I can actually speak french, but he's from france and they speak a whole different french than we speak here in boondocks
Our french is very slang and that's what I grew up with and all I know.
He has a hard time communicating with people who have lived here all their lives because they have a very hard time understanding him.
The french here and the french from France are two different things
I know I could talk to him and he would understand me, but I just wouldn't have a clue as to what he's saying.
