Re: Weird little things that characters do that bug you....

[(Anonymous)]

ayrt

THIS sfm. I even mix some English in my Spanish because the expression IS originally in English and makes no sense/wouldn't be recognizable if translated! (aka whenever a meme's being quoted). There's a more natural way to mix languages other than inserting random foreign words for no purpose, but writers don't seem to be aware of this.

The Auf Wiedesehen bit is too blatant to show up in too many movies (there was a Bond one though in which the Swiss character who could speak flawless English says it instead of goodbye), but the hallo/ja/nein trio is ALWAYS there somewhere. And/or the stupid steretypical accent *seethes*

Of course I'm talking about fiction only. Hello/goodbye/yes/no are the first things you learn to say in any language. Slips of the tongue are a real thing but nowhere as common as fiction would have us believe.

Yes to all three paragraphs! Also, slip ups in grammar happen more often than saying the first words you learn in English in foreign language accidentally. Grammar is a lot more subtle though and is probably harder to write and the audience probably won't recognize it even though it is damn more believable.

This is like, one of the many instances where fiction is the opposite of real life or something. (throws hands up in air)
