Im just trying to understand the world!
How do you feel about a foreigner using a translated phrase or expression from his culture or language!?
Every now and then I would have a conversation with a new comer to the states! It feels so awkward to me when they use their sayings, phrases and expressions translated into English!? It does not only sound stupid but also seem to be out of place!! Is it only me or there is someone else who share this type of feeling about this?! Is it rude to act like you understand what he means or just get the situation more awkward by asking what it means?!
