For a native French speaker the patois would probably not be a problem,
but outsiders like us only used to standard French, wed be lost.<br><br>Native
Hiberno-English speakers generally never have a problem with the braid
tang of Glasgow, but for those whove been to elecution and come from the
"proper" districts of the country where Queens English is the only
acceptable dialect, them they are lost!!!!<br><br>Tomás<br><br>----------<br><br><font style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif" size="2"><span></span></font><div class="gmail_quote"><font style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif" size="2"><span style="border-collapse:separate;border-spacing:0px"><span style="text-indent:0px;letter-spacing:normal;font-variant:normal;font-style:normal;font-weight:normal;line-height:normal;border-collapse:separate;text-transform:none;white-space:normal;word-spacing:0px"><span style="text-indent:0px;letter-spacing:normal;font-variant:normal;font-style:normal;font-weight:normal;line-height:normal;border-collapse:separate;text-transform:none;white-space:normal;word-spacing:0px"><span></span></span></span></span></font></div>

<div><br></div><div>For
the entire month of September I'll be in Switzerland with some time in
Chianti, Italy and some time in Munich for Oktoberfest. We may try to
get up into Neidersachsich territory but don't know yet. This will be a
perfect amount of time to see just how offensive (or inoffensive) my
Zuriduutch is and my Bavarian. =^D</div><div><br></div><div>There will
be lots of time to spend with the locals so I'm hoping to be able to get
over my abject *terror* of speaking with native speakers. I'm hoping
they'll prove to be as forgiving as we are here in the States. </div><div><br></div><div>If so, I'll be as "wie glucklich wie ein Made im Speck!" </div><div><br></div><div>Tchuuss!</div><div><br></div>
