Speaking in Tongues

A Swiss man, looking for directions, pulls up at a bus stop where two Englishmen were waiting.
"Entschuldigung, sprechen Sie Deutsches?" he asks.
The Englishmen just stare at him.
"M'excusez-vous, parlez-vous français ?"
They continue to stare.
"Lo scusate, parlate italiano?"
No response.
"¿Me excusa, usted habla español?"
Still nothing. The Swiss man drives off in disgust.
One Englishman says to the other, "Y'know, maybe we ought to learn a foreign language."
"Why?" says the other. "That feller knew 4 languages, and it didn't do him any good!"
