Episode description

I once saw a British tourist in Germany order food without even trying to speak German. No “please,” no “thank you,” just: “Can I get one of them sausages with the powder on it?” 🤦‍♂️


This got me thinking—why do some people make zero effort abroad? And more importantly, why don’t we all at least learn please and thank you in different languages?


So today, we're diving into the fascinating origins of these words across French, Spanish, Italian, Russian, Arabic, and Chinese, plus a few surprises! 🧐
