In addition to the above translation issues and playing telephone, I'd like to take this opportunity to quote terry pratchett, who has a quote for every situation.
​
The forest of Skund was indeed enchanted, which was nothing unusual on the Disc, and was also the only forest in the whole universe to be called – in the local language – Your Finger You Fool, which was the literal meaning of the word Skund. The reason for this is regrettably all too common. When the first explorers from the warm lands around the Circle Sea travelled into the chilly hinterland, they filled in the blank spaces on their maps by grabbing the nearest native, pointing at some distant landmark, speaking very clearly in a loud voice, and writing down whatever the bemused man told them. Thus were immortalised in generations of atlases such geographical oddities as Just A Mountain, I Don’t Know, What? and, of course, Your Finger You Fool.

There's an idea in philosophy, tabula rasa, or blank slate. The basic idea is that everybody is an empty slate waiting to be filled when they are born. You can apply this to the body, too. A person's immune system can only react to what it has encountered before. Babies haven't encountered much.
