The Rules

Posts must be:

Links to news stories from...
...credible sources, with...
...their original headlines, that...
...would make people who see the headline think, “That has got to be a story from The Onion, America’s Finest News Source.”

Comments must abide by the server rules for Lemmy.world and generally abstain from trollish, bigoted, or otherwise disruptive behavior that makes this community less fun for everyone.

And that’s basically it!

They didn't learn French before moving to a French country? Just... wow.

You can move to most European countries and learn the language from the welcoming people there that can switch to English or use a translator if necessary.

In France you are just a outcast, this is due to French people being assholes with their noses up their ass.

Not in the Netherlands. Nobody will speak dutch to you, and will switch to English immediately if they detect an accent.
