Americans in Paris

Megnut's had a lot of visitors drop by her Paris flat this month. She writes a witty description on Americans In Paris and the impact of their varying language skills.

Some who speak no French at all: They do things like: drink from the wine carafe rather than their glass; they walk up to the window of an ice cream shop and say, Au Revior!; or they bump against a woman's breast on the dance floor and when she slaps them, they respond with Merci!
