Ok, think about it, when someone types or start speaking to you in a foreign type of language is it rude or is it just the funnest thing every in the world to just start talking like them by accident or reading to yourself in there type of voice that u would assume they would speak in. lol Seriously because I catch myself doing that all the time.

What I mean is someone speaking another language that is not native to the listener. you know I'm not the brightest person but you can kinda hint at what some people are trying to say. But to be quite blunt I mean speaking something you don't understand. :) thats all my friend.

I had a reverse experience. There was once a Chinese guy who happened to drop by our house. He was looking for directions to one of the houses around the neighbourhood. Well, you know, being "Chinese", they had a difficult time speaking in Malay. Nonetheless he tried his best to ask. Itu luma Miter Wong, di mana, a? (Where is Mr. Wong's House?). He happend to ask my brother, who doesn't know much Chinese but was also struggling to answer in Chinese. So, he replied. "Wo bu Zhi-dao" (I don't know.) And that guy understood and said, "OH".
After he left, I started to laugh because I knew that my brother was also a beginner in Mandarin, as I am. We ended up imitating that guy albeit on a different subject.

Some languages or dialect had a difficulty distinguishing "f","p" and "b". I had this told by my filipino friend (No offence for filipinoes,I love them). But he being a filipino like to joke about this. So I guess there's no harm relating it here (just for laugh, okay). It goes like this....
Once there was a girl who was so excited to attend her friend's party. So she asked her mom, "Mom, I am inbited (invited) to a farty (party) and I wanna go.
then the Mom, suddenly conscious that her daughter had mispronouced "party with "farty" said, "Not 'farty', but 'Party", you 'stifid!"(stupid).
Again... it's just a joke. Okay. No offence to anyone.

My mother tongue is different from the one used here. So, mostly people are talking to me in that language. Initially I was at loss and tried to work my way around. But I understand now and try to reply in same.
If someone communicates in complete foreign language, I'll be embarrassed and that will make the whole situation funny!
And if I am to speak first, I'd make sure the other person knows my language...
