why can't men talk the same way with another language?

Practice, practice, practice.\n\nYou sound shy. My boyfriend had to learn English too. When we met he barely spoke English, but it didn't stop the attraction. Once we started dating he decided to get to know the language better. He still gets tongue tied around Americans but we understand each other perfectly. (he says 80%). Either way...it just takes practice. So suffer a little now and you will feel better later.\n\nGood luck. It worked for me...and I am so glad that we met.

I think that's possible but we do not all speak or think in the same language and that make a start to the difference,History reminds us what a same language tried to do and how it failed so in order for this to come we would all have to decide what we are not going to do againe.

Love does not sees languages. It doesnt sees the color or culture.it looks upon the adjustment from both.

Hmmm, if you're referring to language, it's the fact the many languages have gendered nouns and others don't. Among the those with gendered nouns, the correspondences across languages are difficult to establish: Germans say Der Mund (masculine). Spaniards say la boca (feminine). English speakers say the mouth (genderless). Honey (miel) is masculine in French but feminine in Spanish.

For the same reason some Americans say "Dude" far too often...

All living languages have a slang. But I strongly disagree that slang bastardises a language. Quite on the contrary, it enriches it. Certain ideas cannot possibly be accurately said without using slang. For example, try using any expression in academic English to say "son of a bítch". Anything you find will be a washed-out version of the original expression.

Sure they can. With practice. It's because the Japanese language does not distinguish between /l/ and /r/, ınstead using a sound somewhere between the two of them. If you've been speaking nothing but Japanese for your whole life, it's very difficult during conversation to constantly try to make your 'r's and 'l's distinct.\n\nTo comment on alyck's comment, actually they're not bouncing willy-nilly between /r/ and /l/. It's that their single sound is between them and sounds more like an /r/ when we expect an /l/ and more like an /l/ when we expect an /r/.  In fact, they're using the same sound in both. Like how it seems to us that a lot of Europeans say 'wery vell', when actually they're using the same half-w, half-v sound in both words.\n\n\nIt's the same reason so many Europeans pronounce the two th sounds as /t/, /d/, /z/, /s/ or whatever.\n\nAnd the same reason we English speakers so mutilate sounds like 'ö' when we learn foreign languages!

That is their language, thats why.\nSame reason English uses the same word for 3-4 different things and has the same and sometimes different spellings for the same word.

its not just your guy nor is just guys, some women dont listen either. its called selective deafness, they only hear what they want to hear, next time he asks you to do something pretend you didnt hear, he will soon get the message.

Like anyother lang-uish (such as spanglish, taglish, etc), it is easy to use for those who are learning the language at the early stages or for those who have difficulty reconciling english and the external language. It gets annoying at times where the two languages do not mix (for me, I have yet to hear od singlish but I have many instances of spanglish and taglish). No, I do not believe it is weird. It is simply something that happens to simply complicated multilingual people.

No, French men are much like men from any other part of the world.  I think the reason he is so charming and seducing is two-fold.  First, it's probably because he really was charming, polite, well-mannered, etc.  Also, however, I bet in part it's because you're American.  The French are seen by Americans as romantic.  The foreign is exotic.  There's something sexy about an accent.  So you got lucky with a really nice guy, and that, combined with a cultural stereotype and a media that supports it, makes him seem like Prince Charming.  Trust me, though.  There's still plenty of rude, stuck-up, self-righteous men over there; America doesn't have a monopoly.

I was told by an American only a few days ago the answer to this. Its very much like us listening to Chinese speaking Cantonese we can't tell the difference between them and yet they have very different accents, the Americans hear us in the same way, we all sound the same! Sad really.

It makes sense, I mean anything is possible. Dialects are passed on form one person to another in various cultures. I never though about it but why not with animals. It probably wouldn't be as obvious because there isn't the numbed of different words to observe but why not!

Some guys do, but most of them appreciate when you tell them how you feel in words.\n\nPersonally I think that's because most men don't like to read and also written words can be interpreted other ways. Spoke words can give a feel to what you are trying to say!\n\nThat's what I think, but I may be right....

Men are men! Some speak different languages, some different ideas and values. However, they are all men. The way they treat you is an individual thing, depends on the man. God bless****

Some Americans are so accustomed to hearing only English for the majority of their life that it DOES make them uncomfortable when there are others nearby speaking a foreign language.  I had to laugh at one of my friends when we stopped at a little gas and go place to get some cold drinks on the way home from work. There were two guys behind us in line joking and talking in Spanish. When we got back to the car my friend commented he didn't like it when they spoke gibberish, "they might be saying bad things about me."\nI said, "so what, as long as you don't know it won't hurt."\n\nThe Hispanics were okay with them speaking language foreign to us but guess what happened the next time?\n\nA few days later, we were standing in line at the same store and the same guys came in speaking Spanish. I poked my friend on the arm and said "Just nod your head once in awhile and go along."\nWhen I started speaking to my friend in German, the two Hispanics stopped joking and were looking at us a bit disturbed. Now guess who was uncomfortable? It would seem they too were ill at ease when they couldn't understand what was being said.\n\nI would say it is rude if in a group the people can speak the same language and two of them  switch to another language that excludes the rest. That suggests they have some secret they don't want to share with the group and makes the others feel left out.  \n\nWhen people  are in a multicultural environment they should be expecting to hear other languages. When I was in Vienna, Austria for a week I think I heard 90% of every language on earth. When I heard one I thought was new I would politely ask if anyone could interpret English and I would try to learn what the language was and where it was from. All but one group was complimented that I cared enough to learn about them. But they had no interpreter and that may have caused them to be uncomfortable. For the most part they were glad to share what they knew, proving to me that most people really do have a good heart and a wish to get along with the others in the world.

Do you have something against that language? \nWhy did he use this language rather than any other?\nAny other? like what a dialect?
