According to my friend who is an expat in France, think the thing about the French being nice about speaking English is that you tried to speak French first. It was his biggest piece of advice when I visited: the French can't stand people who come to their country and don't even try to say the most basic things in the local language. But if they can see you're making an effort, they'll happily speak English to you. I certainly found this to be true.
Seems pretty common sense to me. Randomly speaking to a stranger on the street in English is incredibly rude. You literally need to learn one phrase in the local language: excuse me, do you speak English. That's it. If you're a tourist and won't even go that far, that's on you for whatever rude treatment you may receive.
@@MrVovansim I speak a few varied languages (not totally fluent) and not once have I needed someone to prove that they speak English first before actually communicating with them. You’re right, it’s rude treatment but not deserved. And I reiterate, it’s Snobby AF.
@@tamtam8499 no, going to another country and making no attempt whatsoever to communicate with the locals in their own language is snobby AF.

I wouldn't be surprised of they're paying him a fee to shoot with them at this point. In the British Schoolboys series, they got footage and the boys got an all-expenses-paid trip in exchange. In this case, Armand is putting time and effort into shooting with them, and it's not a collab because Armand doesn't have any monetized social media, so it would make sense for them to pay him a talent fee
@@revinaque1342 could be but in the last video they said Armand offered to be on the channel for a while for some french videos before he starts college again so he probably could just be doing it for free.
i feel like is the other way around cause idk if you've notice but their audience loooooove armand. he's actually the most popular one in korean from the british schoolboys series. so it makes sense that they're keeping him around and let's be honest armand is such a charming young man and has an interesting background in which they can make videos of while having fun at the same time!
I'm french and I remember in 1st grade (in America) we were telling the class how we sayed cotton candy in our language it came to my turn and I sayed daddys beard the teacher didn't believe me until she searched it up
I love how Armand’s parents really preserved the French side in him even though he was born and raised there and personally thinks he’s more British. Being bilingual isn’t just about the speaking the language, the culture and history comes with it too. Sadly, That’s something I observed that’s lacking in some Asian communities here in America where they aim to preserve the culture but is losing the language, which is a major part of the culture. It’s difficult to be bilingual because it also comes with existential crisis in two different cultures but it also has MANY benefits. So cool to see that his parents seems to have raised him to adapt to both worlds.
This is because racism faced by Asians in America is still very common -- less now (even with all the hate crimes) but still there and is very normalized. People used to get teased all the time for foreign accents, and in some communities the racism was so bad that parents simply did not teach their children the language in an effort to help them assimilate faster and less painfully, and in some cases for safety as well. It's a very different situation.
Yep. The word is assimilation. It’s the byproduct of living in a diverse environment, but remaining a minority of that population. Sucks for the vast multitude of things tied to identity and culture though. 😢
French immigrant speaking English and French - "Oh, wow, you're so smart. You're bilingual? You're so interesting!" Asian or Hispanic immigrant speaking two languages - "This is an English-speaking country! Speak ENGLISH or get out!"
@@jacksawild as a french I did not know that! Here we don't really joke about the brittish. I don't know enough brittish stereotypes to make jokes about.
You realize that high fashion beauty standards are changing right? Armand is known as conventionally attractive, but not uniquely attractive that designer brands are looking for. Look up Burberry models and you’ll see. People with conventionally attractive faces are forgotten more easily, so there’s greater emphasis now on bringing in weirdly attractive people instead. And to be fair, there are hundreds of guys in this world that look like Armand, similar hair and face, but there’s only one of very specific-looking models.
I find it hilarious that depending on the video content, Armand can either be British highschooler or French highschooler. I feel the struggle coming from a mixed ethnic/nationality background myself lol
Yes!! A shared struggle can be such strong common ground, even among people who grew up in different countries from each other, because the common struggles make them so alike. I loved when Josh called Ollie out for "asking a TCK about their cultural identity" because that's a great way to put it. Back when my family moved back to the US from overseas, I used to feel bad when people would ask me "How's it feel to be back home?" and I didn't have the heart to tell them that Indonesia felt like home, but that the US was home to my parents so I still felt like I belonged, just not in the same way. It would be really interesting to interview Armand and Josh with questions about their experiences as TCKs, if I start a UA-cam podcast channel like I've been dreaming about, that's the kind of content I would make-interviewing adult third culture kids. Just realized I rambled on somebody else's comment 😅 sorry
@@grammar_ash Thank you for sharing! I personally really liked to read your thoughts 😃 and if you ever do start that podcast, I'd really like to listen to it! I'm not technically a TCK but was raised by 3 different sets of immigrants (Colombian, English, and French). What was really interesting for me is that my identity always changed depending on whose house I was in. In the Colombian home I was the French cousin, in the French home I was the Colombian cousin, and in the English home I was the Canadian/American cousin but to my neighbours, I had an odd accent that sounded like a cross between a Canadian and an English accent and unless I work to change it, my accent will bounce around and sound different in various situations 😅🤣 but for the most part, I've always lived in the same country just caught between very specific cultural communities within the region I live in so people in my own region will often ask me "where are you from?" and it's just way too complicated and personal to explain thoroughly each time so I just say "from here and raised by immigrants" 🥳
@@EyeGlassTrainofMind That's so interesting! There are similar cases of people growing up in environments with a lot of people coming and going and having a global worldview as a result of knowing people from different countries while growing up, and I think that this is being added to the definition of a third culture kid. The example I'm familiar with is of the children of professors and teachers who worked at missionary training centers. Their childhood experiences mirrored many of other TCKs who "spent a considerate number of their developmental years in a country foreign to their parents," but because these children had not lived overseas themselves, they were originally not counted in the same category. However, they literally grew up in that third culture! Living in the same country as the "first culture" among all the rest of the missionaries who were returning from their "second culture," they were in one of the fairly rare places where the third culture is considered the norm. So I think that being raised by immigrants-especially three different sets!-should be considered part of the definition of a third culture kid. In fact, it's the experiences of people like you that I would love to focus on in a future project.
When you know America is a melting pot so we have multiple languages being spoken along with English we have multiple cultures that are exposed here because of those people imagine how they feel
I only took two years of high school French eons ago, but this had me actually laughing out loud, slapping my knee, and clapping! Fantastic! *** also, sadly reminded me that, because I am rubbish at math, is why I cannot count very high in French. 🤣
we don't even realize it anymore so it doesn't feel like maths but when you're 6 and learning how to write numbers with letters it's kinda weird (quatre vingt dix neuf = 99 for example)
Young Parisians and other French students have been studying in Montreal, Canada because a deal has been in place since 1968 allowing them to study at the same price as local students. Many come to learn a second language or study in English universities before returning to France. The dollar is cheaper and student living conditions are much better in the province of Quebec. Many go back bilingual.
3:13 "Josh, can you not over complicate things", said Ollie who deepfake + wrote a book for his best friend and recently cloned his best friend's voice
The French numerals are partially inherited from the way the Celts enumerated : instead of counting in base 10, they counted in base 20, and grouped the numbers by groups of twenties and tens. So 133 would be seen as "6 times 20, plus 10, plus 3". This way of counting was partially preserved until the 19th century, including when roman numerals were still the norm, with a "XX" in superscript. A famous hospital in Paris is called "Les Quinze-vingts", which litteraly means "The Fifteen-twenties", because its capacity was of 3 000 beds, and at its entry was written a "XV" (15 in Roman numerals) and a "XX" in superscript, to signify a capacity of 15x20 beds. This kind of notation lost its meaning with time, though.
There's a second system too, rooted in latin, with endings in -ante that gives septante-70 and nonante-90 in Belgium and Switzerland. Switzerland also uses huitante for 80.
@@maleineperle1770 And to be fair, as a French, I must say the Swiss numeration makes more sense than the French one. But no French speaking country had gotten rid of "dix-sept", "dix-huit" and "dix-neuf", sadly.
There are actually a few of us who can speak without an accent and not be born in an English speaking country, or even be raised in one. I know most french people have atrocious English skills, our presidents over the last decades leading by example, but still. We aren't THAT bad.
"Baguette" means indeed "wand". The expression "baguette de pain" ("wand of bread") is usually shortened to "baguette", but this word is still used to designate a standard wand in French.
@@saga_oneil Not knowing French myself I would have thought the word for wand would have been "baton." In Louisiana, USA the capital city is Baton Rouge.
@@HermanVonPetri Well a conductor's baton is called... "une baguette de chef d'orchestre". There is a slight overlay between "bâton" and "baguette", and even "barre", but "bâton" will be used near exclusively for a wood stick.

@@Cloudfive55 Cambridge students can go on to become whatever they want 😊 Armand did say that he doesn't really see himself working in either history or politics, he just wants to study those subjects. So who knows, he could go into journalism or UA-cam in the future
@@Cloudfive55 i said on camera and i also said on the big screen, i’m not just talking youtube. He’s free to do whatever he wants with his future. I just think he’s a natural on screen😊
@@revinaque1342 did he really said that? He can do whatever he wants but I don't understand people who do this like why you spend years and alot of money to study things you won't do in the future ? I can't understand their logic tbh
France is physically gorgeous. It took me 3 days to regain my confidence to speak fluidly and I was delighted by the welcome I received from the French people everywhere I went. I'm an old chuck now but I still remember a bit of the French I studied in school even though it was 50 years ago. I hope to visit again before I get too old to walk up those cobbled streets to reach those charming little hill top villages.
Once I was shopping in the city with my little cousin, she is french. We are mostly talking in French and at some point, while we spoke about Harry Potter, she told me she wants to a "Baguette magique" and I responded with "Are you hungry?" which was just a hilarious moment for both of us.
The word 'baguette' means a stick or twig. The English word 'wand' is also sometimes used for long thin twigs on a tree. And the baguette bread is called that because it is a stick of bread.
yes, but 'baguette' implies a stick size somewhere between 'bâton' and 'brindille'. It's quite vague, I know. I more often see it used in books than in everyday speech.
@@tabby_cat It can, yes. But it is mostly used for your standard wand. All types of wands : magic wand ("baguette magique"), bread wand ("baguette de pain"), etc. And ironically a conductor's baton (a direct loanword from French) is refered to as a "baguette de chef d'orchestre" in French.
As a French living in the UK myself , i have to say, it's inspiring how Armand's parents introduced their language and culture (which is also Armand's) to Armand who was raised in Britain. I need their tips for when I have kids! lool
There is negative history between the 2 nations right? Any history buffs care to give some brief insight? I know Britain prevented Napolean from dominating Europe (Napolean wars) as is a reason that a lot of the world speak English (found this out on a itunes podcast)
@@PaulW4 France and England have been the two dominating powers in Europe from, let's say, ~800 to the first half of the 20th century. Normans invaded England in 1066, that's why today 30% of English words come from French. The hundred year's war (a war that went on actively between 1337 and 1453) was between France and England. For a long time, the whole southwestern part of France was under British rule. These two countries have basically always been rivals. And yes the British defeated Napoleon, mainly because they were a monarchy, and wanted a Bourbon back on the throne of France. Much the continuation of what happened throughout the middle ages. There's even a little (outdated) nickname for England in French - "la perfide Albion". Literally : "the treacherous Albion", Albion being England's medieval name. All in all yes there definitely is some negative history but nowadays France and England work together closely and are strong allies so everything's good.
"une baguette" literally is a little stick (of wood). The name of the famous french bread came after that : une baguette (de pain). The same for the wand in french, it's a magic little stick : une baguette magique.

I spent most of the time in Bretagne when I visited France. That gâteau breton is no joke, in fact any pastries with Bretagne butter in them is just 👌🏼 Bretagne is such an underrated French destination
Well it is not known outside of France but it is very known in France. This is where i lived (i am French) and Bretagne is full of parisians in the summer
OMG, just the intro is bringing forth such deep belly, feeling, tear-inducing, laughter; tupac vs. vouspac, BWAHAHAHA!!! You two are absolutely brilliant in comedic content!!! Much love, hugs, and appreciation from a high-school French Language learner from the U.S.A!
Having French as your native language is like starting with the highest difficulty, I'm talking from experience but then again learning English has been really easy thanks to this fact, and as a matter of fact I prefer English for its simplicity and straight to the point way of thinking
😅 french is pretty easy for english speakers too, it's not considered one of the difficult languages, russian, mandarin and arabic are up there. Also greek is ridiculously unrelated to most languages and hard for anyone to learn.
@@seldom_bucketYeah but when it's talk about passé simple (In real life, it's okay), les valeurs du temps and some of these shitty things it's rly difficult
@@seldom_bucket The order I learnt them in was for their sound and in that same order their difficulty increases. Did anyone else who's done any extent of languages also find this? My order: French, Italian and Spanish. An example: To say "thank you for your assistance", in Italian "Grazie per l'auto", I wasn't sure what the l' was and still don't really.
I went to France on holiday a lot growing up and there was a very big shift in English speaking. As a child nobody spoke a word of English there. When I was in my late teens it was a lot more common. middle-aged- and old people still don't seem to really do it, but the younger people do.
Until 2008, learning English was actually not compulsary in French schools : depending of your school, you could be proposed to learn German, Spanish or Italian instead as your primary foreign language. Most of the people choose English, and most of those who didn't picked it as secondary foreign language, but it was possible to not learn English at all, albeit being very rare. Since 2010, English is compulsary as the primary foreign language, and you get to choose a secondary one later, usually Spanish, German or Italian. Plus English has been made compulsary in elementary school, while it was compulsary only from middle school onward before.
@@PrograError The French Academy is a very outdated, out if touch institution whose rulings are not normative in France (contrary to the Commission de la langue française et des langues de France, a much less known institution, which is much less controvertial), it only has some kind of "soft power" and has lost much of its influence in the last decades.

6:43 in India (north I believe)(hindi to be more specific) the word for cotton candy is ‘grandma’s hair’ because our cotton candy/fairy floss/ daddy’s beard was white, till the colors came along.
1:49 Best MEME EVER! French Numbers are a different kettle of fish. Although I’ve heard that in Belgian and Swiss versions of French, you can say ‘septante’, ‘huitante’ or ‘nonante’.
4:00 - This was exactly my experience when I visited Paris for a trade show in 1997. I later was told that this was the standard French, or at least Parisian, insult, i.e. the refusal to speak French to non-French speakers. But then, after hearing my Southern US accent, I had some Brits at the show ask me to speak English also.
As a native English speaker from Canada, the reading French vs listening to French is so true! I'm Canadian and part of our public schooling includes mandatory French classes till high school, after that it's optional. So basically I took French for 8 years (ages 6-13)and all I can say is "hello my name is" "can I please use the washroom/water fountain" and "please" which I can remember myself in the 3rd grade memorizing the word for please because it sounds like silver plates in English 😂 I took French again my first year of Uni but it was incredibly hard to keep up with on top of other courses, so I didn't continue with it. I remember finding it was easier to use the workbook because when my professor spoke I had no idea what he was saying half the time. How the language sounds vs how it's written can be very different! I can read way more French than I can speak because there's also a lot of similar words to English. Someday I'd love to learn French!
Désolés je viens 9mois après mais ce ne sont pas les belges ou suisses qui ont inventés ces mots, ils descendes du latin la France le disait avant que la Belgique existe ou la suisse, enfin faut plus ce renseigne désolé la flegme la il est tard donc je vais au dodo bonne nuit.

And as much as I love seeing him on screen, I also can't wait for the day when I'll be able to hear that he's become a successful minister or whatever he wants to be. Lad's got a real good head on his shoulders. All the best, Armand!
It's actually interesting that you guys learn lots of french norms with Armand. Coming from Quebec/Canadian, I'm also a fluent french speaker and it's interesting to see the grammatical differences between French and Canadian French. Would be fun if you guys react to Quebec French...

3:54 🤣😂 "I was trying to speak French and everyone was like, 'No, speak English.' 'Super welcoming after the pandemic, I think.'" Actually, about 25 years ago this happened to me too. 🤣 I went with my French class to France and since I was one of the top in my class, I thought I'd try out my high school French and ask for a simple price of food. "C'est combien?" Man, that lady's reply was so quick! I must have looked like deer in the headlights cuz after a few beats, she responded to me in English. 😳😆
I loooooooooooved this so much. It made me laugh so much. I live in the states, born and raised in California, and I studied French in high school for 5 semesters then toured Paris when I graduated. So I appreciated the American jokes and the French ones too 💛 I just discovered this channel today through your video where a military major guy reacted to memes, and I recently met someone who was in the US army for 10 years and was in Iraq also. I loved the stories and insight your guest shared. And I was surprised you had the subtitles in English and Korean!!! I started studying Korean after French! So... Looking forward to more from you two
Baguette is more of a word describing the shape of the object ! Its like a stick or a pole, so that shape of bread is our most popular, the baguette one, but we have others of course
Quick explaination as to why we French count this way when reaching 70 : As you might know, France was part of La Gaulle, and has celtic roots. The Celts use to count in base 20 (10 fingers + 10 toes), henceforth why it somehow got preserved and is still in use nowadays. Switzerland and Belgium use the alternative though : Septante, Octante, Nonante. Also : For the "Qu'est-ce que c'est que cette chose là?", it is quite a long and somewhat formal version of "C'est quoi?", "C'est quoi ça?", "Qu'est-ce que c'est?", etc. About the "We don't do that here" : French are infamous for not speaking English. Yet, in Europe, studies have shown that below the French are Italians and Spanish when it comes to not speaking English. For Sidewalk, which is "Trottoir" in French, you might notice some words also end with "oir", such as "Miroir" (mirror), "Bavoir" (bib), "Fumoir" (smoking room) or "Boudoir" for instance. When a word ends with this "terminaison", it can usually be thought as "The place or tool onto which/where you ...". So for Trottoir, it's the place where you "Trotter", or a "Miroir" is a tool into which you "Mirer"(to gaze at) at oneself. A Boudoir is a place where you "Bouder" (to sulk).

Yes!! A shared struggle can be such strong common ground, even among people who grew up in different countries from each other, because the common struggles make them so alike.
I loved when Josh called Ollie out for "asking a TCK about their cultural identity" because that's a great way to put it. Back when my family moved back to the US from overseas, I used to feel bad when people would ask me "How's it feel to be back home?" and I didn't have the heart to tell them that Indonesia felt like home, but that the US was home to my parents so I still felt like I belonged, just not in the same way.
It would be really interesting to interview Armand and Josh with questions about their experiences as TCKs, if I start a UA-cam podcast channel like I've been dreaming about, that's the kind of content I would make-interviewing adult third culture kids.
Just realized I rambled on somebody else's comment 😅 sorry
Meanwhile you also have american/indian highschooler (max), albanian highschooler (ray), ethiopian highschooler (nati) and more...
@@grammar_ash Thank you for sharing! I personally really liked to read your thoughts 😃 and if you ever do start that podcast, I'd really like to listen to it! I'm not technically a TCK but was raised by 3 different sets of immigrants (Colombian, English, and French). What was really interesting for me is that my identity always changed depending on whose house I was in. In the Colombian home I was the French cousin, in the French home I was the Colombian cousin, and in the English home I was the Canadian/American cousin but to my neighbours, I had an odd accent that sounded like a cross between a Canadian and an English accent and unless I work to change it, my accent will bounce around and sound different in various situations 😅🤣 but for the most part, I've always lived in the same country just caught between very specific cultural communities within the region I live in so people in my own region will often ask me "where are you from?" and it's just way too complicated and personal to explain thoroughly each time so I just say "from here and raised by immigrants" 🥳
@@EyeGlassTrainofMind That's so interesting! There are similar cases of people growing up in environments with a lot of people coming and going and having a global worldview as a result of knowing people from different countries while growing up, and I think that this is being added to the definition of a third culture kid. The example I'm familiar with is of the children of professors and teachers who worked at missionary training centers. Their childhood experiences mirrored many of other TCKs who "spent a considerate number of their developmental years in a country foreign to their parents," but because these children had not lived overseas themselves, they were originally not counted in the same category. However, they literally grew up in that third culture! Living in the same country as the "first culture" among all the rest of the missionaries who were returning from their "second culture," they were in one of the fairly rare places where the third culture is considered the norm.
So I think that being raised by immigrants-especially three different sets!-should be considered part of the definition of a third culture kid. In fact, it's the experiences of people like you that I would love to focus on in a future project.
When you know America is a melting pot so we have multiple languages being spoken along with English we have multiple cultures that are exposed here because of those people imagine how they feel

Young Parisians and other French students have been studying in Montreal, Canada because a deal has been in place since 1968 allowing them to study at the same price as local students. Many come to learn a second language or study in English universities before returning to France. The dollar is cheaper and student living conditions are much better in the province of Quebec. Many go back bilingual.
3:13 "Josh, can you not over complicate things", said Ollie who deepfake + wrote a book for his best friend and recently cloned his best friend's voice
"What we were experiencing was pity" I lost it 😂
The French numerals are partially inherited from the way the Celts enumerated : instead of counting in base 10, they counted in base 20, and grouped the numbers by groups of twenties and tens. So 133 would be seen as "6 times 20, plus 10, plus 3". This way of counting was partially preserved until the 19th century, including when roman numerals were still the norm, with a "XX" in superscript. A famous hospital in Paris is called "Les Quinze-vingts", which litteraly means "The Fifteen-twenties", because its capacity was of 3 000 beds, and at its entry was written a "XV" (15 in Roman numerals) and a "XX" in superscript, to signify a capacity of 15x20 beds. This kind of notation lost its meaning with time, though.
There's a second system too, rooted in latin, with endings in -ante that gives septante-70 and nonante-90 in Belgium and Switzerland. Switzerland also uses huitante for 80.
@@maleineperle1770 And to be fair, as a French, I must say the Swiss numeration makes more sense than the French one. But no French speaking country had gotten rid of "dix-sept", "dix-huit" and "dix-neuf", sadly.
@@funram why would that be necessary?
@@maleineperle1770 Because it's not consistent with "douze", "treize", "quatorze", "quinze" and "seize".

American here. I love Jolly! These are hilarious 🤣 Can someone explain Armand's background? English accent, school in London, but French?
Both his parents are French but he was born and raised in England.
TBH, you can hear a hint of French intonation when Armand speaks English, but it helps that he speaks a very posh English too.
There are actually a few of us who can speak without an accent and not be born in an English speaking country, or even be raised in one.
I know most french people have atrocious English skills, our presidents over the last decades leading by example, but still. We aren't THAT bad.
@@GreyPunkWolf tu connais la Norvège ou la Finlande ?
What. Baguette = Wand!? 🥖
Hoping for Armand to now do a Fromage tasting video with Ollie's Dad. 🧀
"Baguette" means indeed "wand". The expression "baguette de pain" ("wand of bread") is usually shortened to "baguette", but this word is still used to designate a standard wand in French.
@@funram exactly ! That's why we call chopsticks "baguettes" as well
@@saga_oneil Not knowing French myself I would have thought the word for wand would have been "baton." In Louisiana, USA the capital city is Baton Rouge.
@@HermanVonPetri Well a conductor's baton is called... "une baguette de chef d'orchestre". There is a slight overlay between "bâton" and "baguette", and even "barre", but "bâton" will be used near exclusively for a wood stick.
@@funram yes "bâton" is actually "stick" as we say a glue stick in English, it's literally "bâton de colle" in French (colle = glue)
armand is soooo natural on camera i genuinely wouldn't be surprised if he goes down this path later on, i could see him on the big screen too he's doing so well i feel like a proud mom🥺

Yassssssss giving us what we NEED
France is physically gorgeous. It took me 3 days to regain my confidence to speak fluidly and I was delighted by the welcome I received from the French people everywhere I went. I'm an old chuck now but I still remember a bit of the French I studied in school even though it was 50 years ago. I hope to visit again before I get too old to walk up those cobbled streets to reach those charming little hill top villages.
Once I was shopping in the city with my little cousin, she is french. We are mostly talking in French and at some point, while we spoke about Harry Potter, she told me she wants to a "Baguette magique" and I responded with "Are you hungry?" which was just a hilarious moment for both of us.
Learned French for almost 2 years in my college days, those memes summarised all my feelings perfectly. Tres bien 😂
The word 'baguette' means a stick or twig. The English word 'wand' is also sometimes used for long thin twigs on a tree. And the baguette bread is called that because it is a stick of bread.
A stick would be more commonly refered to as a "bâton" or even a "branche", though. And a twig as a "brindille".
yes, but 'baguette' implies a stick size somewhere between 'bâton' and 'brindille'. It's quite vague, I know. I more often see it used in books than in everyday speech.
@@tabby_cat It can, yes. But it is mostly used for your standard wand. All types of wands : magic wand ("baguette magique"), bread wand ("baguette de pain"), etc.
And ironically a conductor's baton (a direct loanword from French) is refered to as a "baguette de chef d'orchestre" in French.
I was explaining where the connection came from, not where the word is most commonly used.
@@tabby_cat I see what you mean, baguette is a shape, the bread is named after ^^

There is negative history between the 2 nations right? Any history buffs care to give some brief insight? I know Britain prevented Napolean from dominating Europe (Napolean wars) as is a reason that a lot of the world speak English (found this out on a itunes podcast)
@@PaulW4 France and England have been the two dominating powers in Europe from, let's say, ~800 to the first half of the 20th century. Normans invaded England in 1066, that's why today 30% of English words come from French. The hundred year's war (a war that went on actively between 1337 and 1453) was between France and England. For a long time, the whole southwestern part of France was under British rule. These two countries have basically always been rivals. And yes the British defeated Napoleon, mainly because they were a monarchy, and wanted a Bourbon back on the throne of France. Much the continuation of what happened throughout the middle ages. There's even a little (outdated) nickname for England in French - "la perfide Albion". Literally : "the treacherous Albion", Albion being England's medieval name. All in all yes there definitely is some negative history but nowadays France and England work together closely and are strong allies so everything's good.
"une baguette" literally is a little stick (of wood). The name of the famous french bread came after that : une baguette (de pain). The same for the wand in french, it's a magic little stick : une baguette magique.
7:33 as a maori i cant resist cheering at the fact that maori was a translation suggestion on a french to english translation in a video about a french person reacting to french memes

Having French as your native language is like starting with the highest difficulty, I'm talking from experience but then again learning English has been really easy thanks to this fact, and as a matter of fact I prefer English for its simplicity and straight to the point way of thinking
pas vraiment, try having Russian as your first language 😅
😅 french is pretty easy for english speakers too, it's not considered one of the difficult languages, russian, mandarin and arabic are up there.
Also greek is ridiculously unrelated to most languages and hard for anyone to learn.

My order: French, Italian and Spanish. An example: To say "thank you for your assistance", in Italian "Grazie per l'auto", I wasn't sure what the l' was and still don't really.

I went to France on holiday a lot growing up and there was a very big shift in English speaking. As a child nobody spoke a word of English there. When I was in my late teens it was a lot more common. middle-aged- and old people still don't seem to really do it, but the younger people do.
Until 2008, learning English was actually not compulsary in French schools : depending of your school, you could be proposed to learn German, Spanish or Italian instead as your primary foreign language. Most of the people choose English, and most of those who didn't picked it as secondary foreign language, but it was possible to not learn English at all, albeit being very rare. Since 2010, English is compulsary as the primary foreign language, and you get to choose a secondary one later, usually Spanish, German or Italian. Plus English has been made compulsary in elementary school, while it was compulsary only from middle school onward before.
@@funram but then you get the "french council" banning english loan words...
@@PrograError The French Academy is a very outdated, out if touch institution whose rulings are not normative in France (contrary to the Commission de la langue française et des langues de France, a much less known institution, which is much less controvertial), it only has some kind of "soft power" and has lost much of its influence in the last decades.

Although I’ve heard that in Belgian and Swiss versions of French, you can say ‘septante’, ‘huitante’ or ‘nonante’.
In Belgium, it's septante and nonante, but still quatre-vingts 🤷🏼♀️
I love how Armand looks at Ollie intently, like he's really paying attention. hahahah
4:00 - This was exactly my experience when I visited Paris for a trade show in 1997. I later was told that this was the standard French, or at least Parisian, insult, i.e. the refusal to speak French to non-French speakers. But then, after hearing my Southern US accent, I had some Brits at the show ask me to speak English also.
As a native English speaker from Canada, the reading French vs listening to French is so true! I'm Canadian and part of our public schooling includes mandatory French classes till high school, after that it's optional. So basically I took French for 8 years (ages 6-13)and all I can say is "hello my name is" "can I please use the washroom/water fountain" and "please" which I can remember myself in the 3rd grade memorizing the word for please because it sounds like silver plates in English 😂 I took French again my first year of Uni but it was incredibly hard to keep up with on top of other courses, so I didn't continue with it. I remember finding it was easier to use the workbook because when my professor spoke I had no idea what he was saying half the time. How the language sounds vs how it's written can be very different! I can read way more French than I can speak because there's also a lot of similar words to English. Someday I'd love to learn French!
Love this series with Armand. Thanks @Jolly this video made me howl with laughter and it felt good
i really wish Armand had translated "See you Jolly soon!" to "À jolie *bientôt* " it makes more sense grammatically and is still a literal translation
I wish he actually had translated Jolly to a word that actually means "happy" and not "beautiful"😂
Now that I think about it, he maybe translated it that way because he thought of the expression “À très vite” so honestly “À Jolly vite” makes sense 🤔
I love these Armand videos! Please make him a regular or at least a semi regular!
As a non-french high-schooler who studies French, the pains of learning the language are too underrated.
if it can make you feel better even for french people it's hard to learn our own language
3:18 Actually, people from Belgium and Switzerland made up new words for 70, 80 and 90, "septante, "octante"/"huitante" and "nonante"

Baguette is more of a word describing the shape of the object ! Its like a stick or a pole, so that shape of bread is our most popular, the baguette one, but we have others of course
Quick explaination as to why we French count this way when reaching 70 :
As you might know, France was part of La Gaulle, and has celtic roots. The Celts use to count in base 20 (10 fingers + 10 toes), henceforth why it somehow got preserved and is still in use nowadays.
Switzerland and Belgium use the alternative though : Septante, Octante, Nonante.
Also : For the "Qu'est-ce que c'est que cette chose là?", it is quite a long and somewhat formal version of "C'est quoi?", "C'est quoi ça?", "Qu'est-ce que c'est?", etc.
About the "We don't do that here" : French are infamous for not speaking English. Yet, in Europe, studies have shown that below the French are Italians and Spanish when it comes to not speaking English.
For Sidewalk, which is "Trottoir" in French, you might notice some words also end with "oir", such as "Miroir" (mirror), "Bavoir" (bib), "Fumoir" (smoking room) or "Boudoir" for instance. When a word ends with this "terminaison", it can usually be thought as "The place or tool onto which/where you ...". So for Trottoir, it's the place where you "Trotter", or a "Miroir" is a tool into which you "Mirer"(to gaze at) at oneself. A Boudoir is a place where you "Bouder" (to sulk).
Armand has a unique look that gets me. I find him extremely attractive, apart from his smile, it's his personality. But also his face. It's so structured.
