又有在外地生活的網友遇到這個問題。

【被寸英文差，該如何應對？】

網友M留學英國，在當地的時裝店兼職幫補學費，卻經常被某英國同事笑她英文差，笑她連自己名字都讀不好，又在眾人面前扮她口音講英文，令她超尷尬難堪。她想要搶白，卻因英文不夠好，撐大口得個窿，不知如何是好，於是M在Facebook向蕭叔叔求救。

蕭叔叔比較幸運，在英文還是超級廢的年代，遇到多數native speakers都很包容，沒有取笑蕭叔叔的英文。可是不能否認，英國當地總有些人欠缺international exposure，笑新移民講英文。遇到此等無品之人，怎樣應對才不失體面？

蕭叔叔告訴網友M：下次他再笑你，你要教訓他，要他知道自己行為無聊、無品、無class。可是不必直接說：You are very rude.

因為咁樣唔夠寸。

你可冷靜當眾對他說：

Just a word of advice. Go and travel a bit more. Gain some international exposure, hopefully you'll learn that English is not the only language spoken in the world, and that many people speak it only as their second or third language. And when you do, you might come off as a little bit less uncultured and undereducated.

點解要用英文？用廣東話罵不好嗎？何必講英文遷就對方？

蕭叔叔認為，罵人一定要對方聽得懂，尤其是當眾斥責，別人聽不明就沒有意思。在英國工作，當然說英文。也不必怕發音咬字語調節奏不夠好，即管用你的港式英文。

有啲人唔教訓下唔得。

Rude歌詞: https://goo.gl/V8NGf1

----------歌詞對照----------
Saturday morning jumped out of bed
And put on my best suit
Got in my car and raced like a jet
All the way to you
Knocked on your door with heart in my hand
To ask you a question
'Cause I know that you're an old-fashioned man, yeah

Can I have your daughter for the rest of my life?
Say yes, say yes 'cause I need to know
You say I'll never get your blessing 'til the day I die
Tough luck, my friend, but the answer is 'No'

Why you gotta be so rude?
Don't you know I'm human too?
Why you gotta be so rude?
I'm gonna marry her anyway

Marry that girl
Marry her anyway
Marry that girl
Yeah, no matter what you say
Marry that girl
And we'll be a family
Why you gotta be so
Rude

I hate to do this, you leave no choice
Can't live without her
Love me or hate me we will be boys
Standing at that altar
Or we will run away
To another galaxy, you know
You know she's in love with me
She will go anywhere I go

Can I have your daughter for the rest of my life?
Say yes, say yes 'cause I need to know
You say I'll never get your blessing 'til the day I die
Tough luck, my friend, 'cause the answer's still 'No"

Why you gotta be so rude?
Don't you know I'm human too?
Why you gotta be so rude?
I'm gonna marry her anyway

Marry that girl
Marry her anyway
Marry that girl
No matter what you say
Marry that girl
And we'll be a family
Why you gotta be so
Rude
Rude

Can I have your daughter for the rest of my life?
Say yes, say yes 'cause I need to know
You say, I'll never get your blessing 'til the day I die
Tough luck, my friend, but 'No' still means 'No'!

Why you gotta be so rude?
Don't you know I'm human too?
Why you gotta be so rude?
I'm gonna marry her anyway

Marry that girl
Marry her anyway
Marry that girl
No matter what you say
Marry that girl
And we'll be a family
Why you gotta be so
Rude
Why you gotta be so
Rude
Why you gotta be so rude?

哈囉！大家好，我是哥倫布。我本身是一名詞曲創作人，目前住在台灣台北。非常謝謝你們願意聆聽我的原創歌曲，也謝謝你們訂閱我的音樂頻道喔！

我很喜歡寫歌，每當我聽見別人在哼我寫的旋律時，我就會有非常大的滿足感。除了寫歌之外，我也喜歡拍一些有趣的音樂相關影片在 Youtube 和 Facebook 上面喔！

我的夢想是有一天能把寫歌當作事業。當我達成我的目標後，我會用盡全力幫助其他的獨立創作人，這樣他們也能夠靠從事藝術來生活。

我會彈鋼琴、吉他、小提琴、貝斯，目前也有在學習其他的樂器，如果你們想要支持我的話，可以訂閱我的頻道及追蹤我的臉書給我最大、最實質的支持。

Hi! I am Columbus. I am songwriter in Taipei, Taiwan. My dream is to someday be able to do songwriting as a career. Thank you for listening and subscribing and listening to my music!
