    I don’t disagree that English has very difficult aspects to it (spelling, idioms), but its far from being the most difficult to speak. Try learning Arabic, Hebrew, or any tonal language, they’ll make you cry.

    @wokabomb
    I know it’s a bit difficult to understand for native english speakers, but english is by far the most difficult to speak, because of pronunciation/word stress and the chaotic spelling (non phonetic language). French (or spanish, german…) pronunciation/phonetic is very regular compared to english.

    But you have to catch each french sounds and it “suddenly clicked”.

    By the way, the pronunciation in the video is really too exaggerated…

    thanks I knew all these phrases but the video helped with my pronunciation. I just finished French 2 in high school and hope to someday speak this language fluently.

    @1DerekRubin1 i guess it more or less depends on who you’re speaking to, I know people who sound exactly as you described, and I know others who are always light and helpful, without all of the superiority. :/

  10. TohruKirby says:

    Could she sound any slower?
    This feels slightly condescending…

    I have a flat in Paris (2 bedrooms and a living room), I’d love to exchange apartments with an American, I did it twice and I’m thinking about doing it maybe next year again.

  12. ouaf01 says:

    1DerekRubin1 va s’en prendre une grosse dans la gueule par un français prétentieux en tout cas !

  13. 1DerekRubin1 says:

    @musicallaful I hope so!

    It’s not even the language, just the way it’s spoke. French as I’ve heard is is spoken with an air of pretension and condescension I haven’t seen in any other language.

    @1DerekRubin1
    it’s just Parisian, Québecois sounds much better :)

  15. fantasticmrfox23 says:

    i like yr hair :)

  16. starchick11 says:

    is this recorded at judgemeadow?

  17. 1DerekRubin1 says:

    Most pretentious language on Earth.

    I can’t think of any other language that makes me want to hit the speaker in the face.

    Languages with nasal vowels are bound for extinction.

  18. incis1981 says:

    very useful, thx. wish there was another “quick pronunciation” after breaking the sounds..

  19. RiffRaffBlacksmith says:

    Also happens in every latin language. Although you say the H in ch. XD

  20. baigandine says:

    Also in Spanish you have an H you never say. Ever.

  21. baigandine says:

    The pronunciation is what is hard…You wouldn’t know it was any kind of romance language by listening to it.

  22. baigandine says:

    She sounds like she’s vomiting.

  23. twinkietoo says:

    @troyhistory
    definately

  24. BJ1980X says:

    Good point SexualTyrannosaurus! You tell those cowarldy French how it is! If only they were more like the Americans and the brave way that they joined the war 3 years later. And the way they deal with those communist types: invade a country and then after 60,000 Americans die, surrender and leave them to it.
    That’s the good old brave American way! Yeeeeehaaaaa!

  25. SexualTyrannosaurus1 says:

    The French are nothing but two bit spineless cowards. They should change their flag to be all white, symbolizing their cowardice. Personally it makes me very happy that in reprisal the Nazi’s shot about 50 people in France, typically a Jew or Communist, whenever a Nazi soldier was shot. The French are assholes, too. Stuck up faggots that think they are actually worth something. There is dog shit all over the streets of Paris, reflecting their inner selves. They aren’t worth anything.
