During traveling abroad, it’s often not easy to communicate with people because you don’t know the language there.
However, when you understand what they said, it’s good to tell them that you understand what they mean.
As they may put effort to make you understand by using body language, easy words, or telling in English, they will be happy to know that you get it.
Telling it in their language can make them smile 😉
Let’s see how to say “I understand.” in 50 different languages.
