Your majesty, I beg your pardon.
No I mean I’m begging for a pardon, I don’t wanna go to jail.
I use the word pardon because there are lots of local Spanish speakers, tourist/seasonal French Canadian speakers, and occasionally tourists from farther abroad around and I’d rather be understood than pretend everyone speaks English. When speaking to strangers, like when I’m asking forgiveness for being an inconvience to them or trying to politely get someone’s attention, preferring loan words that really don’t need translation in order to be understood just seems like good citizenship and also more kind.
When you use “sorry”
Why do I squeak and stamp my feet when I see dogs? What the fuck is wrong with me?
When you use the word pardon instead of what
I use perdon, with the accent
Wut?
I was about to explain it was Spanish until I realised I was being an idiot lol.
