You wrote "Despite the stereotype, it's not Americans running around telling foreigners how to pronounce English words in their native tongue."
Sure, technically 'Americans running around telling foreigners how to pronounce their own words in their native tongue.' is different, but it seems an even lower threshold.
- rendall 5y agoIf you'd like to address the original point, I'm happy to discuss. No, Americans generally do not tell people how to pronounce English words in their own native language. Not really sure the point you're making here.
- nautilius 5y agoI'm glad that you have full control over every American all of the time, but my experience is quite different.
- rendall 5y agoYou're telling us all that you have, on a regular basis, seen Americans telling non-English speakers how to pronounce English words while speaking the foreign tongue?
- nautilius 5y agoReread your own comment to which I answered, which is quite different from what you're arguing now. Honestly, I can't tell if you're just trolling with your baiting blatant indiscriminate generalizations 'No speaker of any other language in the world', etc. There's no point in arguing any of it, it speaks for itself.
