Indeed. I have a thesarus that tells in the introduction the story of three gentlemen learning English as a second language who would:
read English books and meet together at one another's houses to talk English.

On this evening Mr. X was entertaining his friends. The conversation started like this:

"Good evening, Mr. X. I have the pleasure to ask after your heallth, and the health of your wife and children."

"Thank you, Mr. Y. I am well, and so is my wife, but it is my great sorrow that I have no children. My wife is unbearable."

"That is a great tragedy, Mr. X. You will forgive me what I say now, but you know we have the obligation to correct one another. I understand that the proper English work for Mrs. X's unfortunate condition is, she is impregnable."

At this point Mr. Z spoke up. "And you will forgive me, Mr. Y, but I must tell you that the proper English work for Mrs. X's most unfortunate condition is that she is inconceivable."
