My sister Lena’s boyfriend Dominic has French parents who he says don’t speak any English at all. Dominic could just translate for them, but if our parents our meeting his, is there a more convenient way or will he just have to translate all the time?
Like, what if his parents just want to communicate with ours without Dominic or Lena? Do they just use the voice to translated text?
two personal experiences i can add:
i went to a resort in cuba and met a group from quebec. we were best friends and hung out at the open bar every night, but we couldn’t do much more than say hi and smile when we passed each other during the day
i moved to a city and used to go to the polish bar near my apartment a lot. i’d hang out with a bunch of old, fat czech dudes. never understood a word they said, never figured out how to properly say Tyskie, but always a ton of laughs and the only time i ever had vodka that i actually liked the taste of
Żywiec!
Also, I didn’t know Asahi owns Tyskie. Heineken owns Żywiec.
yeah, i didn’t even try to order that one haha
