I dont know how many times I tried to teach him to say Please give me two beers in French, Spanish, and Japanese. The only time he ever mastered the sentence was Italian. Too verbose for most monoglot Americans. Consider:
Antakaa minulle kaksi olutta.
versus:
Olut! Kaksi!

If they don’t speak beer in Finland, I’m not drinking there.
