Bilingual People Share Their Greatest “I Didn’t Know You Spoke the Language” Stories

A Round of Applause

I was eating at a restaurant in Quebec — where seriously everyone speaks at least some English who isn’t super old — and a couple who only spoke English sat there and whined about everyone around them as if no one could understand a word they were saying. It was crazy because we were speaking English (albeit, not so obnoxiously loud as to draw everyone’s attention, as they were) a couple of tables over.

Anyways, it was embarrassing for them at first. Then downright terrible as they even made fun of their waitress right in front of her. Eventually a manager came out and basically told them to screw off. But as they went people were commenting loudly in english, and I’m surprised people didn’t actually clap. billbapapa
