That's funny considering italian is my first language. %) That's probably the most ignorant thing I've seen you post on this board, DC.<br>Furthermore, foolish and asinine are we? Rather an irrevelant use of adjectives, since this is a welcome thread and there is no need to be serious, nor is anything important really said. And at ANY time when people have asked me what I've said I have provided a translation. Perhaps you're joking after all, but sarcasm often misses me.<br></blockquote><br>Ok so maybe you can speak the language. But do you honestly belive everyone that does it would honestly know if they didn't use something like bable fish? And, like with an arguement somewhere else, you can make those claims all you like but you can't prove it, so it's irrelivant as to whether or not it's your first language or if you truly know how to speak/type it.<br>Also the second they was for the people being greeted, not for the ones greeting them.<p>And would you honestly start speaking a language to someone, in person, without knowing that they know it or not? Honestly you'd make a royal ass out of yourself if you starting rambling in italian when someone comes up to you and says hello in english, or any other language aside from the one you're speaking in responce. So if someone introduces themselves in english use english, if they introduce themselves in italian use italian, ect.. It's not that difficult to comprehend simple rules of communication you know.
