Many indians speak 4+ languages easily , and we dont even notice that 😅

How well do you speak those languages? For example, can you order pizza with pineapple and olives in any of those languages? What if the pizza you get is cold, there’s only one olive on it and the crust is soggy, could you get your complaints through in any language?

Or perhaps will the explanation be more like: “Pizza bad, no good. Want money back.”

I’m not from India but as another Asian, yes, we can have fluent conversations in several languages. (I grew up speaking English, Mandarin, Malay, Cantonese and a bit of Hakka)
