[QUOTE="janie, post: 206168, member: 2982"] Hi there Star .... I giggled when I read your post :) I love to learn how to say greetings in other languages. Whenever I meet anyone from another country I ask them how to say "hello"or "goodbye"... I used to be a homestay mum for students from several different countries. They would stay with me for anything from several weeks - to a year or two. I learnt so many different phrases .... Two of my part time jobs are in retail ... so when I have a tourist as a customer I will greet them in their language .... the look of surprise that crosses their faces is priceless :) The only problem is when they reply and talk too fast in their own language expecting me to understand every single word! :) I would dearly love to travel and visit other cultures.
