Fake Foreigner

Pejorative name for often monolingual foreign passport holders who despite living their entire lives in the country they are based in, still introduce themselves as foreign citizens of a country from which they don't speak its official language and are unfamiliar with the local culture and customs.
"Coco keeps telling people she is from Argentina, but the other day she couldn't tell us what its capital was."

"Dude, she is a fake foreigner, didn't you know?"

"Fake foreigners can attend any university they want because they are excempt from taking the National College Entrance Examination."

"You can tell Vicky and David are fake foreigners because even-though they both claim to be from New Zealand, they only lived there for 6 months and can barely say a few words in English."

Foreign Pretty

when someone is cute and pretty, but not the standard English way - so 'hot' or 'fit'. But they're cute in a different way. And they do not look like a slut or a slag. Used only when someone is actually foreign, from a different country.
Sarah - "Are you foreign?"
Lilia - "Yes, why?"
Sarah - "You are very foreign pretty!"

Foreign bond payments

A developing country can become destabilized when faced with foreign bond payments. A solution to this is lower interest rates. Or, perhaps investments to help a country develop its local economy in the future to be less reliant on others could make a difference.
Reenvisioning foreign bond payments can lower the risks of war, sex trafficking, corruption regimes, crime, hunger and starvation, drug trafficking and the diaspora that separates families through mass exits.
