You know how English speakers something mock the Spanish language by using a lot of A's at the end of words, and the Italian language by using a lot of O's at the end of words. Apparently, the English languages uses a lot of S's, so when people in Europe mock us, they use the S sound a lot.

We also make fun of the soft RRR sound. I mean it's not even a letter/sound in most other languages, the "rolled R" is.

What country do you come from? Edit: Just checked your profile. Russian, that's pretty cool, I guess I just assumed you were American.

The one with lots of vodka and grizzly bears.

What's vodka? Is it a type of beer? Are grizzly bears a type of koala bear?

Lolno, Koalas aren't even bears! (And beer is barely alcohol...) You Australians have it all wrong.

Yah, I knew. My 2nd grade teacher would get pissed off at us when we called koalas bears. They're actually super-vicious IRL - if you go near a koala, it will maul the fuck out of you. Pics of people holding koalas are ones that have been breed in captivity.

So are grizzly bears.

But do people constantly mistake grizzly bears for being cute and cuddly?

"You know how English speakers something mock the Spanish language by using a lot of A's at the end of words, and the Italian language by using a lot of O's at the end of words." Sorry, swap that around - I guess it works for both, but it's mostly Italian that is associated with ending words with A, and Spanish with ending words with O.

Probably just like we hear it, except they have no idea what any of it means.

Once the words have meaning you stop noticing or being able to notice the sounds of the words

When I was little, I heard someone say "I'm fine, thank you". I thought it sounded like "tyn tyn bene you". Oh, those times when I didn't know English...
