Do the English Speak English
I arrived in London at last. The railway station was big, black, and dark. I did not know the way to[^3] my hotel, so I asked a porter[^1]. I not only[^4] spoke English very carefully, but very clearly as well. The porter, however, could not understand me. I repeated several[^2] times and at last, he understood. He answered me, but he spoke neither[^5] slowly nor clearly. "I am a foreigner," I said. Then he spoke slowly, but I could not understand him. My teacher never spoke English like that[^6]! The porter and I looked at each other and smiled. Then he said something and I understood it. "You will soon learn English!" he said. I wonder. In England, each person speaks a different language. The English understand each other, but I don't understand them! Do they speak English?
