European Cartoon Festival - Roy Delgado


This is the hardback cover of the collection of cartoons who won prizes in an international cartoon contest in 2011.

My cartoon appeared on page 38.

It is always wise to submit cartoons that are captionless of course,  because obviously it translates the same in any language . . . and in Europe, most people speak several languages, unlike the United States where most people only speak one.

There's an old joke circulating in Europe that goes something like this:

  What do you call someone wo speaks TWO LANGUAGES ?  Answer: BI-LINGUAL.

What to you call someone who speaks THREE LANGUAGES ?
Answer: TRI-LINGUAL.

What do you call someone who speaks MANY LANGUAGES ?
Answer:  MULTI-LINGUAL.

AND - - -

What do you call someone who speaks only ONE LANGUAGE ? :

Answer: AN AMERICAN
