Foreign Speakers


Premi

Recommended Posts

Was watching this on TV:

https://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/p09wvs3k/inside-dubai-playground-of-the-rich-series-1-episode-2

Quite random, but maybe @Soulfinder and @dalsingh101can give their opinion (and any other Sangat in the West). Here in UK, when foreign people speak English as a second language, even if it is clear to me, they will sometimes put subtitles on TV programs. 

I think this is quite offensive to them, as they often speak better/clearer English (to me) than a native white English speaker who has a strong accent (like some Northern English, Scottish, Ulster accents, or even say, Americans from the South)

What do you think ?
