DEAR ABBY: I read your column in which you advised people to be careful who they speak Spanish in front of because you never know who can understand you.
I would like to add, "Be careful speaking any foreign language because you never know who can understand it."
I have a granddaughter who was raised in Saudi Arabia. She now goes to college in South Carolina and is a food server part-time.
She was serving some people who were speaking Arabic among themselves. One person said, "The vegetables don't look fresh to me." My granddaughter said, "Oh, yes, the vegetables are fresh; I just cut them up this morning!"
Were those people ever surprised! -- IMPRESSED GRANDMA
