I answered no I want a normal salad. She didn't understand my answer, she had asked me "Soup or Salad". And the dressings for a salad I did't understand any of the six different ones. I had her repeat it 3 times. They never slow down for not native speakers, like the French.biebkriebelshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01539958495933835606noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7071605392067240587.post-46426353969111658112011-01-20T00:12:53.682-05:002011-01-20T00:12:53.682-05:00my favorite story is at Jamba Juice, were the cash...my favorite story is at Jamba Juice, were the cashier (also difficult word to pronounce) asked me if I wanted anything else today. Not expecting this kindness and eagerness to sell I had to ask 3 times what he said. I really really thought he spoke Spanish and I almost replied, sorry I don;t speak Spanish. Fortunately I understood before I made a complete fool of myself.<br /><br />I feel exactly the same. Litening improves after a while, especially listening to the radio and TV helps a lot for me. But yeah, we never learned in scholl how people actually say things.Sylvia Neumannhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08705758081086636937noreply@blogger.com
