My local café yesterday:
Me: pour ici today.
Mohammed and other barista laugh.
Me: oops, pour ici aujourd’hui. (Holds up computer) J’ai mon ordinateur!
Mohammed: (something I don’t understand in French)
Me: errrr pouvez repeter?
Him: « ordi », you can say ordi for computer.
Me: just as I think I’ve nailed a sentence…
Him: French is hard!
I appreciate my moka comes with French slang advice.
Also, this is Montréal, in case the slang you speak is different where you are, so don’t come for me!
