Welcome
We're not The Onion! Not affiliated with them in any way! Not operated by them in any way! All the news here is real!
The Rules
Posts must be:
- Links to news stories from...
- ...credible sources, with...
- ...their original headlines, that...
- ...would make people who see the headline think, “That has got to be a story from The Onion, America’s Finest News Source.”
Comments must abide by the server rules for Lemmy.world and generally abstain from trollish, bigoted, or otherwise disruptive behavior that makes this community less fun for everyone.
And that’s basically it!

They didn't learn French before moving to a French country? Just... wow.
You can move to most European countries and learn the language from the welcoming people there that can switch to English or use a translator if necessary.
In France you are just a outcast, this is due to French people being assholes with their noses up their ass.
I can agree that some of my compatriots can be rough with tourists, and I apologise for that. I personally try to help everyone I come across. There is, however, a big difference between coming for a few weeks for vacation, only speaking English, and believing you can come to live and not make the slightest of effort to learn the tongue. People will notice you can not learn how to ask for a baguette, and in return, will not make efforts either.
