My french class

I think being anxious worsens my ability to recall french and use it.. Like I was in such a bad mood in the previous two days and felt that I was very bad at french.. Today though, I am in a better mood, not excellent but better, and the teacher was so friendly and encouraging, so I felt my level was not as bad..

Funny, the teacher turned out to be living where I live! I introduced myself and everything, so he knew where I come from and where I live.. Then during class, there was a question as to what you would do in France.. So I answered that I'd taste french cheese and wine.. The teacher followed up with are you Muslim? he caught me off guards, I was like; ummm..... long pause, then : no? As in I am asking him, is this the right answer? 🥔😂 and I always have this tone when I say something in french that I am not sure about, so I had the same tone and was waiting for him to correct me 🥔🤣


He caught me off guards because normally this is not a question that would be asked, but I guess because he lives here and knows the culture and assumed that I'd be one knowing my background, he asked ... and he was friendly and spontaneous throughout the lesson, so I guess it is probably just his personality. I didn't feel offended and felt that he was just making conversations, like many teachers would ask follow up questions to get you to talk...

But that was funny. It was probably clear from my answer that I was/am one.

why would your religion be an issue though? I can understand having a conversation in the language, but ...

@goliathtree ibget what you are saying.. but since he lives here i know that he knows that religion is often disused.. it is not like in the west where the subject of religion is not brought up and it is inappropriate to ask people

@BittersweetPotato ah....but do you think it was in any way related to your answer? It just seems odd to me regardless of the norm.

@goliathtree yes of course it was related to my answer. I siad I'd drink wine... Most Muslims dont drink and it is the culture here, no muslim would proudly say that they drink even if they do.
I get why it is weird or inappropriate to you becauae i know this is not appropriate in the western culture to ask these questions which is why i clarified in the story that it is very common in my culture where we both live
