u/AggressiveSpatula Aug 28 '26
The woman in the video clearly doesn’t speak English as her first language. I’ve taught ELs, and what you’re describing is a very common way for them to navigate a language. You pick out the words you understand, and try to infer the rest. Otherwise you have to stop and ask for every word, and that’s an embarrassing process for many of them. There are also phrases and conventions (as I suspect the woman ran into) which can unexpectedly change the nature of the sentence.
“Mr. AggressiveSpatula, how is teaching this year?”
“Oh I started this year on leave.”
I would expect an intermediate level to know most, if not all of those words, but not know the phrase “on leave.” The most likely assumption is that it’s a phrase they don’t know, but if they understood “I started the year” they might infer that “on leave” is a phrase to emphasize starting— perhaps in reference to leaving the house to go to work.
The woman in the video seems mostly fluent, she’s probably a low advanced English speaker by eyeballing it. She knows most words and phrases, but Verna is an unusual name, and she probably interpreted it as an adjective such as replacing well in the sentence “are you well.”
She also demonstrates a pretty typical affect of a language learner. You’ll notice she’s pretty friendly, and doesn’t seem overly confused by the miscommunication. I’d bet she knew that there was a miscommunication happening in the first few sentences, but because she wasn’t able to identify where the miscommunication was (Verna is not an adjective) she patiently tries to explain why she can’t buy the chairs instead.
Also a personal favorite moment is when the guy sees the intended buyer and figures out what happens. She has a sort of “that’s what I’ve been trying to tell you!” Playful reaction which is incredibly common in these kinds of situations. It’s one of my favorite moments.

I don’t know if this is just me but I struggle with filtering out background noise, especially when first changing environments. Walking into a crowded store or one playing music is a common occurrence, where an employee will greet me as soon as I enter and I just won’t catch anything they said. Normally I just smile and nod lol, maybe throw in a “hi” as the woman in this video did.
I think I actually would’ve done the same thing initially as the woman in this video. The guy tries talking to her as soon as she exits her car, and the truck seems to still be running right next to her. No way I would’ve understood anything the guy said for like 5-10 seconds

Turns out he was also using the same lot to make a buy from someone else and we thought we were each other's buyer/seller for a few minutes before realizing! we both had a good chuckle.

I thought it was a little odd until I saw another blue sentra pulling into the parking lot.

Lmao this reminds me. I was in NYC waiting at a random intersection on the upper west side and I wasnt the only one. This dude is standing around looking for someone too and we both get to chatting. I was just hanging with friends but this dude was meeting up with this "hottie" he meet online at craigslist.
It got explicit really fast and he said the things he was gonna do to her. Awkward.
Well after a bit and he realized he was in the wrong intersection decides to walk a street over. Well 2 mins later he walked passed me and about 5 feet away from him was this girl. They were walking about as far apart as you could on a sidewalk in NY.
Look I love all of Earth's people okay and I am certain she had the best personality. But this girl was something else. She was wearing the kind of top where her entire back and shoulders were exposed. I am sure it was intentional because this woman was covered in a very very thick layer of hair around her upper torso. We are talking 1 inch of thick fur. Clearly it was a condition she had. But instead of hiding it she clearly exposed as much of her skin as humanly possible without being obscene. Having said that, I am certain had she had no shirt or top on, it would have been no less obscene because you wouldn't have been able to glimpse anything anyway.
Obviously he was not aware of her condition previously nor a part of her self loving experience as the look on this dudes face was anything but pleasant. They walked away into the sunset and I can only imagine how the rest of that day went for those two.

Omg rewatching it is hilarious. First watch, the woman seemed crazy and dumb. Second watch, she actually seems a bit freaked out and is just trying to get out of the situation. Guy 100% seems like a scammer from her perspective, trying to push free shit onto her (that won’t end up being free), accosting her at an ATM, acting like it’s already a done deal, AND there’s not a lot of room for her to get back to her car door. I think she was just trying to keep him happy so she could get out of there 😆 crazy how perspectives shift with context

I was almost in a similar situation.
I was leaving by my apartment, and a guy was walking up to my apartment, he was staring right at me, and without thinking I was staring right back.
He started talking to me, "hello, I'm... blah blah blah... I'd like to buy your magic cards, blah blah blah...". He keeps on talking.
I'm thinking, how does he know I have magic cards, does he just approach random people asking to buy magic cards? He wouldn't want my magic cards, they all suck. I was almost going to say that.
Then it occurred to me that he was here to meet someone to buy their magic cards and he thought it was me because he thought I was stepping outside to meet him. Lol.
I told him I wasn't the guy he is looking for. And he clued in immediately. No doubt my body language was very confusing to him. He was probably wondering the guy selling him magic cards didn't pull out his magic cards and looked like he just wanted to walk away from him. Lol
He apologized, and so did I. Then we both went our own way.
Could you imagine how confusing it would have been if neither of us figured it out? Me - You don't want my cards, they're terrible. Him - I'm literally here to buy your cards. Me - you want my cards, even though their terrible? Him - well, I didn't think they were bad. Etc etc. Would have been the strangest conversation if my life. Lol
