Forgotten Quirks- Compassion on Language Learners

As I listen to how we(the foreigners) all speak the local language differently here to the locals(of course)...

the goofs, the accents, the terrible pronunciations, the extra syllables added in(or left out)...

I have decided by far, the locals here have much more grace in how we butcher their language than Americans(sorry the foreigners) have when we hear them butchering ours...

at least within our office...
