Ok, Lemmy, let’s another play a game!

And I honestly think this one’s more important.

Post how many languages in which you can say Please and Thank You, including your native language. If you can, please provide which languages and how to phonetically say them so the rest of us can learn!

I spent a fair amount of bopping around Europe in the early Aughts and as a native English speaker, I found everyone appreciating my bad mangled attempts at politeness.

    Do programming languages count? :)

    Here’s Go:

    package main

import "fmt"

func main() {
    fmt.Println("Please and Thank You")
}

      Why is it that this got the most upvotes, compared to the more genuine comments in this thread? :)

            Here’s a horrific example of bash and JS mashed together

            echo "console.log(process.argv[2])" | node - "Please and thank you"

            or bash and python if that’s your thing?

            echo "import sys; print(sys.argv[1])" | python - "Please and thank you"
