People's Reaction When You Start Speaking Their Language.

Went to a pub in Reykjavik.

English Brother-in-law had finally decided to learn the language after like 15 years of living there. Had just about learned enough to order the drinks and have a basic conversation.

He orders slowly. The barman looks increasingly perplexed. He finishes and looks up, proud of his first real test of Icelandic.

"Sorry mate, I dunno what you're saying" says the barman in a thick Australian accent.

Honestly, just try English. Most small European countries speak it better than we do.
