[-] rickyrigatoni@lemm.ee 7 points 1 year ago

You live in sweden but you're not swedish?

Interesting. Almost as if swedes don't exist.

[-] AI_toothbrush@lemmy.zip 1 points 1 year ago

I moved here two weeks ago and from my experience swedish people seem to exist.

[-] echodot@feddit.uk 5 points 1 year ago

Of course they exist. They're the ones that serve the meatballs.

Explain this map of Europe if Swedes are real.

[-] Ross_audio@lemmy.world 9 points 1 year ago

Americans have worse English than the French.

[-] rickyrigatoni@lemm.ee 4 points 1 year ago

French aren't people.

[-] Harbinger01173430@lemmy.world 8 points 1 year ago

Indian English is the future english

It's not our fault that the Latin-Germanic barrier is so difficult to overcome

If at all. At least in Italy, outside of tourist areas or quite often even in tourist areas, you'd have to point and wave to talk or use a translation app. Even 20 somethings barely understood any english.

I lived in spain for 4 months in a tourist spot(out of season) and they couldnt understand our english. They had shops with signs like "we speak english" but they didnt. At least italian is easier to understand with english than spanish. And then theres the french who speak perfect english but refuse to.

Indeed. This meme is funny because quite disconnected from reality
