Baldo by Hector D. Cantú and Carlos Castellanos for March 31, 2018

Personally, I would’ve gone with Portuguese (não falo inglês).

Oui! Je comprend!

I’ve always wished we were a bilingual country….and no, I’m not Spanish.

Or he could just be friendly and help …

There are always needy people, and Sergio has a limited income. He has to choose carefully which he will help.

When we had a home phone & got calls from telemarketers, I’d answer using the few words of Irish I know.

Wasn’t last week all about the importance of honesty?!!

Or tell him to get a job.

That’s the trouble with my barrio – too many people speak Spanish. lol

Frankly, in the 5 years I’ve lived here, I’ve never heard anyone speak anything else ! ( Of course, I live in Machala, Ecuador, so…)

I pulled the same stunt in Denver a few years back — and the guy replied in perfect French! Busted! I gave him a ten.

I subscribe to Baldo in both languages. It can get interesting to compare what they say, in both languages. Both languages express the day’s subject, differently.

Sergio wonders why Baldo tells so many little white lies.
