This fool got schooled

Today was a momentous day, for my son actually taught me a Chinese word! When he told his Chinese speaking friends "我不講中文" (I don't speak Chinese), he told me they called him "/sha3 bi1/," so he retorted, "/Wo3 bu2shi4 sha3bi1-a!/"

I thought he must have heard it wrong, like they probably said something like 傻瓜 /sha3gua1/.

"No it was /sha3-bi1/… it means something like 'idiot.'"

I wasn't so sure when I looked it up on Google Translate, but it immediately spat out 傻逼 which, like 傻瓜, means "fool"!
