Fun Times!

Hola mes amigos! I was bored today, so i decided to have a little fun! So i went to Jamaa Township and started talking to people in Spanish! I only knew a few phrases, "Me gusta pollo" (I like chicken), "me gusta el sacapuntas" (i like the pencil sharpener), and "me hablo slovakian" (i speak Slovakian). But it was still fun to see people's reactions! After a while, someone came to Jamaa Township who actually spoke Spanish, and they started talking to me. I couldn't understand them, so eventually i just shouted "Inodoro limpio" (toilet cleaner) and left. I came back a little while later and spoke in French, which i'm actually sort of fluent in. But i had a pretty fun time!
Want to make people think you speak a different language?
Here are a few simple steps to follow!
1. Find a place where there are lots of people! (Ex. parties, Jamaa Township, and Epic Den...)
2. Open another window and set up Google Translate*, so you can quickly translate things in and out of the language you are "speaking"!
3. In your Google Translate* window, type in funny phrases, like "shoe laces", "potato salad", "pretty ponies", or maybe even "rainbow yummy gummy bears"!
4. In your Animal Jam window, shout out these phrases (translated into your language of choice) to people!
5. Observe their reactions! Make funny faces! Hop around in a circle! The choices are endless!

Experiencing problems with this joke?
Here are common problems!
1. Someone thinks i have insulted them! What do i do?
    -Calmly tell them what you really said. This can kind of ruin the joke, but you can always go somewhere else and start over again.
2. People are accusing me of lying! They think i am not really speaking the language! What do i do?
    -This one is a little tricky. There really isn't a way to prove that you are actually speaking the language, unless you translate it word for word for the person. But don't worry, you are NOT lying! You are actually speaking the language!
3. I can't translate what someone said to me! Help!
    -Sometimes people say things to you back. They might actually know the language and might expect you to converse with them. But don't worry. If Google Translate* can't translate it (this happens sometimes), then just shout something random and leave. Works every time!

* Google Translate is a program that lets you type in a word or phrase and it will translate it to the language you chose. This is a really nifty tool, and it comes with many different language options. You can get to it by typing "translate" into google and clicking the first thing that pops up.


Note: AMY'S ANIMAL JAM NEWS IS NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR YOUR ACTIONS. IF YOU CHOOSE TO INSULT PEOPLE, THAT'S NOT MY PROBLEM!
Thanks:)
