Hello?

So the phone rings....mom answers "hello". Big pause. Then she says "Bonjour". I know she's in trouble. I head in her room where the phone is. I say "hello". The man on the other line tears off in French. I'm not catching a thing. I ask him "parlez-vous Anglais” he pauses. “Yes but I normally speak in French…does your husband speak French?” he asks. I’m thinking, my husband? I tell him “I’m just a visitor here”. It takes him a second and he apologizes and hangs up. My guess is it was a sales call. But we all had a good laugh that the guy would ask if my husband spoke French. Anyway.
