@to @smeg Yeah that's clearly fairer than the initial post, whose goal seems to be a "funny" generalization of the french people.
Try the life hack on some of my relatives and you'll get frenglish that you won't understand anyway.
There's also the life hack that consists in trying to learn a bit of the language of the country you're in. Even if you suck, it will always be appreciated as a form of respect, in any country. And they'll offer to speak english naturally, if they're able to.
