English is an international language now, and we can usually communicate with others in English in the world.
There are many people here in Hong Kong who can speak English well. English always helps me to have conversations with them.

I saw a man at a cafe today. He started complaining as soon as he took a seat. He is a native English speaker and didn’t seem to be able to communicate with locals in English smoothly.
He said, “Their English pronunciation is terrible!”
I thought how arrogant he is and felt pity for him at the same time because he doesn’t know that we need to try to understand each other when we communicate with others.
Language is just a tool.
