Fayol!

Tittut!
Kul med så många reaktioner på mina America VS Sweden inlägg (dock är ni svennar lite dåliga på att kommentera ;) jag vet ju att ni läser ^^).
En fråga; ser det ut som att jag kan ngt asiatiskt språk? Liksom kollar man på mig och tänker, hmm, ja hon har säkert thailändska som andra språk? haha. När jag jobbade häromdagen skulle jag hjälpa 2 kunder med någon produkt som dom tydligen letade efter. Dom började prata med mig och det var varken svenska eller engelska. Jag frågade om dom kunde något av de två nämnda språken men dom bara skakade på huvudet och fortsatte försöka kommunicera med mig på whatever språk dom pratade. Rätt intressant situation, jag gjorde mitt bästa med att försöka förstå vad dom letade efter och visade dom lite olika alternativ för att chansa mig fram haha, men det var tydligen inte det dom letade efter.
Alltså det roliga var ju att dom insisterade på att prata deras språk med mig och anta att jag kanske skulle förstå (försök att inte se ut som ett frågetecken i den situationen!). Jo men jag kan ju åka till Ryssland och försöka mig på att kommunicera på svenska med dom. Det blir nog lyckat haha.
Jag ber om ursäkt till dessa kunder för att jag inte kunde hjälpa er bättre och för att jag inte kunde erat språk. My bad liksom haha!

Translation:
Pick-a-boo !
Extremely awesome with a lot of reactions on my America VS Sweden posts!
A question; Do I look like someone who know any Asian language? I mean, do you look at me and think " hmm yeah I'm sure she has Thai as second language" ? haha. When I was working the other day I was going to help two customers with a product they obviously were searching for. They started talking to me and it was clearly not Swedish nor was it English. I asked them if they knew any of the languages, but they just shook their heads and continued trying to communicate with me in whatever language they were speaking. Pretty interesting situation, I must say. I tried to do my best to understand what they were looking for, and showed them different options, randomly haha, but apparently nothing was what they were searching for.
I mean, the funny part here was the fact that they really continued speaking their language and assuming I understood it (try not to look like a question mark in that situation!). Well sure, I mean, I could go to like Russia and speak Swedish there and assume that they will understand me. LOL. I'm sure that'll be a success!
So I want to apologies to these two ladies for not being able to help you and not knowing you're language. My bad haha.

Haha that's hilarious. I suppose because I AM Chinese, a lot of people try to talk to me in Mandarin...but I don't understand it at all and have to explain that I speak Cantonese! It must be even stranger for you- why on earth would they carry on speaking to you in their language haha!

That's hilarious! Though I guess it must be hard for them huh? It would suck to be talking to someone in one language and not understanding anything others say. Oh well, hopefully that doesn't happen to you again :)

P.S. Thanks for stopping by. I should probably clear up that it really depends on what Katherine Heigl and Adam Sandler movie it is...it's just sometimes..well haha I don't know:P

Haha... well I guess it doesn't look like I speak any European languages but I speak French! I guess the people were just hoping you would understand them.
