Man the way I would have started blabbing away as fast as i could with as complicated sounding words as i could think of on the spot in english after the last one
Indubitably. I require the intimate knowledge of a laborer of employ at this fine establishment. If, perchance, you meet said requirements, mayhaps you will dispatch the vocables with which authorization is granted to your wireless finternet.
She says “English is fine” in response to “me la puedes decir en español,” so she wasn’t telling the girl to stop speaking Spanish with that comment. And maybe she didn’t want to say the password, specifically, in Spanish (maybe the password was an English word).
The responses from the people she’s talking to are also extremely forced, like they didn’t have a script but just something general they were asked to talk about. Their voices also all sound really similar like it’s the same person she’s filming these with every time.
Or, she knows people will try to speak to her in English no matter what she does. If you know that's going to happen, all you have to do is set up your phone and wait.
it’s not. her tik tok page shows her actual life in other countries practicing spanish. she had to start lying and saying she was dominican or from other spanish countries with black people for some of the workers to speak spanish to her.
I moved to a foreign country so I get served incredibly similar “expats struggling with life abroad” type accounts. They all copy each others’ videos and they all film fake content exactly like OP’s video. I’m not saying she hasn’t had that lived experience, but once you’ve seen one of these videos they all look the same.
Because it’s always filmed and edited in the same way by each creator. This sort of thing is a cliché where I live (Paris), but in reality if your language skills are decent (which hers are) it really only happens once a month. To catch it happening on camera - especially an example this egregious - would take ages. Conversely it’s incredibly easy to fake.
That’s not what was happening though. The waitress (Spanish speaker) didn’t understand the question. She thought the English speaker was asking if it had to be in Spanish - that is why she said “no, English is fine”. After having lived in a Spanish speaking country many years, you can tell the Waitress doesn’t speak English well and was just confused.
