I'm going to Egypt, language problem.
I'm going to Egypt, I know only English from the languages and I'm far from perfect in principle, will there be any problems on the trip in connection with this?

My friend and I, apart from tou beer and double whiskey, also know little, but thank God there were no problems. Almost all Egyptians know Russian, but only if everything is fine. As soon as problems arise, they forget it, just like English. Such is the mentality. Drive boldly. Everything will be fine.

Sharma definitely won't? Where will it be in Egypt? In general, from Egypt, as I understand it best, is Sharm El Sheikh?

Problems without English can be in Marsa Alam, for example. The fact that Sharm is the best in Egypt is a moot point, a matter of taste.

Only 25% of Egyptians live in Sharm, the rest are foreigners, and half of them are Russians, so there will be no problems. And, of course, since this is a resort town, many Egyptians speak Russian. If in doubt, you can buy yourself a phrasebook or download the most common expressions from the net.

I guess I was unlucky with the hotel. The waiters practically do not speak Russian, English is also weak (except for a couple of people). We went along the coast to restaurants, they talk better there. But there were problems with the bill, they did not want to understand in any way, in order to bring the bill. So learn the phrase "Bill please" :)

To lemish: on the contrary, I was lucky with the hotel, I try to look for such, but it's difficult. What is the hotel?

There are more ridiculous cases when you speak Arabic (elementary) to them, and they ask you a question in good Russian - do you know my language ??? )))

To lemish: thanks for the answer, I studied the review since the hotel staff does not know Russian, so there are few of our compatriots among the vacationers, right?

It is not a fact that if they do not know Russian, that they are not in the hotel. Just returned from Rehana. Full of staff who do not know English or Russian. Although I had the impression that I was resting in the Crimea. If something was needed, the managers were called.

The hotel itself is small, there were a lot of Spaniards, Russians, there were 10-15 people, and even then we did not encounter them. The only thing on the beach you will hear Russian speech, because. the beach is filmed at the gaffy of the hotel.

By the way, you can always swim in the sea in Egypt, in the sense of any day of the year? Now swimming was forbidden because of the shark story only?
