SP and clients not speaking same language

[Upandunder]

What is your go to move if or when you really enjoy the company of your client/sp but not speak the same language?
I really like a sp. She only speak french and i only speak english. Her service is so good that i almost dont mind the language barrier. But without much convo or using google translate i feel like its a turnoff or missing out on quality time.
How you sps or clients handle such situations?

Learn french

or see her in a year when her english gets a lot better from seeing other english speaking clients

You’ll like her even better if you can talk and laugh with her. Learn how to understand French, you don’t have to speak it. You could probably speak to her in English and she does in French

dude, just speak the language of love.
moreover, sex moans in French are hot

I get what your saying as I am English myself. Frenchman I see, are warned when talking with me to keep conversation simple or i won't be able to follow. We manage, either my broken French, their broken English, and words in our own languages when we just don't know how to express what we are trying to say in the other language.

I have stopped accepting visits with people who can't speak English or French, because of the language barrier being difficult, and it takes the fun out of the visit when you need a translator to communicate Between rounds. It doesn't even get past the booking process, as often I can't be sure there is a mutual understanding on limits or expectations for the visit.
Yes there are people who don't know either language aswell.

“Learn french” is just nonsense. No body learns a language for hobby. “Learn conversational basic french” or “learn enough to at least understand it” is much more realistic.

Yessir! Sp im talking does just that!

What you doing totally makes sense. Im also gonna be hobbying in latin america for 1st time soon and got no spanish. Im sure gonna be missing out on some great conversations but im hearing sps down there dont mind there clients not speaking spanish much. If i run into sps with your mindset i wont be disappointed tho cuz i agree with your concerns

Says who? Why not? I cant imagine a better way to learn a new language!

In today’s world, I dont understand people who can speak only 1 language.

Google why learn a new language and let me know if you see anything like “you will have easier time with escort or client”

French is difficult so I think learning how to understand it is good enough. If you have a full time job it does take a lot of time and isn’t always doable

*eye roll*

It can’t hurt to learn a new language, especially if you live or travel to Quebec often. You’ll open your horizons…

Some people don't have second language talents that are as facile as others and nobody seems to understand this. Same thing as IT talent or skills, engineering talent or skills etc.

A few years ago i saw an sp who was completely deaf. I know some of you out there will joke that she would have made the perfect wife. Anyways it initially caught me off guard. I figured that the agency’s booker could have warned me ahead of time however my guess is that she would have lost a lot of bookings had potential clients known this in advance. So i gave them a pass. To make a long story short we figured out ways to communicate & it helped that she was a good lip reader. I had a nice time with her but the whole thing just felt strange.

Speaking French in Quebec is clearly an advantage since it's still the official language of the province

Some basic sign language could have made things less strange. If the agency had sent an interpreter it might have helped.

Years ago I had to defend the deposition of a client who was completely deaf. The client was in a car accident and claimed that another vehicle had caused the accident, and there was some independent evidence of that claim. He communicated with me through emails. His English was quite good, he wrote well and was an intelligent person.

However, defending a deposition was a different story since it's all spoken words being transcribed. The client testified in his sign language. What I did was I hired a sign language interpreter who worked for the State and paid her hourly rate. Although I had given the client an overview of our deposition strategy through emails, I had the sign language interpreter come in an hour before the deposition so I could communicate privately with the client and take him through a dry run of questions and answers. It worked wonderfully. The client executed the strategy, and the interpreter was able to give a voice to his signed responses on the record.

I think if the agency had sent in the same interpreter for the first 10 or so minutes of your SP session, you could have had a good healthy exchange on sexual strategy and so forth with the SP. This would have alleviated any strangeness and increased mutual pleasure.

I know it’s possible to live in Quebec without speaking French but I find it funny to think it’s weird and delusional to be told “to learn French”…

 

[Workingman]

We'll all have neuralink brain implants soon enough. No point in learning french when you can just upload it in a few years.

Yeah I have family members who never learned french and think the island doesn't go further east than Concordia.

 

[MichelleMontreal]

But in all seriousness, learning a language isn't a short financial and time investment, it's something that never ends. I have been learning french since I was a small child and I don't plan to stop learning any time soon.
