I found this image and thought it was quite interesting.

I would like to know what opinions people who have visited the countries shown in the image have.

The only experience I have had of this kind was when I visited the Dominican Republic for a few months and was able to interact with people from Haiti. They reacted with great interest and surprise when I tried to learn words in their language or when I tried to greet them in their language. Most of the time they reacted with laughter at my poor pronunciation. 😁

From my experience in France, they’re not really like that. They actually dig it when people put in the effort to speak French.

Same.

Fortunately, we are far from Spain, France, Germany, or any other country invaded by Muslims.

Legit from France!

I haven't had experience with Scandinavians or Eastern Europe, but younger Germans tend to prefer switching to English after you try because they want to practice their own English instead (motivated responses). Latin countries really want you to try and go out of there way to help you learn. Ironic.

The vibes in Central American and South American countries are totally different.

It's hilarious speaking French words in an Aussie accent.

It wasn't on the map, but in China if you say "nihao" (hello) they react by saying things like:

  • woah, you speak Chinese!
  • you're so smart!
  • Wow your Chinese is amazing!

Great stories, thank you for participating.

Lol and the isles are so privileged, they don't have to speak a foreign language that they don't know how it's like. ROFL!

France is the opposite:

"If you don't speak our language we'll turn our back on you."
