Survey>>>>>If someone started yelling at you in a foreign language?

Today I had someone yelling at me in Spanish because I wouldn't let him use a dryer. (On busy days dryers are for washing customers) I did not understand what he was saying. Would this upset you or would you just let it roll off your back? I just kind of laughed and waved bye bye!

i would yell back at him i only know a little bit of spanish from school. it would sound something like this:


"es un platano sucio! No lo come!"


(it's a dirty banana, don't eat it!)
Reply:i'd just walk away like you did
Reply:At first I might feel offended or confused, but later I will ignore that person who yelled at me...





Just to let you know, it's my method to tell off someone using a language that they don't understand if they ever pissed me off... ^_^
Reply:That's when I start using sign language! All nationality's understand it.
Reply:haha. i'd start yelling at him in gibberish. maybe that would shut him up.


XD

Reply:Good for you! I usually say something like "oh for God's sake! I don't understand you. Speak English if you want to tell me something!! Hey! I had to learn English so why not you?????" I can be a bitc* sometimes.

Reply:Petition to NOT modify our native language to include any foreign language: grin





serious note:


Surviving the language learning curve,you'll probably take a spanish course at some point. If you customers who are spanish speaking...write " Durante días ocupados los secadores son para lavar a clientes" means..On busy days dryers are for washing customers
Reply:Answer in a different language, like German :) ! confuse him. really fun to do.
Reply:I don't see anything funny about this type of communication barrier. I would try to understand what he is saying by body language. I would also let him know I don't understand Spanish, and try to find a way to speak to each other. Laughing and walking away is just being ignorant.
