Border control "officer" doesn't know that Portugal is a country !?? Education in the USA is kind of mind blowing

[@tkps]

It gets to the point where I wonder what they do teach them rather than what they don't. Because there's so much about so many thing they don't know the rest of us do because we're taught. Bit sad really. People like Charlie at least want to know and are willing to learn but so many are confidentally ignorant to the point of arguing with you even about your own country (like chinchilla lady). That I don't get.

How can be that person the one managin the USA borders. I would (not) understand if the country is a small one (like Andorra) and the border police has to check a passport guide, but Portugal!! It's their job and they have to known the rest of the world countries.

[@gijsvanlieshout]

Don't beat yourself up too much. You aren't dumb. You may be not as educated when it comes to stuff in the rest of the world(as some other Americans appear to be - blame it on your educational system). But at least you are interested in those topics and places. You are willing to learn and educate yourself. That's how it's done. So no, you are not dumb. You're an intelligent guy who's held back by a US system that is very self-centered.

A couple of points: 1- Even if Americans say they're Canadian, their Americanism will still give them away 2- Canadians are not at all impressed when Americans do this

[@tkps]

I went back to England for a holiday when I was 19 and my young Uncle met me in London. He'd been staying at a backpacker place before I got there so palled up with a Canadian guy. He'd razz him up about being American knowing he wasn't and the bloke rose to the bait each time. As you say, not impressed and that was in the 80's. Even then Canadians didn't want to be seen as Americans abroad. Can't say I blame them.

It goes away back. I am Canadian and my dad was a WWII veteran. When I visited Paris France in 1980, he told me to wear a Canadian flag lapel pin. He said that I would be treated better in Europe if people knew that I am Canadian. It turns out that he was absolutely right. My friends and I stopped in a café and started speaking to each other in English and some French teenagers started staring at us. As we left the café, they followed us out and then started chasing us and throwing stones! They were yelling at us, "Stupid Americans!" We yelled back to them in French, "We're not American! We're Canadian!" They immediately started to apologize and after a bit one of my friends exchanged addresses with one of them and they became "pen pals" (which is what people did before social media). ​@@margplsr3120

[@winterlinde5395]

But would it be right to say that there are British „versions“ of English?

[@BP-kx2ig]

@@winterlinde5395 No, there are British variations of English.

[@nedludd7622]

After the American colonies became free from England, the language and pronunciation changed over time in England. Americans spoke more the English of that earlier time than the English did. British English now is thus a version of English.

[@FloofersFX]

Ehhh, language evolves overtime all over the place, it's a bit silly. If anything a lot of American English also used the older British words, like Aluminum. Before the Brits wanted to sound more posh(like the French) they used that one, then changed it to Aluminium. I think it's fair to say there's different varieties of English. Just like there's different varieties of say, Slavic languages.

[@gerardflynn7382]

English comes from Scandinavia the language is called Germanic. For the benefit of Americans Germanic is a language that is a couple of thousand years old. It is separate from the country called Germany a country from the late 19th century.

[@HalfPastSleep]

The thing about saying you're Canadian is that you would be found out pretty quickly because Canadians know that the rest of the world exists!!!

[@tkps]

Yeah. I wanna say Charlie means well but Canada strikes me as more like Australia or the UK than the US so the difference would be easy to recognise by non Americans.

[@aurayadewitt5301]

I think that most Americans that use this tactic are somewhat more aware of the world than their regular counterparts, as they experience what is called "fremdschämen" in German, or "being ashamed for being associated with someone who unashamedly does incredibly stupid things". I don't think an American who is unaware of how stay-at-home Americans and American tourists are perceived abroad would think of using this tactic. In that regard, I think this has a good chance of succeeding at first glance and blunting the initial, stereotypical expectations of stupidity you would otherwise experience when "outing" yourself as American.

I lived with an American in my student years, I remember asking him once; “Bill, Americans don’t really understand irony, do they?” Bill: “What’s irony?” It was either quick witted genius or incredibly dumb and because he said it so deadpan, to this day, I’m really not sure which.

3:30 And 99% of the americans seem to think Germany is all like Bavaria and people wear actually Dirndls and Lederhosen. As somebody from northern Germany, where we think Bavaria isn't even really germany, thats just so damned annoying. I always say : its like we would think every american would wear a stetson, a holster with 2 colts and rides to work on his horse.

[@meljayization]

I'm from Nürnberg/ Franken, the north of Bavaria isn't even Bavaria. When I meet American tourists and say I'm german, first reaction in 90% is: I know wiener schnitzel. They say with a big smile. Wien= Vienna/ Austria. Same: Donald Trump visit Brussels and say after: belgium is a nice city. That dude was at a expensive elite school...... Before you visit a country, you google it at least? Enough American soldiers stayed in Bavaria after they retreated 1995 from there. I know alot, but Bob is always the best/ funniest, you only say USA= oh these idiots. Tell him: I meet an American tourist = what these stupid idiots done again. Most other American who live here don't say it so blunt, but the most say the same/ sorry. And southern Bavaria? Lived there 12 years, alot there are like Americans, ignorant / we are the best. Sorry but: I'm 1 human = I'm not better or less then you. And I count the same for other humans. (When Americans shouting: we are the best/ NR 1 in the world) When a lightning hit you= 1 human. Result want be: American and South Bavarian survive, and a normal german/ not from these both= death

[@nedludd7622]

Two things I am reminded of which didn't directly involve me. A French friend told me that he had been sent to Texas for his job. They found a house in a neighborhood not too far from his job. When they moved in, neighbors came by to welcome them. One of the first questions they asked was "What church do you go to?" Needless to say, he had been puzzled. In 1996, a journalist wrote about his call to the US Olympic Committee's sales department to buy tickets to some events. The person on the other end asked him where he lived. He said New Mexico. She responded, oh you will have to get the tickets from your country.

[@Phiyedough]

Yes, it seemed odd to include that one. I think people in the rest of the world get bombarded with so much US culture that a bit of it is bound to rub off and the average person could name quite a few US states, even if they are unable to point to them out on a map outline.

It took her half a day a day to google it, and think about it, and ask someone else, who just blinked at her. She got it in the end. At least she learnt something. Also she is one of the few Americans who travel, and know where New Zealand is. SO she is ahead there.

I was thinking about this and I'm not even joking. If I were supposed to made a list of worst to best places to live on this planet it would look like this: (Worst to best with examples) 1. Active war countries (Ukraine, Israel) 2. Regime countries (North Korea) - but this is speculative - Kazahstan regime is nothing compared to North Korea for example. 3. 3rd world countries (Afghanistan) 4. USA (exceptionally) 5. 2nd world countries (Brazil, other South American Countries, some African ones) 6. 1st world countries (Europe, Australia, Canada, some countries in Africa like SA) I'm not 100% sure about correct order between 4 & 5 but at this moment I will leave that list as it is. The reason I will leave it at this order is because even though in 2nd world countries people (so called middle-class) might have less than in USA then in those countries they are not suddenly left with nothing because of life-killing medical debts or sudden job loss. So it's more like having less - but stable. That's also the reason why USA has it's exceptional place on that list - because USA is truly exceptional. Just not in the way Americans tend to belive it is. And yes - we want to see more of them (videos) 🙂

Even if Canadians sounds different than USlanders (intentional joke) then most of people in Europe won't hear the difference because most of us are not so well familiar with different accents of USA.

And of course there are many accents all over USA but we can't differentiate all of them. We know southern (TX, AL) and non-southern to be honest. It's like asking American... or hell no - even German to differentiate Silesian and Warsaw accent in Poland. I mean... c'mon. Only we know that.

These four states combined are home to about 36 % of the total US population which means chances that you're correct in your assumption are not that bad. 5:05 Yes the Philippines are in South East Asia. 8:00 You mean "less shamefull than being from the USA". Canadians are from America. America is not a country, it is a continent (or a twin continent). Even US americans themselves where aware of this once: When President Monroe presented his Monroe doctrine in 1823 (which states "America for Americans") he was specifically referring to the colonial empires and the colonies in South and Central America, and was specifically excluding the USA because they already where independent. This means that he - and probably most other US americans as well - understood during those times that the USA are just a country and that everyone born anywhere in North or South America is in fact an American.

NORTH America is a Continent. SOUTH America is ANOTHER Continent. The COUNTRY of America (USA) is NOT a Continent. People from other Countries within those two Continents would NOT thank you for calling them 'American.' They have their OWN Countries.

[@HH-hd7nd]

@@lexiburrows8127 Doesn't change anything - and what you said about the continents depends on the definition of continent which is not universal worldwide. In many countries North and South America count as one continent, same with Europe and Asia - sometimes even Europe, Asia and Africa. That in modern colloquial language the USA and the term America are used interchangeably doesn't changy anything about the fact that it is incorrect. That's the same as using the terms Germany and Europe interchangeably or Saudi Arabia and Asia.

Never get tired of these. I was triggered mildly by the reference to one Australian who doesn't know the history of Bob Dylan, she was probably 14 yoa.

Ditto. I knew they'd been around at the same time so suspected it'd be someone younger. Thing is with Aussies you can usually tell them they got it wrong and other than maybe a few Gen Zers they'd say 'fair enough'.

Smart American ! Like you !!!

I live in Berlin, Germany so lots of American tourists. I can post all day about stupid things Americans have said to me over the years. One guy told me America built the Brandenburg Gate to keep out the Russians. He got really aggressive when I told him that the Brandenburg Gate was built before the USA existed.

Thank you 💖🇫🇮

[@nikomangelmann6054]

to make this more confusing for ppl who dont know that romania has a president, the romanian president is "german". he is from the german minority (transylvanian saxons) in romania

[@LeSarthois]

Reminds me how Americans were confused when they heard that former French Prime Minister Manuel Valls was trying to get into Spanish politics : it's because he has dual nationality.

[@jfw413]

So he is a vampire also? 😇

[@jfw413]

@LeSarthois So, let's not get them confused about the Head of state of Andorra 😜; that would really mess them up 😄

[@nikomangelmann6054]

@@jfw413 transylvania is just a area in romania. the german name is siebenbürgen and sounds not very vampire like. its just a coincidence that vlad the impaler and german settlers being in the same area

[@jfw413]

@nikomangelmann6054 I wast just trying to poke fun at the way stereotypical USA-ians short circuit to conclusions; not being serious at all.

Most recently "America made F1 cool".

[@ThirdEye...]

Again, ok you call yourself “America”, but you are the Unites States of America… America it’s your continent, there is not even a North or South America , just whole America! There is no North or South Europe,Africa.Asia…there is just a Europe,Africa, Asia…
