Ahhhhh.. Sieger...

I think that I may have stumbled upon the solution for France.

I studied French in school for a few years from someone that has a regional Parisian accent. As a result, I'm told my limited French has that posh accent. But.... I didn't study long enough, or use the language to the extent where my vocabulary exceeded that of a 5 year old.

So, when I attempt to converse in French in France, it's so offensive that the conversant mercifully switches to English. Vive la France!
