<Quatre vingt dix sept>

In swiss-french it's more logical. Instead of "quatre vingt" (eighty) they say "huitante," and "quatre vingt dix" (ninety) is "nonante." It still throws me when talking to people in France, I have to stop them for a moment to be sure I'm writing the right number down. :laugh:

Just English and French. I can get around in Spanish, and apparently I can point at things and make a poor effort to buy a charger in Portugese. :laugh:

I saw a video of some parents trying to get their children to phone a number. It was painful to watch. Equally painful was a kid with a Gameboy. They weren't pushing the buttons and they didn't understand why it wasn't reacting when they touched the screen. :no:

 

New Girl wasn't an amazing show, but Nick Miller/Jake Johnson was very relateable:

Mhm, I've seen those reactions of young kids trying to understand what is and how to use it. I only barely ever used it, but I do get how it works..
