>„Nachdem ich meinen Magen etwas beschwichtigt hatte, bemerkte ich in derselben Wirtsstube einen Herrn mit zwei Damen, die im Begriff waren abzureisen. Dieser Herr war ganz grün gekleidet, trug sogar eine grüne Brille. […] Der Grüne wünschte, daß ich ihm ein Hotel in Göttingen empfehlen möchte, und ich riet ihm, dort von dem ersten besten Studenten das Hotel de Brühbach zu erfragen. […] Beide Damen fragten mich zu gleicher Zeit: ob im Hotel de Brühbach auch ordentliche Leute logierten. Ich bejahte es mit gutem Gewissen, und als das holde Kleeblatt abfuhr, grüßte ich nochmals zum Fenster hinaus. Der Sonnenwirt lächelte gar schlau und mochte wohl wissen, daß der Karzer von den Studenten in Göttingen Hotel de Brühbach genannt wird.“

Even if they don't say bonjur?
My cousin lives say that the Frenchs pisses off if you don't say "bonjour" or "s'il vous plait"
>>75092851
Protip: Don't try it here around Jerusalem.
>>75092893
That's true. We also don't use soap and eat frogs and snails daily.
>>75092893
I heard the French get pissed off if you try to speak French to them
>>75092897
You mean don't ask for directions? Or don't wander around aimlessly?

She lived six months there she didn't told me that, only the bonjour part
>>75092868
>Brasilia thinks its white
That's cute, lad.
>>75092893
We're really strict on politeness. You don't have to say "bonjour" specifically, but it's common courtesy here to greet the person you're asking for help.
>>75092936
Someone probably told her "you didn't say bonjour", but any greeting would have been fine.
>>75092976
So it's the closer to the equivalent of excuses me rather than Hello.
>Tourists ask me how to go to local museum
>I direct them to opposite direction where fucked up people resides in
>>75093010
Exactly. "Excusez-moi" is also used, but it's considered less polite than "bonjour".
>>75093042
That's kinda funny it's the opposite in English where Hello would be less polite than excuse me (at least when asking for help).
>>75093094
It rarely happens, but a bus driver got angry at me once because I said excuse me without greeting him. Could the same thing happen in America if you said hello instead of excuse me?
>>75093130
No, unless you're talking to a nutcase.
>>75093016
You live in turkey, everyone's fucked up.
>>75093130
Never.
