English Speaker Mentality

A kind mentality that monolingual English speaker has when learning a new language.
For example:
mispronouncing the vowels.
apply the nonsensical spell of English to a language with logical spelling and trying to read it.

never prounce the R in other language properly.
thinking that all the people in the world know English so learn the minimum of the set language.

I can't belive he just pronounce "karaoke" like "keriyoki", I bet he have an English Speaker Mentality.

the english goodbye

Used by Europeans, especially from central & eastern Europe, to describe a passive aggressive person who wants to say "no" to a proposition but is either too embarrassed or feeble to come right out with it, so drags things out until you get bored and/or get the message. Based on the alleged characteristic of the English who drift away from parties without really saying "goodbye"

Vlad: these guys have been negotiating for weeks but they never get to a decision
Boris: give up - their giving you the english goodbye, mate

English Class

The teacher (usually female, 40-50 years old, divorced) loves to over analyse everything in a text/movie
They stop after every sentence to analyze the words said in whatever piece of media you are studying
"The shirt was dark blue" does not represent the melancholic solitude that the character portrays, maybe the shirt was just fucking dark blue

Guy1 : English Class sucks!
Guy2: i know, the teacher makes us write an essay on 1 line of a poem

English Gun salute

A English 21 salute is when 42 males line up (21 each side,) and proceed to jerk each other off whilst veterans slice down a slip n slide naked, with fireworks placed in their arse. The act of the veterans sliding down the slip n slide with fireworks and the shooting spunk resemble the 21 gun salute for the armed forces 🫡 🇬🇧

Well, me and George went to our annual army reunion and had the best English gun salute……. My balls are purple and bruised I beat them that hard

Singular is "Crypto-Englishman", plural is "Crypto-English", also "Crypto-Englishmen". "Crypto-Angloid" can also be used if you're feeling a tad bit ruder than usual.
