Haha that reminds me of a friend of mine who had the exact same experience in the US while trying his best accent. The waiter answered him in french and he felt embarrassed about it, but as i told him he was probably only trying to be nice and/or efficient.
Ah, speaking french.
Damned if you do, damned if you don’t.
The first mistake he made was speaking fr*nch
If it was perfect French, or even close of it, there would have been no way for the lady to be absolutely certain that she was a foreigner and answer her in English without any hesitation, now wouldn’t it~.
If you want to speak French in France, speak English first. Magic trick
Giga chad french
Probably said croissant in that weird American way
Must not have been this impeccable
the french: we want our languages to be a world language
the French also: if you try speak our language we will act like you didn’t so you wont try that again
I was in a bakery near the border once. I ordered in french. I was answered in german. I refused to speak german and continued in french. She refused to speak french and continued in german.
It was so stupid… I would do it again.
avec ceci madame ?
I mean there was no way to know for sure they would have understood the “et avec ça ?” (=what else?) coming after, so Im with the cashier here.
