Let’s not forget the Germs when they go on camping holidays abroad thinking everybody speaks their language
love when I’m trying to talk to someone in French (a language I am currently doing a degree in) and they somehow clock the anglois stench off of me and start responding in English
Which English speakers are willing to learn another language?
It’s something every English native speaker that tries to learn a language has to deal with
Dutch, Scandis and Hans are the worst for it, whiff of an accent or one step off on pronunciation and it’s back to English, the best advice i got was to just keep speaking the target language at them, stubbornly and brutally, if they answer your question in English, you’re obviously semi understandable.
Southern Europeans are much better with it
It’s hard to believe you’ve met Italians unwilling to teach you blasphemies. We would teach them even to Pierre
Are you speaking to Pedro in Spain or in Ireland?
Yo fuck that. I mean i understand every expats pain when they want to learn. But goddamn every conversation I’m gonna have sounds like half a stroke and I am done being someone’s Dutch teacher.
I’d despise the world where polish would be the international language. Imagine the chaos
I am surprised the baguette people were not added 😂 cause I know for a fact they do not enjoy speaking English.
Undskyld
I love speaking french with people learning, they’re so cute “yeah you did a basic error but you’re trying your best, keep it up :)”
If I speak French badly and they want me to speak English, I’ll just remind them I’m from Liverpool and thus unintelligible in English also.
Siempre que quieras cariño.
Italians don’t know English how can we don’t speak Italian with English if we can’t communicate in other ways?
My American neighbours refuse to speak Norwegian because “You speak English”.
For 2 years now I’ve told them dra til helvete, and they just smile and say “Thank you”.
Y VOLVERÍA A NACER ESPAÑOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL
We speak the language of love 🍆
Unironically yes. Watching something do their best to speak spanish, even if they fail, always makes my day
Dude anyone here would be happy to see someone trying to talk portuguese.
I don’t get the last one…
“who is willing to speak your language with english speakers”?
Pierre is the worst offender of them all. Outright refuses to speak english, but when you make an effort to communicate in his native language he still pretends he doesn’t understand a single word of what you have said unless you have the perfect pronounciation, straight out of the Académie Française
Untrue, Greeks are absolutely amazed when a foreigner speaks our language.
We are this 🤏🏼 close to building a statue for him.
It’s the point that they de-barbarize themselves.
I will speak German, and I will speak it poorly
also wänn ich afange schwizerdütsch mit dene schwätze denn hemmer beidi nüt devo…
Do you really want more people speaking Danish ? 😛
When Spanish do this to me, I just speak English very fast in a heavy accent, they go back to Spanish quickly.
Also Italian
I’ll never forget a Susan on Erasmus I pissed off because I refused to talk back in Spanish. Could’ve been a different story if she didn’t look like a Susan while I was drunk as fuck.
Spain and England should kiss
All you have to do to train German is speaking loudly in another language in public transport.
Just in a few minutes a grumpy elderly person will materialize and scream „Wir sind hier in Deutschland, sprechen Sie gefälligst Deutsch!“
Good luck and have fun!
Bah vas-y plains toi, mais si tu es incapable de tenir une conversation avec et que tu te plains aussi… Le beurre et l’argent du beurre…
I wouldn’t mind them speaking Portuguese
If they didn’t say gracias instead of obrigado
Find one tuga who wont offer you at least a banquet when you speak one sentence in awful portuguese with them
I’ll speak German with you. Unless you’re the guy with the DNA test who found out he is 17,3 % German.
I am currently learning Spanish, actually and my greatest fear is to be talking to native speakers haha. That speed really is something else. But as a somewhat fresh A2, I still have quite a ways to go anyways. But I will get there, eventually – and then I’ll love to do it, just like with English (which I eventually ended up studying at the university).
I could listen to French chicks trying to pronounce “squirrel” all day
Me: on my way to work.
Barry: speaks German
I’ll never accept a meme about languages from an Irish who can’t even speak their own language
based on the Brits I’ve seen in Spain and France it’s questionable what language they’ve actually learned. Not that anyone can understand a Geordie in the first place. Butchery.
If I heard “yo kweeeeero ooona” I’d definitely switch to English as fast as I can.
Nah in Málaga people will keep speaking English even though you would perfectly answer in Spanish lol there’s a real obsession over there on speaking English
ik bedoel ik wil het best hoor, maar dat is niet efficiënt en tijd is geld.
Don’t lie tatty farmer, all your tourists here speak with us in English. Well spoke, now that you insulted us this way, I will contact my member of parliament and propose a motion to oblige every Portuguese person to only speak with Irish through Portuguese insults

You have met frogs that were unwilling to speak French with you?
