Of course they are – German week, Italian week, Spanish week – totally exotic. Should have been named Tienda English, perhaps?
Hello guys,
very interesting Doug, good comments Syd.
Sad, that they have no American week or Canadian week at Tienda English !
Since I find no way to upload pics to my comment here,
I ask you to have a look in my blog http://www.myuytips.com and
see my comments to Uruguayan – incongruous English words – advertising.
Have a great weekend.
