How International Flirting Works
How would you reply when a German date asks “Hast du Feuer?” (Do you have a lighter?) What context would call for an Italian to exclaim “Dimmi se questo non è il destino!” (If this isn’t fate!)? And what would a Brazilian squeeze mean when they say “Eu vou fazer você suar!” ? (You’ll have to look that one up on your own!) With the Date Prepper, you’ll know what these mean and how to respond.
Designed as a fun way to get English speakers out of their monolingual comfort zone, this tool gives you the essential skills and phrases you need to come out on top.
Tips specifically for English speakers from inside the Babbel Date Prepper include:
- If you invite a German out for coffee, don’t be surprised when they expect you to pay your share — it’s common to split the bill.
- Scrub up well for an Italian — looking good is just as important as your listening skills.
- Your French date could greet you with up to three kisses (depending on where they’re from) so don’t offer an awkward handshake or a half-hearted hug.
- Brazilians are passionate by nature and are usually a little forward. If they like you, you’ll know about it pretty quickly.
- Your Spanish date is likely to turn up late — don’t be too disheartened.
