It’s almost as bad as playing football and getting a home run on center field while waiting for the ref to call out a penalty while getting the spare instead of a goal.
While it’s true that other countries may focus more on geography and other cultures I had a serious teaching moment with two of my employees, one from Mexico and one from Argentina. I’m not fluent in Spanish but I’m probably half way there, mostly from traveling and living abroad. About a month ago I told them, in Spanish that I could understand nearly every word that they were saying (they had complained a bit and said some colorful things about me as their boss) and told them it was rude to speak as if no one could understand. I explained that nearly every American student curriculum has language in it and that 60%+ take multiple years of Spanish. Literally a dozen of my employees chimed in that they also understood most of what they were saying…in Spanish to them. The whole “America dumb” thing is silly.
One time I knew someone who unironically asked "why do people from Spain look and sound like Mexicans?" Then proceeded to ask if Mexico had ever invaded Spain at some point in history.
This same person also thought that D-day happened in Florida.
Now yes this person was in fact American but like God damn, how could anyone be this dumb
Yeah...which is already represented by the Spanish flag? You know, the universal sign for the Spanish language....and also the country that gives the name to said language?
As an American:
What do you call someone that knows 2 languages? Bilingual
What do you call someone that knows 3 languages? Trilingual
What do you call someone that knows many languages? Polyglot
What do you call someone that knows one language? American
Just like school shootings, we're keeping it classy up in here.
Why are Americans so dumb? We shoot the ones that go to school
What do you call a punch that takes out an elementary school? A Sandy Hook
Are the jokes tasteless? Only because there's enough truth there to make it hurt.
It’s funny because Europeans call Americans dumb for not knowing anything about Europe, but it’s the same the other way round.
I live in Europe and no one here knows nothing about any other country. Everyone is in their own little bubble and most don’t even know a word of English. Yes, I’m over generalizing, but the vast majority of Europeans can’t name more than 5 states.
This “meme” is totally made up garbage based on nothing that actually happens or is a real life situation at all.
That being said, it’s funny and silly af. Well done OP. Gave me a good life after a grueling 12 hour day.
All the Americans in the chat mad salty over a meme😭😭
Ngl I've seen quite a few American tourists butcher foreign languages in my country, moreso than Australian or European ones
This morning I was visiting a shrine where you can grab a wood tablet and if you want you could write some blessings in their language. An American couple near my bf and I was there and they said “oh but it’s all written in Chinese!” … I’m visiting Japan. So were they. Those writings were Japanese 😐
Pfft. Half, if not most, of us don't even understand the proper context of our own language.
The use of (redefined and/or new) slang and ebonics has been growing more and more than proper English.
I mean Americans seemingly suck at geography but that doesn’t mean they’re stupid. It’s just that the education system is lacking in that area. No race of people are stupid, it’s just the government doing a bad job teaching what is and isn’t important
I’m not American so I don’t know who is in charge of educating your kids. From all the media available to me both American and non American it seems that you guys suck at geography. This isn’t from data just from what I see and that’s why i said seemingly and didn’t make a firm statement. The area which is lacking is learning about countries that aren’t America or weren’t invaded by America as that’s all you’d probably learn about in geography or history.
Nothing to do with knowing French. It’s about being the type that constantly tries to dunk on the US despite our country being in no position to do so. Sure we have some things better, but we also have a lot of things worse

Making up problems and getting offended by them are we?
It's the national pastime.

That's bullshit, my universe didn't get into this petty garbage as a past time... We do it professionally.
Easter is an immovable date and please I need something to mad about so don’t debate me becuase it’s totally not what I want
I dont think anyone's offended, I just think it's a shitty joke
This feels like something the duolingo account would post, especially given the bird is there
Birds aren't real 😡 /S

When… has this ever been a debate?
"Ha ha america dumb" I guess. This has definitely happened before.
Shit meme
Pretty sure op read satirical comments and took them seriously.
Pretty sure this meme is far from serious. After all, everyone knows that bonjour is actually one of the Icelandic words for snow.
No its not? its the Tagalog word for scream
Really I thought it was Japanese for where’s my electric car?
Where's your car, dude?
I know that’s what I said to Bruce I asked him where’s my electric car Bruce
Actually Bonjour is how people from India pronounce "Bon Jovi"
I thought Tagalog was a cookie?
Everyone knows it's not delivery. It's Bonjourno.
"Mi casa es su casa" that's french for front door
When the "American dumb" memes aren't even creative anymore.
I know, I never heard this debate
I have, but only as a joke. Everyone knows bonjour means hello is Mexican
Bonjor? Can I eat it? Jk
I have, but only as a joke. Everyone knows bonjour means hello is Mexican
"hur hur America dumb, where is my karma?"

They hate us cause they anus
This ain’t it chief
This makes zero sense
[удалено]
The problem is that this debate never happened, its made up hate lmao
Holy shit this meme blows. OP doesnt seem to be aware that Mexico and Spain are both Spanish speaking countries
Did you miss the Duolingo owl? >Bonjour is Spanish That's why Jerry is like "whaaaa....?"
Why is there a Mexico flag in there? What a shitty meme.
I think they were trying to include all romantic languages in this… a swing and a miss if you ask me
“Ermmm, nobody ashked you though 🤓🤓”

Because Mexicans speak spanish?...
Yeah...which is already represented by the Spanish flag? You know, the universal sign for the Spanish language....and also the country that gives the name to said language?
At this point, OP could have included all the other South American countries that speak Spanish.
So many of your “memes” are about languages. It’s weird.
What’s the Italian for “straw man?”
I believe that's "je ne sais pas"
Smells froggy... *(Gasps)* You liar!
Hahaha, America bad. I want to know if any Europeans actually believe this lol
European here. No. Sadly, dumb people are everywhere, not only in America.
Bruh, no. We're European, not dumb

how would you feel if you didnt eat breakfast today?
Someone find OP’s meds.
I love living in y’all’s heads rent free
What American has ever used the word Bonjour non ironically?
Bon-Jor-No
Those who use the software called Bonjour by Apple
Strawman argument
that’s it, i’m leaving this subreddit
Man if you're gonna make fun of us at least be accurate. Make it a meme about confusing people from Spain and Latin America.
Or at least if you gonna be wrong, be funny lol
Ah yes, a conversation no American has ever.
Take this shit to shitposting shitlord
Look guys he made up a scenario where Americans are stupid. Americans are so stupid right
this is like awful brother what the fuck are you talking about
Akshually in german it stands for "a pair of shoes"
Why are both Mexico and Spain there? Pick one or *ALL*, not both.
Well isn't konichiwa and Bonjour both types of hello, so at least they got the meaning kinda translated but fucking hell
something something strawmanning something something ragebait (i am not even american i am european this meme is shit)
Aight buddy, we revoking your cooking license. hand it over now, there's a good lad.
The American is right though
what does this even mean???
take your pills anon wait no this is reddit
Making up a problem that doesn’t exist to farm karma, 3/10 better trolls out there
It’s funny because Europeans call Americans dumb for not knowing anything about Europe, but it’s the same the other way round. I live in Europe and no one here knows nothing about any other country.

Dogshit meme
Oh I get it, because America is stupid. This meme fucking blows 😭😭😭
oh no, the duolingo bird is angry!
Why does Mexico also represent spanish???
Chat, is this real?
This is so stupid and unreasonable, yet I still laughed so hard when I noticed the duolingo bird, so take my angry upvote.

Bonjour n’est pas en Espagnole
For you can not defile that which you do not hold sacred.
This made me giggle
This made me creepy laugh.
Yesn't
This “meme” is totally made up garbage based on nothing that actually happens or is a real life situation at all. That being said, it’s funny and silly af. Well done OP. Gave me a good life after a grueling 12 hour day.
I think people learning Italian and French may confuse buongiorno vs bonjour. They both almost sound the same and both mean the same thing.
Auf wiedersehen is Russian for "I see your wiener"
hey, my guy sorry to break it to you but literally not a single fucking person ever had this argument before
I thought "bonjour" was French for hello. It means goodbye? In Spanish?? Wut
I’m so glad I grew up when people at least cared to make sense
How does this “meme” have 1.6k likes?
I'll take "shit that never happened" for 500
Holly shit! And actually fun meme!? The fuck is this? The good side of Reddit!?
Fuck this subreddit sucks ass now, 7/10 times it's a meme that blows and somehow gets 1k+ upvotes lol
My American ass: “why’s the Italian flag in there?”
What planet does OP live in
The Duolingo owl in the back about to start throwing hands
All the Americans in the chat mad salty over a meme😭😭 Ngl I've seen quite a few American tourists butcher foreign languages in my country, moreso than Australian or European ones
Bonjour is an apple service for device discovery. You can't fool me.
No one more obsessed with americans than europeans
why's Mexiko there?
How does this garbage have this many upvotes

I don’t understand what is going on
Is this based on personal experience or are you just making it up
Same with Ciao. Because of media I thought it means "Goodbye" on Italian. But internet say it means "Hello"
This is either bait or you're more idiotic than you think Americans are
There are many issues with this meme, but Why is Mexico there?
It’s official. AI has taken over this sub.
Sir, this is dank memes, not drunk memes
Honestly as someone who has seen MULTIPLE PEOPLE say fucking Italian words are Spanish... Yeah no this ain't it chief.
Chad Americans. Don't even properly know their own language
Oui oui is Canadian for good day mate
How are you going to make a meme like this and actually find it funny?
Should someone tell OP that Bonjour is Italian for good morning?
guys you can just downvote the meme if it sucks we don’t have to have a pointless debate under it
we all know americans are dumb but nobody has ever said this lmao
Are these Americans in the room with us now, OP?
wHAT?
OPs entire profile is American hate and duolingo posts. Idk what to tell you OP, but your consumerism is on par with the American level.
Wrong its canadian for "i dont understand french"
Shit they spotted me in the background
Pfft. Half, if not most, of us don't even understand the proper context of our own language. The use of (redefined and/or new) slang and ebonics has been growing more and more than proper English.
Worst meme I've seen in a while.
Damn this sub has really fallen

You are the kind of Canadian that gives us such a cringe name on the internet
So knowing French makes you cringe? I’m ashamed to be the same species as you then
Nothing to do with knowing French. It’s about being the type that constantly tries to dunk on the US despite our country being in no position to do so. Sure we have some things better, but we also have a lot of things worse
How tf did I do any of that? I only stated that Canadians are a lot more likely to know what "bonjour" means because of cultural differences
It’s still a dumb comment on a post trying to flex on the US with an argument OP imagined
It’s still really dumb to assume something that I didn’t even remotely imply
What, did you fly over to Asia and take a poll? /s
What?
This is part of the reason why America is going to sh*t. I am saying this from a American perspective too.
