As a french speaker (from France) you can understand Pokimane better because she articulates more. xQc speaks really fast and his canadian accent is more pronounced
Quebec French is easier to understand when you live here lmao
Also it’s not a Canadian accent it’s just a Québecois accent
Honestly, pokimane sounds like she's speaking French from France with an American accent and xqc sounds like he's just speaking French from Quebec
I understand him better cause I learned quebecois french first, then english.
Parisian or metropolitan french is easier to understand when not a native speaker tho.
well she's north african..
that was so fun to listen to, pokimane’s french is like my grade 12 immersion level of french, and xqc is just a french maniac
ye lol, poki sounds like an A-Student french in school, kinda slow but tries to say everything correctly. XQC is like a drunk french random guy lol
xQc’s French is actually a little off because his accent is all over the place. Probably because he doesn’t speak French as often as before. Maybe Poki’s accent was influencing his French Canadian accent though
@@flyersfan0287 agree! french is my second language and english is my third . I can't understand québécois accent easily than let's say understanding irish or australian .
@@gordonbman2911 xQc's french is just as fast speaking as his English haha.
@@kasper7250 i live in france and honestly his speaking is pretty normal speed even here
It's pretty crazy how quickly someone can lose their fluidity in their native language when they dont speak it as often as they use to
both crazy and sad
Happened to me with my native language
happened to me as well, after 10 years in the US I have to ask/look up words all the time
Yea after 6 years of living in japan only speaking in Japanese when I went back to my own country I had to put so much effort in composing a coherent French sentence. I think your brain just gets used to the sentence structure and shortcuts expressions in one language that when you switch you have to recover all your saved phrases and expressions.
True, but when it comes to native language it comes back very fast. The thing is X's trying hard to be understandable in french because he has the most french canadian slang and accent ever, it's like he's translating to regular french
People who don't speak French: omg he's probably saying something romantic
Him and Her: English people are stupid lmao
I speak French fluently, She said she wants his juicer and x said i bought one last week. I dont think x picked up on it
Nope i read the comment that translated tbe video
Feels so good to understand french lol
@@Redeyez2424 I can also speak French. Can confirm what this guy is saying
🤥
I don’t understand French at all, but I can tell they said “stupid” in French.. LUL
As an European, I understood Pokimane better than XQC. XQC talks so damn fast and as he said because he’s Quebec, he mixes and cuts a few words together which makes it harder French people to understand.
Yeah we easily understand fremch from france but people from france have trouble understanding us
Tenquiet big, ces pas gros chose.
Same here, I don't speak french fluently, but I can understand Poki better than X.
So the same exact way he speaks in English is how he speaks French?
@@londoneliot4588 Very true haha
THE OFFICIAL TRANSLATION COMING IN HOT :
P : You wanna speak French ?
X : Sometimes but my French is, you know...
P : Your french is very good. Mine looks like shit. You sound really from Quebec.
X : My french is really scuffed.
P : Really ?
X : Not really, I speak french with my parents.
P : Me too. I almost never practice tho but I went to Canada for 3 weeks and it's a bit better.
X : You speak like...
P : ....Like a baby
X : No, like you're french or belgian. (Translator's note : This is because Poki is from Morocco where they speak French because of past french colonies)
P : Oh really ?
X : Yeah, it's more french than...
P : You know, I have a "théorie", "théorie" is french for theory, right ? I have a theory that you speak fast in english because you speak really fast in French
X : Yeah, yeah
P : But french speaking people just speak fast but because you and I learnt french before English, we speak fast and we think fast so when we started learning english we started to think fast and speak fast but english speaking people are stupid, they understand nothing (R OMEGALUL LLED) no i'm kidding they're not stupid, but you know what i mean
X : Yeah, i understand. In Quebec, we smash words together
Thank you
"english speaking people are stupid, they understand nothing"
can't get truer than this (not english or mcdonalds here)
un garcon
You drop this btw 👑
this happens with all non-native english speakers apparently. Apparently, most people who have english as their second language, speak it a whole lot faster than people who have it as their first

Love u man, don't be ashamed of your French accent, we don't mind you speaking!
I wish he would speak more french with random people, Idk why but it's just fun hearing him speak his native language
What’s so funny though is that he can’t speak his native language well. It’s easier for him to speak English but even then it’s still scuffed. It’s like Felix can’t speak any language lol. I’ve never known someone who has an accent but can’t speak the language that causes the accent.
yeah he legit lost some of his french
@@WKAnonther yeah but its not too bad. It's just that sometimes some words in english are more convienient to say so if you're french/english bilingual you're just gonna pop and english word in you'Re sentence cause it fits better.
@@WKAnonther if you don’t use it enough you lose it so it’s understandable
@@cskelly3783 your statement doesn’t make sense because I can understand him perfectly while he’s speaking his native language the only issue is that he shoves some random English words into his French sentences but that’s normal when you’re bilingual.

" QUEBEC ACCENT SO SCUFFED LULW " - Mike, 13, who has never left the US and has no clue how to speak French.
I mean it is a bit scuffed. French people from france typically have a hard time understanding Quebec French.
@@ardellandaya1965 But it's ot scuffed tho, I understood everything he said perfectly. People here in france make no effort to understand other accent. Also, dialects/accent doesnt mean it's scuffed, just like american english isnt scuffed even if it sounds very different from UK
@@ardellandaya1965 Thats kinda like saying you don't understand uk English (let's say your from the usa or canada)
@DeathNikki I don't know if you're talking about the original comment or my reply, but the goal of my original comment was saying that people that don't speak French at all are judging the Quebec accent. If you're talking about my second comment, then that still doesn't make sense, because I can just switch the scenario and my point would be even more valid.
French is like the third most spoken language in America and is still widely spoken in states like Louisiana and even Ohio. But if we are being real, if Canadas primary language other than English is French, America's is Spanish. Especially in the south and south west.
When Poki called english people stupid, you can easily separate the chat members who understand french and ones who don't based on their reactions lmao
I speak French and I am not even native English speaker but I still think it's arrogant
It's just a reality.

@@ok._.gubruh quick PepeLaugh
@@ok._.gubruh The auto translation of UA-cam actually helps you understand it. It's not perfect, but I got the general context of what they were saying.
@@itsjjp_ It really does. They talked about many things. Some of those were how his French is rather basic as he stopped using it when he left home. Also Pokimane has a theory that Xqc speaks english fast because he learned french first and that's how they talk. Xqc added that in the french from quebec, they tend to mash words together, something he continues to do while speaking English sometimes.
Of course this is my interpretation from the subtitles as they are not perfect, as I stated previously.
Same
Because they are speaking Canadian French, not real French that they speak ion France.
"mon français is vraiment scuffed" YEAH NO SHIT
its not that scuffed

Just wanna say big up the French people in the comments, it’s nice seeing an in depth conversation about the language as someone with little experience with it!
Bah merci Big up à toi aussi
he's speaking so much slower in french, i love the fact how he needs to think first and not just spit out the words
I'm from Quebec and this clip is just amazing to listen to
Ahh I’ve been waiting for this french interaction.
I just love the chat the entire time
Damn this is actually good content. I wish they would do more of these, kinda getting bored of english talk these days
cant understand shit but ill listen to it all day
" her french is better tbh "
" so bad omegalul "
" scuffed french "
say people who don't speak French , and only know english .
I mean his French is scuffed. He literally said it himself. “Mon français vraiment scuffed”. My French is really scuffed. And it’s true. Québécois French is harder to understand for French people in france because Quebec French mashes words together and also mixes in a little English. Morocco, a previous French colony had learned French the more traditional way. Poki sounds like an A-student in French- she’s slower, but is saying the words more or less correctly. Felix is faster, mispronouncing some words and mashing them together.
@why stay I mean there are stats under the streams to know where the majority of the audience is watching from..
Suddenly I'm not Asian anymore. Thanks
i think people who says scuffed french probably are french. Like french french, not quebec french
Xqc's french is better, at least in this clip
i'm french and they both speaks really good tbh, even the accent is rly great
Hein?
I'm from Montreal and I loved this exchange 😂 just seeing chat confused makes me feel blessed knowing what they're saying
j'aime bien quand xQc parle en français, ça le rend plus raffiné je trouve
Holy shit that was a long one ! Xqc french is not that scuffed at all. Sometimes it felt like he forgot how to speak but in here it was very good also poki
I think he pretty much always has to hold back his accent because if you speak 100% québécois accent even french speakers outside Québec are gonna have a hard time understanding you.
@@darrenfleming7901 that’s not true lol
spoken in true scuffed quebecois french ❤️
scuffed and proud

Dude I’m from Quebec and I didn’t know they were there holy shit this is amazing 💥
Both grew up in Quebec as well which is nice!
Her French is so well enunciated and slow paced, I actually get 80%. X, tho? Fugeddaboudit
underrated comment
Her french is too slow, she is talking like a teacher explaining maths to 12 yo students. X's french sounds natural.
@@marcinjankowski4432 as a native speaker, that is correct. nothing wrong with that of course, but poki's french is slow paced
Xqc saying "wesh" is so funny to hear
Poki’s French is more understandable. Speaks slower but can pronounce words better. X is a little more scuffed, but you can definitely understand it. One sounds like somebody who learned it in school. (Poki, from Morocco, Arabic is their official language but she learned French in school and also speaks French to her parents) You could assume her French accent became less discernable after moving and no longer needing to speak French. Her accent is less of a native speaker and more of an American student learning French, after all those years of developing an American accent. X definitely sounds like a québécois lol.
Best post yet. As a Quebecois this is accurate. Poki learned in school, XQC naturally at home + friends, etc.
Morocco's official languages are Berber and Arabic, she's probably from a richer family so francophone
She definitely has a canadian accent
Listening to this was the only time when I actually had to use the French I learnt in school
That was definitely hard to track, but I understood like 3/4ths of what they said. Towards the end, it started to get a bit iffy for me though lol.
Somehow I got used to Canadian French by hearing xqc speak in French every now and then. It used to be so weird and confusing

I actually find felix's and pokis french very easy to understand since they are speaking slow and clear when it comes to french.
That’s shameful man, you should speak your language. Fighting assimilation is an individual task, not just a governmental one.
@@skinnylong2023 dude what?
I agree, their french is very clear and articulate! I've been studying french for 5 years now but my listening comprehension still isn't the best (english is my first language). Despite that, I was able to understand everything they said.
@@skinnylong2023 It's not their fault they didn't retain their language and 'fight assimilation' what💀
@@jojo-dh7sl No, but it is in their power to start speaking it again. French has died in quite a few places across North America due to pressure from government, discrimination, displacement, etc, and there isn’t a government to actively protect it in many areas. Keeping French alive requires actively learning, and encouraging use, or you’re complicit in turning your region into a new Louisiana, sadly. It’s no one’s fault individually that it’s dying, but it’s shameful and up to us to fix through individual learning, and political action.
i loved hearing this, i’m from quebec, and i understood both of them perfectly, despite the fact that i’m english

Native Quebec french speaker here! XQC is a bit rusty but definitely still has his quebec accent, he was saying that his french was a little "scuffed" while Poki's accent resembles France or Belguim accent. Quebecois people have a reputation of merging multiple words into a few syllables, for example, "À ce temps si," (Nowadays) becomes "Astensii" because they talk so fast.. He might also be a lil self conscious about his french too, but I think its great!
There's like a second where she sounds Quebecer when she says ''c'est comme ci'' real fast. You can tell that part came naturally because she probably used it a lot when she was in Quebec.
That was incredibly impressive

sometimes i feel bad that i speak three languages, yet i havent done anything with my life yet!
its like having a great potential that you never use!
its french arabic english in case you r wondering
no one was wondering
I was wondering.
im not sure about this but i think she's so good at french because morocco was a french colony and the language is probably still taught in school or is still part of their history and culture
You are correct, the vast majority of people in Morocco and Algeria can speak good french as a second language, and a bunch of other countries in Africa have the same phenomenon, because they were all formerly french colonies. Interestingly, there's also quite a few people in Vietnam, especially the older generations, who speak it because that was also a former colony.
well the reason is mostly cause she grew up in quebec too
DAMN THEY ARE GOOD !!! Bravo !❤
Pokimane sounds like the automated air canada french seatbelt instructions.
as someone who speak French from québec, its fucking hilarious and wierd at the same time

For people who did not understand what they talked about, it was about the differences between the French way of speaking french and the Quebecer (sorry if it does not exist in English) way of speaking french and why they talk french the way they do and how it reflects on xQc way of speaking english. Anyway, it always feels weird to hear people speaking your native language when you are used to hear them speaking English.
as someone who learns french in england i can definitely understand pokimane better. xqc speaks french like he speaks english it’s so hard to understand
This is so funny. He has a hard time speaking english (when's agitated) and it seems he has a hard time with french too.
This is so true at times being bilingual/multilingual. I speak English, Filipino and French and there are times I mispronounce English words, forget French words, or only remember certain Filipino words. Often times I just codeswitch(just switching languages mid sentences) cause it's easier for my brain lol

I really love to see streamers speaking in their native language once in a while (edit poki's first lang isn't french) (edit 2 maybe her first lang is french idk)
Is Pokimane French as well ??, I thought she is Moroccan, I mean the Moroccan dialect of Arabic has a lot of French words in it I think
not poki thou french is second english is third while araboic is here natvve language
but here french and arabic got way more scuffed with years of living in Canada and pretty much not using it
she has said multiple time that french was her first language so she prob learned french and arabic at the same time
@@AdolfHitler-ki2ej pokimane is Moroccan. Their official language is Arabic, but being a previous French colony meant that some of them know French.
