Only four languages? 😂 That’s three times more languages than most Austrians or Germans! 😂 (I don't mean to be rude) I work with a lot of Austrian people, and I think only two or three of them understand English, and that’s it! 😂 They synchronize every movie, so how do they manage to learn? In Slovenia, we don’t do that, so we have to learn English if we want to watch movies. 😂 But really, with English, you can travel all over Europe. If you want to order a beer, everyone knows that word! 😂 The only country where I had a language barrier was Italy, and I really felt lost there. After studying the language for four years, the only phrases I know are asking where the bathroom is and saying I want a beer! 😂 And yes… we drive on the normal side of the road. 😂

Yeah, I'm not sure about Austrians, I've been there and few spoke English.
Most Australians (born here like me) don't speak multiple languages other than what they learn in school (and soon forget). I've travelled around the world and have not really had many issues with language, most people are accommodating and eventually the message gets through.
Exactly…few people 😂
In Slovenia, kids need to learn other languages…there are only 2 million of us…we need to communicate with other people, or we are f….😂 I went to school for tourism so I could learn 😂 but like you said…, the message always gets through. If not with mouth, then with hands 💪
Mouth and hands huh? Hmm, that could make for some interesting "communications." 😇
Hahaha, now I see it…ok, wrong expression 😂 better to say with words and hands? 😂
I think maybe mouths and hands is better than words and hands...but ok, let's just say words and hands. 😀
Never mind, people probably already saw what I wrote. 😂I just hope they don't see the hidden meaning of those words 😂
I reckon some might have. I did. 🤔
