Ok, Lemmy, let’s another play a game!

And I honestly think this one’s more important.

Post how many languages in which you can say Please and Thank You, including your native language. If you can, please provide which languages and how to phonetically say them so the rest of us can learn!

I spent a fair amount of bopping around Europe in the early Aughts and as a native English speaker, I found everyone appreciating my bad mangled attempts at politeness.

    Here’s a horrific example of bash and JS mashed together

    echo "console.log(process.argv[2])" | node - "Please and thank you"
    

    or bash and python if that’s your thing?

    echo "import sys; print(sys.argv[1])" | python - "Please and thank you"
    

    Or Bash, JS AND Python if you’re feeling extra masochistic

    echo "console.log(\"import sys; print(sys.argv[1])\")" | node | python - "Please and thank you"
