The trick isn't learning the language, it's learning how to respond to the language;

"No you're not fat"
"You look great!" (don't say "fine" here, sometimes "Fine" is worse than "ugly" ).
"Of course you're right"
"I'm sorry" (make sure you know what you're sorry for, if you don't a best guess is alright if you guess right but worse than not knowing if you guess wrong. ).
"I like burned x" (x = whatever she cooked).

Used the last (last 2 actually) frequently, but it didn't help much.

Or (for the male suicidals) you can say...

"Well, you married me so it's clear that you're incapable of making rash decisions."
"Remember? I'm from Mars?"
"It's ok dear, I still love the rest of you."
"Nah, I've seen bigger."

why ignorant ?

i speak english so i have no need to speak a foreign lanuage or have any desire to.
When i go abroad on holiday i dont really care if they understand me or if i understand them.So long as im the one waving the euro`s then i usually get what i want.

Has speaking another lanuage got u anywhere in life ? - has it made your life more fullfilled..........

Lasto, this is one of the most ignorant post i have read in a long time. Being bilingual can make you a ton more money. Careers today are looking for people that know more then one language. The world needs less people with attitudes like you.
