Wow!
I feel fortunate because I speak English and French.
I love Americans and love French people.
I lived in Paris for one year and, man!, if you speak the language, even those who knows the basic,and explain your reasons they are very helpful. You have no idea how many times French people helped me.
But give me a break! I was walking one day and an American old lady started asking me in English, without even asking me if I speak English or not, informations about... I don't know what it was because I thought it was very rude of her not asking "Do you speak English?".
I told her in my language, Portuguese, I don't speak English or French.
It seems this old lady follows me because I was in my country and she came with a coke can and demanded me where on earth was the can recycle bin?
I'm sorry but I told her that in my country we don't have it and almost told her to get the can back to her country since it was her countries garbage she was holding.
lol
A friend of mine showed her where was the right garbage to put her coke can.
I don't like the when Americans like this old lady behaves this way.
I love Americans and have many American friends.
I am telling these stories just to say that this kind of generalization and stereotypes makes no sense.
I believe that some Americans will have this antipathy towards French people till the end of the times.
What about Germans? Polish or Russian people.
Oh! I am Brazilian.
I would like to inform you that our capital is BrasÃlia and that samba has nothing to do with salsa or other Latin musics and dances.
:)
There are many things you don't know about Brazil and I also don't like the stereotypes.
Well, I believe that there are many errors for some readers amuse themselves and I will not read to correct them.
I loved the post.
I will copy the photo to my blog.
Thanks for sharing Alex!
