Funny way foreign people say stuff

dunnomede?

Have heard a fair few in work as foreign nationals make up 60% of our team.
Such as working in the post room one day one slovakian declared he was gay which subsequently turned out to be that there was post for the isle of man (not i love men).
A polish co-worker who's friend works in an ice-skating rink for cats sorry katering (not cat rink)
Another slovakian mixes up v's and w's (wery good, i lowe that, vhat, vhy, vhere etc)
Any ones you'd like to ad?

There's a new Polish girl that speaks barely any English, She keeps asking me about Irish phrases and words, So she asked "What does the Dog's bollocks mean?" So i explained what it means to her.

Later on that day a customer is looking at a digital camera and asking if the product is any good...she replies "Its the Dogs Bollocks!"

I've been teaching the Pakistani security guard how to talk like a scanger, he comes into the canteen "Whats the story horse?" All the girls couldn't stop laughing. He gets his V's mixed with W's all the time, Same with a guy from school, he used to say "Wally Driwver"

Imagine the amusement in my in laws house when I came back from a drinking session with my brothers in law and announced I was gee eyed:D

SimpleSam06

The wife refers to members of the travelling community as "tinklers" and one of her pals from Thailand does some remarkable things to the word "Limerick". I doubt I could reproduce it in text. One expletive borrowed from English is also "fukki heaw!"

dunnomede?

Surely its not racist. what race are foreign nationals? surely its racist to think that all foreign nationals are the one race.

MIN2511

Ah... i dunno....

I slag everyone including myself....

One thing i find hard to pronounce is 'pizza' i always go 'pitza'

Apparently i used to say 'axed' instead of 'asked'

In fairness, the time between courses can be frustrating.

Yep, and the use of "one" to qualify everything. (I am getting one bus into the town)

Give something 'for' me instead of 'to' me

Depending on their own language group. some people find 'ee' sounds difficult.
So, sheets become sh1ts, the beach becomes the b1tch.

Allegedly, Spanish people cannot hear the difference between cheat and sh1t - how true that is, I don't know.

I dread to think what manner of rude and amusing things I utter when attempting mowic po polsku.

Or heavily pronounce the middle sylable of a word, such as

"Would you mind stepping out of the Ve-HI-cle and blowing into this tube sir":D

or

"that was a good fillum, I like that actor":D
