>>1029828I'm a native English speaker, and not only do I LOVE and appreciate foreigners trying to speak English, I will even change the way I speak, including slowing down and using more Latin or Germanic-based words (depending on your first language) to make myself more understandable to YOU. I'll probably even buy you a drink at my favorite bar and play some pool with you if you want; any fag who flew halfway around the world to visit my town and check out my culture is unequivocally based and welcome no matter how bad they are at speaking my language.
