People’s Reaction When You Start Speaking Their Language.
The French is on point. I live in Quebec, I speak French all day, but it’s not my first language. When I was in Paris, I started speaking French, but they kept answering me in English.
That’s the problem right there. They tend to be subbing asinine whatever language you speak.
And of course they’ll complain about your French accent while speaking to you with an even worse English accent with no self awareness whatsoever.
I’m speaking of Parisian assholes here of course, I’ve heard the rest of the country is actually quite pleasant (and also tend to dislike Parisians) but I haven’t visited yet, only Paris unfortunately.
