I heard a comedian on the radio completely rip off this premise and joke how he told someone he didn't speak English and he was explaining to them he memorized the words he's saying but he doesn't understand them. It was the exact same thing. What a thief.
It's actually a philosophical argument too. Given the limitations of language and human cognition we are all recycling a lot mostly so we can get shoes eh
Lol he is speaking German while thinking in English 😁😁 I had a friend from Germany that somehow started to think in English. When she went home to visit, her family told her she sounded like a tourist 😁😁😁
He would shut up (quit saying what he is currently saying) and then give the directions (resume speaking). That is feasible. When you tell something to shut up, it's not necessarily for eternity.
I'm not an expert in either Spanish nor German, but at the very least I'm sure that... "No habla español" and "Nein sprechen sie Deutsch" should be "No hablo español"and "Ich spreche kein Deutsch". Or I could be missing something
@Nick R I don't watch the show, this clip was simply presented to me. I just assume that if his ruse is pretending not to speak any English, other than those very eloquently chosen words, than that he would learn the correct speech patterns in the other languages to continue the appearance of flawlessly learning only specific bits of each.
@Nick R Yes... except no. I have no issue with the main joke, as my attention is to the other two languages being botched. If THAT was intentional, THAT is to say for the German and Spanish to be botched, then I don't get why THAT is. So my question is, does he so eloquently learn the specific bits he needs in every language or not? Or is part of the joke that he memorized what he needed perfectly in English, but then somehow taught himself botched versions of German and Spanish phrases? If he only learns the sounds needed to convey a perfect message in every language that he does so, then how is he making grammatical errors in the other two languages?
@Nick R I GET the joke that is being put forward. I just think they made an error by having him, someone who learns the precise sounds needed to convey a message in whatever languages he chooses, say things that are not the precise sounds needed in all other language but English. It would make more sense if the writers simply made a mistake in translation.
Why Dave Foley pretend not to understand English, after the number of times Scott asked where the shoe store's located, is beyond me? (Yes, I am aware it is a skit.)

Came here to make this same comment.
The are a variety of ways you could phrase it, but "nein" is definitely not the right word.
Same with spanish "no habla español" means "they dont speak spanish", the correct form is "no hablo español"
English is my first language, but I started learning English on Pimsleur. I figure that'll help me learn French by association.
Hi (sorry for bad English)
Someone from Big Train must've seen this.
How can one both shut up and give someone directions?
