Paris to New York

Writing in City Journal, Guy Sorman compares Paris to New York:

Living in Paris requires an advanced knowledge of the Parisian way of doing things, particularly when it comes to language. If you prove unable to pronounce the word “croissant” correctly, you will not get your croissant: you’ll be nudged away from the counter by impatient customers. Learn French or starve!
