I say “gracias” all the time. But now I’m wondering…
Went to the local Mexican joint, waiter started talking to my Filipina wife in Spanish. She gamely answered back with a word or two, was obviously confused.
Now I’m scared that people will think I’m mistaking them for Mexican when I toss out a word or two.
Just to fuck with my wife; She was talking to a friend in Tagalog when I walked in the kitchen.
“Hey! It’s $friend on the phone! Say hi!”
“Nǐhǎo.”
It’s worth noting that Tagalog and some other Filipino languages share a pretty large vocabulary with Spanish actually. Of course they have huge differences in other ways but she may have actually understood a bit.
That wasn’t the point of the comment though I know.
Just say ACK or something
The image chosen to go with these words is, <chef’s kiss>!
ごちそうさまでした。
If I was that waiter, and it was an honest attempt at being polite by your mom, I’d have been happy with that friendly customer. Kind people, you are my tribe and I love you all dearly!
