Ahh yes the blanket shit on Americans post.

Speak for yourselves. As a Latino born from Mexican immigrants, I speak English and Spanish poorly 😢

My 3 favorite experiences with language as an American:

(1) My Jamaican coworker who I couldn't understand for the life of me and my Ukrainian coworker who my Jamaican couldn't understand at all, the Ukrainian coworker understood the Jamaican coworker just fine though and I understood my Ukrainian coworker just fine. Basically it turns into a fun game of telephone whenever we need to talk.

(2) My former coworker from Haiti who no one but the hiring manager and I could understand, the best part about this is that I didn't know he had an accent. I just didn't hear it somehow. He was a great guy, he went back home a few years ago when his mother passed. Got stuck due to the pandemic and never came back to the company. I hope he's doing well.

(3) My former coworker from Guatemala insisting English wasn't my first language as to him it sounded like English was my second language at best. I've been working on it since then. I still suck at it.

Um, plenty of Europeans speak 3 or more languages. Native language, language of the country you're living in, and English.

Americans have trouble with any accent that isn't the blandest, nails on chalkboard accent.

Once had one ask me if I was speaking English when I spoke to him (for context I am Irish, the north bit)

Excuse me, but as an American I take offense to this meme. I speak 4 languages, English, Southern, Bostonian, and Spanish /s

Oh look, it's the same old reposted garbage meme that I have seen on Reddit hundreds of times.

You are

Your

🤣

Well, as an Indian with a love for anime, I speak 3 languages and am learning a 4th (Japanese).

मुळात माझी मातृभाषा मराठी आहे. आणि मी बरीच वर्ष महाराष्ट्रातच राहिलीय...

लेकिन school और दोस्तों के वजह से हिंदी भी बोल लेता है. और तो और, इन दोनो की लिपी एक जैसी ही होने के कारण पढणे मे भी दिक्कत नही आति.

わたしはあにめがすきですから、にほんごをべんきょうおします。今は、にほんごのうりょうくしけんのN5できました。今年の１２月にN4できますよ。

And I plan on learning more soon 🙃.

Many indians speak 4+ languages easily , and we dont even notice that 😅

The only good thing that the Americanization brought is, that, except the French, the world can communicate with each other in English.

Americans: "I Don't think about you guys at all."

I'll never understand this attitude that Europeans have towards Americans. I thought we were friends.

Many Americans actually are bilingual or are studying another language to become bilingual.

Some of my collegemates know 6 languages(India)

Hey we speak two languages...English and Bad english....

面白いね。メキシコがアメリカの近くにあるのに、アメリカの大分がスペイン語を全然はなせないねｗ！私もスペイン語が習いたいけど、日本語もうＰａｉｎｉｎｔｈｅａｓｓだよ！

The nice thing about language is, if enough people are wrong they eventually become right.
