Language barrier Communication stalemate

September 30 2017

Hi 😘 If you're new to Australia or still learning our language and slang lol, do you find communicating on here (the site in general) difficult? Also welcome comments from those communicating with people where English isn't their first language. So just briefly, I have become accustomed to language issues, I actually seek out other race/nationality, so have some experience now. I've found myself attracted to various accents and different cultures. Not all I have to point out, we all still have our particular likes and dislikes, but the language barrier is not usually a hurdle as far as my attraction and meeting them. However, what if you can't kick off/start communication with them because they are only very new to our language/country/this site, so perhaps combined with struggling to figure out the site and how it works. Specifically online I guess I mean. In RL, you can still engage with a person through body language 😜 but texting is different. So I had a guy flirt with me, the flirt exchange went like this (premium plus member apparently new to Australia according to his profile, and I'm a guest) Received - You're exactly what I'm looking for, please message me I'm keen Sent - I'm a guest and can't contact you. Please message me Received - If you're serious, message me, I'm keen 🐒 So what do I do now, aside from become a paid member lol but this could go on forever 😎

I'm Italian/French, so my accent is a sort of mix (maybe more French... I don't know why. It was so funny learning Aussie slang when I came to Australia 🇦🇺. I had sometimes issue while texting, when someone use abbreviations (well. Something more tha 4u). I reckon is better ask before make a big mistake. PS why didn't send him a message????

🤣🤣🤣🤣 I guess if he was serious, he would of messaged you. In answer to your conundrum about language barriers. Google translate is great. If I was keen on some one who could not speaka da much Engrish, I would learn some of their native tongue. Good luck 😁😁 - Posted from rhpmobile
