What to Say When Someone is Rude in English (with 4 Simple Strategies)

Learn how to respond to a rude comment or question in English — for non-native English speakers. For example, when someone gets impatient and rude with you because you’re struggling with how to express yourself in English.

The truth is, people may say rude things in different situations, for different reasons. Sometimes they know they are being rude. Maybe they're having a bad day or maybe they just aren't kind.

And sometimes rude comments are unintentional.

Either way, the key thing is to always stay calm before you respond. Staying calm and making a good choice about how to handle it gives you the best chance to manage the situation well. So, before you react in anger or hurt, take a deep breath, count to ten and confidently choose how you wish to respond.

But here’s one important truth: Kindness always wins.
