    • @sakitoby1581

      It's a bit of a balance, I'd say. It depends how commonly appropriated the word has become. I don't leave off the S in Paris when I say it in America. But if I'm in France or speaking to a francophile, of course I would not pronounce the S at the end of Paris and would pronounce the entire word a bit differently. In America it's basically "PERRIS." In France it's basically "PAH-RI". It helps to be able to switch back and forth to avoid seeming pretentious. But really, no one should be shamed for speaking WELL! That's just wrong. I wish everyone would just communicate as best they can, in a respectful and friendly way. We'd all be happier that way and could have fun conversations...

    I think what messes English speakers up is there are so many words in English borrowed from French and mispronounced. It's like we have to unlearn English pronunciation while we learn French. This video was defintely a workout for me.

      there is also a heavy Germanic influence as well the two languages have very different sounds, marrying all of the sounds to play together is what makes English one of the hardest languages to learn. I noticed as well that some of the sounds that French language makes, sounds like speech impediment in English.

    • @karendixon401

      I've never taken French but one clue someone told me is that they don't like saying the last part of a word with strong letter sounds.. it is uncouth sounding to them.. what we Americans don't like about some speech in our country.. those who add a twang sound to their words and combining words like.. "all of you" please listen.. shortened to "Y'all" hear.. Not intelligent sounding.

    I haven’t taken French since 1977 in high school. I was in French II and our class went to London, Paris, Normandy and other places in France. I was 15 and in 10th grade, a sophomore in high school. I do wish I kept going. I love the French culture, country, food, and yes, these desserts!! I have WONDERFUL memories of our trip. One of my oldest friends (the friendship is old not the two of us! 😉) was with me on that trip. She was a grade ahead of me. We still talk about that trip and the beauty of France.

      Perhaps, it is the only French word I like to listen to----any other word with R sound "ghey-ghey"---which French is fraught with---I abhore the most....ha, ha.

    0:56 In Québec, we pronounce "un" and "raisin" differently. For some reason, in France both sounds merged into the same one over time. The same way they pronounce "patte" (leg) the same as "pâte" (pasta). In Québec, there is also a clear difference in pronounciation. In France, you can't tell the difference and you have to guess from the context of the sentence.

    Actually saying ‘mille feuille’ is so easy to Turkish speakers! Cause we have an ‘ö’ sound which it’s corresponding to the ‘eui’ sound exactly!

    I studied French in high school until we had an exchange student from France who said that foreigners can never master the /r/ and they will always sound foreign to French people. So, I became discouraged.

    • @Street_French
      @Street_French  4 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      ow yeah it's definitely hard but it doesn't matter that much :) don't feel discouraged :))

    • @Tina06019
      @Tina06019 4 ปีที่แล้ว +6

      Of course we will sound foreign. The exchange student probably spoke English with an accent, but I’ll bet you understood them.
      Ça ne faire rien!
      It does not matter unless you are trying to pass yourself off as a native speaker.
      My sister did the « EU test » in French and her level is « college-educated native speaker ». She needs this level of proficiency for her work. I, on the other hand, can only get around town, shop, and make small talk in French. I still love the language.

    • @ladysavannah8365
      @ladysavannah8365 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I managed to fool a French person into thinking I was Belgian - still a native speaker just a different accent. It's doable!
      Plus, what does it matter if you sound foreign? At least you can make yourself understood!

    We adore French foods here! French has contributed so heavily to our English, but much of the pronunciation changed, of course. Although we know words are not pronounced the same, it is difficult to remember just how to change them back (croissant, tart, eclair, beniet, etc are all English spellings).

    Just got back from France. I don’t speak French but I do work in the world of opera so I have to deal with French pronunciation quite often, which I try to get as close to correct as I can...
    Anyway, my favorite pastry from this trip was frangipane. I probably wasn’t pronouncing it exactly right but most people seemed to understand what I wanted right away. I tried the frangipane everywhere we went! So delicious.

    for someone who speaks filipino, english, and spanish, french pronounciation is really hard.. it's so hard to produce the sounds, not only the letter r but also the vowels that are nasal.. i really wanna learn french and at 31 i hope it's not too late..

    • @Street_French
      @Street_French  5 ปีที่แล้ว +24

      @user-sb7br1tk1r 5 ปีที่แล้ว +7

      subukan mo muna spanish.. mas madali.. ang dami cognates at kuha na natin agad ang pronounciation.. 1 year ko lang pinag-aralan ang spanish.. at halos lahat ng mga spanish youtubers naiitindihan ko, maliban lang kung sobrang bilis, dahil ang bilis magsalita ng mga spanish speakers.. sa pagsasalita naman mabagal lang ako pero kaya ko na makipag communicate.. trust me ang dali lang ng spanish.. after spanish, siguro pwede na french.. stepping stone, tutal marami ka madadalang grammar rules ng spanish papuntang french dahil pareho naman silang romance languages..
      suggestion ko lang iyon.. ikaw pa rin, kung gusto mo agad french, wala problema.. sayang lang ang opportunity to learn a third language immediately.. kung nag 1 year ako sa spanish, feeling ko sa french matatagalan ako.. ang hirap ng pronounciation nila.. pero ang dami ko agad nagets na grammar sa french dahil sa spanish..

    • @monnpelagio
      @monnpelagio 5 ปีที่แล้ว

      La paz Mundial oh yes yes very gracious of you to give a suggestion. I mean, it's not that I'm against learning Spanish but like gusto ko munang i-try yung French?? I know na madaming cognates ang Filipino and Spanish due to hiram and colonisation but ang dami rin kasing cognates ng French and English- Norman Conquest, and globalisation I mean. And pagkatapos ng French, baka Italian and then Spanish. There's just so many options and it's nice to know that you have all of these. After some time parang namamaster ko na rin yung gluturral (?) 'r' sound sa French pero yes learning languages is so good and satisfying haha

    • @user-sb7br1tk1r
      @user-sb7br1tk1r 5 ปีที่แล้ว +5

      sinabi mo.. it's very fulfilling especially when you start to see the results.. imagine i only used to visit english and filipino channels but now another world has opened itself to me because i have learned their language.. good luck sa pag-aaral ng languages.. it's so fun to be a language enthusiast..

I bought a book for learning French 6 years ago but could not read the words with proper accents so the book has been sleeping on my shelf since then. Today your video made my dormant wish to rise again. I am native Bengali and the French accents are really tough for me but I hope I'll learn that one day.

    I am from the south of France and actually we differentiate the sound IN from the sound UN. In most France these are pronounced similarly as a nasal "è". In the south of France we have a nasal "é" for IN and a nasal "euh" for UN.

      Guten morgen,
      the same is true for me. I have had a French course back in 1987, but I found it too odd to learn, though qualified that course.
      Later on I joined a German course, and found that a pure and standard language, but alas could not complete that course, which I regret the most, while Russian and Polish (both Slavic languages) are Rubbish only.
      Now, I intend to learn Spanish and Italian, but feel short of time for that purpose, while No to French or Russian/ Polish, still exists.... Lol!
