15 of 10 people in Wien are Turkish. Sometimes it's funny mostly it's annoying. Me: -Excuse me, do you sell Sacher cakes? (in English) She: -Hayır hayır (in Turkish) Me: -Türk müsünüz? (Are you Turkish?) She: -Hayır biraz anlıyor ("Just a little" -with a very bad accent-) Is my English that bad?😳

That's not really that strange. I also recognize most of the time if it is an Austrian who speaks English. The pronunciation is just off(like mine)
