| Clarissa February 2 | My nephew is 8, and he's growing up to be such a typical North American guy, it's funny. He told his mother that there's a girl he likes. "What is it about her that you like?" she asked. And he gave this very American reply that sounds deeply strange to those of us who are not from here: "She laughs at my jokes." The typical American girl reply of "I like him because he makes me laugh" is just as weird to us. There's absolutely nothing wrong with any of this, of course. It's just such a cultural difference because we'd never say something like this. | | | | | You can also reply to this email to leave a comment. | | | | |
