Like I just don’t get their philosophy. Foreign languages were always my worst subject but if some isn’t speaking English I dont really care doesn’t bother me. And as bad as I am at languages getting taught a phrase here and there by someone makes me happy and usually makes them very happy if I reuse it with the down the road.
Agreed, French was my worst subject in university. Frigging hated it. That doesn’t mean I think non-english speakers should go hang. It doesn’t inconvenience me to press 1 for service in English. It isn’t a difficult task for food manufacturers to use a computer to translate stuff to other languages. Do they not do that for other countries?
I saw a Facebook post about an actor voicing Spiderman in foreign translations of the film and this simple fact was somehow laughworthy to some. It’s like their attitude is that accommodating non-english speakers is “woke” and a demand from “special snowfkakes” even though the same accommodation is made for English speakers. Squid Game was dubbed over in English for us, along with lots of other foreign shows
