      She's widely exagerating though, I've never heard a french person in my life that say "difficult" with that u sound she made, we may suck but we still learn english from a young age so that kind of words even kids pronounce it correctly (except the accent). I don't think there's a major difference between the Wallonia and France in terms of English fluency.

    Emanuel is right saying french are embarrassed by their accent but i think it's mostly due to school teaching. Teachers tend to be really harsh when it comes to pronunciation, and they are right to be but it kinda sticks. So when we talk there is the specter of our secondary school teacher saying "WRONG 😠". We often know our pronunciation is not right but we can't help it and it's hard to make habits go away😅
    Once you are adult/long time speaker i think it's fine to embrace what's left of your accent, at a certain point you are not going to make it go away anyway, as long as people get you it's ok

    As a Frenchman I really enjoyed this video and the slight differences between the 3 ladies. But I'm not sure they're representative of French accents because their English is too good. When I hear French people speak English (for example at work or abroad), most of the time they have a very strong and almost caricatural French accent, as Lucie managed to make it. But after all, maybe it's what native English speakers appreciate !

    I'm personally more impressed by an English learner's sentence structure and ability to speak in casual English, more than I am worried about their accents. Frankly, I LOVE to listen to English spoken in a variety of accents.
    As for French Canadians, I would fully expect their English to be influenced by North American English. There are many more similarities between standard American and Canadian English than there are differences.

    I'm a bit shocked at how well the Belgian woman spoke English, she largely spoke it with an American accent rather than with a largely Walloon accent.
    I wonder if she lived in America or English Canada for a while, or maybe she's just really good at accents, or maybe Belgians in general are just really good at accents for some reason?

      The way they speak english is not necessarily representative of the way people speak english in their native country.

    French people typically pronounce the English word "difficult" as "dee-fee-kult." The "di" sound is pronounced like the French letter "d," the "ff" sound is similar to the French "f," and the "cult" part is pronounced with a short "u" sound, similar to the French "u" in words like "du" or "tu." However, it's important to keep in mind that individual accents and regional variations may lead to slight differences in pronunciation.

      @@jeanbolduc5818 French kids learn how to speak English in primary or middle school, they learn how to pronounce words with their teachers. Frenchs know that “I” is pronounced “ai” in English, so pronouncing every letter is a stereotype. Of course there is an accent (like so many other English speakers that are not native speakers), for instance “ze” instead of “the” for some people. But as I said, pronouncing every single letter is a stereotype and this is only applied to people who never learned English in their life, which is rare considering the actual school system in France.

      British people, whether they wanted it or not, were forced to accept other cultures living in pockets, close to the big cities, even though the living standard would be worse in those areas, it was stiill dramatic improvement to where theey have been living before, In other countries, e.g. "the Windrush generation" after the Second World War, to rebuild the Bombed/wrecked nation after the war. France was virtually intact after the war, having been occupied, so "even though" they had some immigration, it was nowhere near as much and when it did happen, the rules were much more strict about how other cultures could integrate withiin the French living spaces.
      Ultimately, the ethnic peoples allowed to Emigrate to the UK, suffered a lot of racism in The 1950-1970s, but effectively It has led to more understanding between groups and now the UK is the least racist place to live, as proven by the British people never electing the extreme member of Parliament, to Westminster, in any constituency in the country, whereas that happens regularly in France throughout the last 70 years. There are many negatives to multiculturalism, e.g. pockets of communities where nobody speaks English and a lot of crime associated with exploitation of Anglo-Saxon Brits as well as exploitation of tthe ethnicc peoples, because even though there is more understanding, that doesn't mean everywhere. I'm just saying that for the general public. It has meant more lenient towards the Commonwealth countries, than the French show towards theirs

    Being French myself, it's always interesting and cool to hear that we have a pleasant accent or that they don't mind it because, generally (it's not every french people that think like that but it's quite common here), we tend to be insecure about our accent. In fact, it's much worse than that: we laugh when people from abroad say that our accent is sexy 😂 and I mean by that the English spoken "with zero effort given", with simply a typical way of speaking, like "iz zat a bread..euh.. zat I see in ze oven ?". Some people don't care about that and can speak a solid good english with this strong french accent, some others can seem to be native English speakers and there are lof of people in between with a "casual" English like Lucie, for example, which could represent 90 % of the speakers actually, in my mind (with the common english "r" sound we learned at school with some recognizable hints of French).
