Accent shock I'm in the UK for working holiday now. There are a lot of people from different countries here. Even though I've only stayed here for a few days, I found that I seem to have more difficulties understanding people who have European accents. When I heard them speak to each other, even if they are from different countries, they didn't seem to have any problems understanding one another. It makes me wonder if it is a kind of culture difference. I'm interested to know if they find Asian accents (or more specific, Taiwanese accent, since I'm from Taiwan) more difficult to understand than other Europen accents.

What does "fair enough" mean? In what kind of condition you would use “fair enough?” Does it have multiple meanings?

I find myself use it often, but I can’t really explain why I use it.

Could anyone please clarify it for me? Thanks!

在什麼情況下你會使用「fair enough」？它有不同的意義嗎？

我很常用這個詞，但不能確切解釋為什麼用它。
