Re: jokes in foreign languages

People pick up slang more quickly than anything else. So what she'll be hearing when you make jokes is a series of foul words and innuendos separated by nonsense. Seriously? That's gonna be WAY more awkward for her.


View original post I do want to point out that there is no need to "respect" the things about other people that make no sense to you. Simply tolerate and deal with them. That would be my approach, at any rate.

Yeah? Deathwatch, you're a person who finds it unnecessary to treat other people's beliefs respectfully? Are you sure?
