What are the sterotypes you've heard about French people in your country? We're here to discuss it in the comments section ! 😁
C'est la première fois que j'écoute le cliché sur la mauvaise hygiène de vie ! Très intéressant ! hahah
Un cliché que je connais c'est que les français parlent l'anglais mal ou ne savent pas parler l'anglais du tout.
@@andreu2365 Vraiment? Pourtant, on l'entend vraiment beaucoup! Mais tu as dû remarquer en nous côtoyant que c'était pas vrai (enfin on espère 😉 😆)
@@evenwerk Oui, effectivement, on entend ça souvent aussi! Et c'est vrai que globalement, en France, on ne parle pas aussi bien anglais que dans d'autres pays d'Europe.
@@EasyFrench Oui, je peux constater que c'est pas vrai! 👌
5:22 "not really, do you see anybody here with a beret?" A second after, they interview someone with a beret 😂😂😂
;)
I like berets I wish people would wear them more often.
In Paris a lot of people don't wear berets or marinière
But not a man though. The béret stereotype comes from old Frenchmen wearing bérets, 50 or 100 years ago. It doesn't come from fashion style bérets for girls in 2020.
That's the power of video edition.
Scarves. The French love their scarves.
Haha that's kind of true ;) But in winter, it's important not to get a cold!! ;)
How many scarves did you see in this video?
They also tend to wear their pullovers over their shoulders ^^
@@Mokkamalia Only conservatives in their mid 30s.
@@JustinCase99999 ^^
The cut after the segment at 5:22 is pure gold ^^
Hah we found it quite funny too 😁
what happened there?
@@White-sw9pe the girl with red hair said that there was no one walking around with béret,, and yet the next girl wore béret. 😂
@@evanraymond8728 True, but it's only a fashion thing, since the beret cliche is only about men. And beside few very old men in the countryside, no one wears berets in France anymore.
je suis italien, je pense que le stereotype que le français sont ''rude'' c'est false. Quand j'étais en Erasmus j'avais beacoup d'amies français et je pense que nous (Italiens et français), avons traditions et style de vie très similaires. Je suis été aussi beaucoup de fois en France pour me vacances especialment pendant ma enfance!! La France on a était et c'est une nation important pour moi! (Pardonne-moi pour mon français)
Tu apprends français par IGCSE?
Ton Français est top et on entend ton merveilleux accent à travers lui.
@@kanchanraj2904Ça c’est en Angleterre
"Ils sont romantiques et ils puent". That is perfect over-compensation.
on pue le romantisme
France seems like a lovely and relaxing place to live in. It seems so happy. I'm learning french 3 and when I speak fluently I will literally move to France.
05:39 "We don't stink, it's only the subway that causes this impression".
That was the best one.
I’m Canadian and went to Paris a few years ago. My dream come true. I would like to live there beside the Eiffel Tower. The people were polite. No one was rude. I was surprised it was quite easy to get by in English. My French is very limited. The food is great. A really beautiful city. But btw I’m from Toronto and we have a reputation for being rude and unfriendly so maybe I like that style
Or maybe the unfriendliness stereotype is wrong in both Toronto and Paris 🤔😁 It's nice to read your positive impression on Paris!
@@EasyFrench Do French people think Americans are super nice? I live in San Francisco and most people are rude 😂 Maybe it's the cloudy weather all year haha
@@zachary8224 It's not easy to speak for French people in general, but yes, we could say that generally Americans have the reputation to be rather friendly and specially enthusiastic :)
Easy French really wow! people here are quite rude haha :)
James Lade , come back to Paris we are niiice ^^
Seriously you have a lot of beautiful cities in France not only Paris :)
ok but the girl with the red/orange hair has such a beautiful voice
3:17 attention 27% au lieu de 35% ! Tout est dans la précision des chiffres 😂
Hahaha !
C'est très français de chipoter sur ce genre de chose 😂
C'était une bonne blague !
Ok, I am french but I am currently living in London for about 4 years now. It is true that there are a lot of clichés about french people and the fact of being outside my homeland make me realised that most of them are true. This is mainly due to cultural differences rather than real flaws meaning that according to someone standards, the other will act differently and in a weird way but the other will think the completely opposite about you. For instance, it is true, us french people, we are protesting A LOT and moaning a lot as well but in turn, me as french in London, I will say that English people don't express themselves and prefer to hide everything down when something is not right... this is a matter of point of view. The fact of moaning and protesting a lot is just a consequence of being more direct. This may also explain why we are identified as rude as well.
Thanks for sharing with us your point of view! It's true that living abroad really helpps to have more of a distant perspective towards one's own cultural and social habits.
Loïc Rolas better than being hypocrite
Loïc Rolas can you say if it is true that french don’t shower often or not and why??? I have known strong smelly ones.
@@amandaconstanza what do you mean by "that often"? I am taking showers every day. I am not sure you know enough French people to draw any conclusion. Especially because French people are so diverse (as in every nationalities) that I am not sure they can be reduced down to a population that does not shower. This is a matter of education, not nationality.
Loïc Rolas it can be a cultural thing and that is why i am asking, not attacking you 🙄🙄🙄🙄 I have known like 20 in my life, been there twice, my ex boyfriend is french, etc. And yes, i know there is people that showers everyday but I have known three aprox that always smell and my friends found very weird that coincidence. I am really just asking if there is a reason. ps i didn’t said that you specially don’t shower hahahaha. ps2: in my country think that stuff about every european not just french people haha.
I visited Paris (and other French cities) three times in my life and I smell nobody's terrible stinky in my sightseeings (and I took a lot of subways around the city). I visited Vienna (beautiful, by the way) and THERE I smell people very stinky on the subway (It was terrible). I'm from a tropical country (Brazil) and I do shower a lot (03 times a day or more).
When I went to Europe, in late autumn, the weather was mild and the temperatures are not so high, so I found it necessary to take only 02 baths a day (when I woke up and before I go to sleep), and I found myself clean. I think it’s a cultural issue associated with the climate of colder countries. I just LOOOOVE Paris too much!!! The country (France) and the people are always in my heart.............
In my experience in Paris, the stereotype was confirmed, unfortunately. The stench of many people was common in the streets and especially in the subway. In the subway, the smell was terrible.
I live in France I shower every night before bed in summer once every 2 or 3 days depending of my activities in winter. But I always wash my " culo" before going to bed.
@@towaritch Confucius say, "If you go to bed without your pajamas, you wake up with smelly fingers."
@@deanronson6331 I wear pajamas in winter and clean underwear/t-shirt in summer
@@towaritch Whoosh
I studied Spanish at first, and then I switched to studying French because the Spanish speak so fast that after practicing and practicing, I just can’t hear individual words, and I enjoy the sound of French more and the Spanish. I’m glad I switched to French because after just a couple months, I can actually understand a good portion of what people are saying in French, and it just comes more natural to me in general. I also find myself more able to think in French after just a couple months than I was in Spanish after years. I still don’t speak it too well, but contrary to popular belief, I find French so much more enjoyable and so much easier than Spanish. It actually gives me more motivation to keep going I actually feel like I’m finally going to achieve bilingualism!
We wish you could luck to achieve this goal! You were definitely right to switch to French if the language is more appealing to you. Choosing a language to learn is very much a matter of feeling 😊
Congratulations!! 🎉❤
hello there! I am from Romania and I was thinking the exact opposite lol. I have been learning French on my own for like almost 6 months now and I find it very difficult to understand spoken French. Bc they are like "lololo.... lo...bah.... lolololololololololo" and for me, a romanian that pronounces all the letters in a word I find it very difficult to understand when you cut so much from a word that what you got left is 2 consonants :)) Maybe I will try to learn Spanish then :))
Now I want to learn French to get an additional personality! I feel like i’d be very humorous in the French language lol
We smell you Pierre Desproges
We've been to Paris three times and encountered nice people who have stopped to help us. As for the baguettes, cheese, and wine, I couldn't get enough!
I made my own analyse about the reputed "french rudeness". I think it's a mostly american feeling taking roots in the cultural differences of mentality : America has a deep culture of optimism, positivity and motivation mindset. Its common to talk to anybody you want to talk to on public spaces, markets or whatever. If you seek help to somebody, he will cheerfully act like you're in a friendship, living you a phone number even though he may often don't give a damn about you and never call you back later on. Friendliness is a natural social code in america even though it may be fake, and every interaction shall be positive.
France on the other hand does not have such a culture of interaction. It is almost rude to stop someone in the street to chat about something because people have things to do and must not be disturbed. If you actually need something, french indeed have a politeness etiquette which enable to friendly ask for something, but if you step outside of it "Bonjour" + "excusez moi de vous déranger.." you'll not receive a nice greeting. Things tourist don't know about most of the time.
To be simple, americans put loads of vaseline on their exchanges.
It's very interesting to read yur opinion about that, thanks for sharing! It indeed echoes other feebacks about social interactions in France we have heard from other Americans.
haha America must be a nightmare country for an introvert..I hate small talks with strangers..But I get the benefit of your friendliness culture.
@@unpopulardollsdontreadrepl8453 Although america must be sweetier as a tourist, meeting people and making friends it can also been tiring I guess. People don't bother with those they don't have to in France
Les français ont du mal à faire le premier pas mais si on leur parle, ils seront ravis d'échanger.
Roman wild is not true
I live in Tunisia and i learned one very important thing in my life during my studies in France : freedom is not a conquered land.
How can’t you love French with this sense of humour?
Who uses 27% in the conversation?
When I went to France, the people I stayed w and their friends and their families just took military showers or washed specific parts of their body. Also the parisians I met were very nice, one lady even helped me put on a beret correctly
Au Brésil, ce que j'ai déjà écouté en concernant les Français c'est que l'on dit beaucoup que les Français ils se douchent pas souvent, et que c'est à cause de ça que vous avez les meilleurs parfums (pour "cacher" l'odeur) ! L'on dit aussi que vous êtes râleurs, grossiers, que vous aimez trop les vins et les fromages, etc, et que vous savez revendiquer vos droits ! Moi par contre je ne suis pas d'accord avec tous ces clichés, j'ai déjà rencontré des Français très agréables et qui sont hygiéniques hahaha! Vive la France et les Français !
Merci Arian pour ce commentaire très détaillé! Et écrit dans un français parfait, bravo! 👌
@@EasyFrench Merci beaucoup, c'est trop gentil 😄
Franchement, on a du mal à croire que vous n'êtes pas français en vous lisant. Franchement félicitations. À part en lisant : "L'on dit que...". Ce n'est pas une faute. C'est juste que c'est un langage tellement soutenu que personne ne le dit jamais. Même un homme politique, je n'en ai jamais entendu parler de cette manière là.
Je pense que 100% des clichés sont vrais sauf celui qu'on se lave pas et celui la il date du moyen age et il a perdurer one sait trop comment
@@octa7557 Je savais ça mais comment expliquer que des brésiliens qui était aussi catholique ait ce cliché sur nous
Haven't been to Paris for more than a decade, but been to France three times. The French are charming and helpful in my experience and speaking a bit of French helps a lot.
That's such a nice comment to read! Thank you 😍
Absolutely, I dust off my high school French to make sure I have basic polite and survival sentences. It really makes a difference.
Merci pour ce bon épisode! J’apprends tellement!
I ADORE this channel... it really makes me laugh, I love seeing how the French respond to questions in the street. Viva la France! Merci beaucoup...

Having watched quite a few of your videos, this is definitely one of the best.
I like it when the girl in 2:41 was trying to convey that the french are polite and then came up with the "des trucs à la con".
yeah but in france, telling bad words and being straightforward is not really considered as being "not polite" ^^
My grand-mother was swearing all day long but one day, she told me: "honey, I may be gross but I'm not vulgar" :-p Loved it !
An stereotype is that they don't like when foreigners talk in English or talk in an imperfect French
laurananiis rb infortunately, that is kind of true than many French people habeevery high standards towards their own language, and are not always patient with people trying to speak French... But not everyone in France, fortunately!
Easy French J’ai entendu parlé que la plupart des francaises qui ont mauvaise attitude vers les apprenants qui parlent pas bien francais est les parisiens, et pas tellement eux des autres regions en France. Est-ce que c’est vrai ?
@@cornfetishhh3305 well, I find French are quite weird regarding this matter cause when they're abroad and someone wants to speak French to them they use English but when they're in France they don't like people speak to them in English so wtf! And then you use your B1 French level to avoid hate but since they're so perfectionists they start talking to you in English again... and it's so weird because when they're learning a new language they ask for patience and people even help them but when is the opposite situation French don't have the same patience they were asking for.
laurananiis rb i ´m french and i never heard of that
What is funny though is that most of French people don't speak proper English or any other foreign language.
i love frenchies,,, you guy are so funnies and open mind, i also love your class i finally start to understand you guys ... Thanks for your videos... des bâre, des fromages, du vine blanc, le baguette de pain , en marinière oui oui j'aime el amour tout `ca
1:28 the way she said “ Cest-á-dire “ 😍😍😍😍😍😍
Marshan122 c'est-à-dire
J'habite à Paris les parisiens sont tres gentils. ils se lavent. Ils ne sont pas égoïstes. J'aime cette ville et j'aime trop ces gens
Entièrement d'accord, les parisiens sont grognons (parfois) mais foncièrement gentils !
Aaaah enfin un commentaire sympas sur les parisiens
@@judithbenzadon4808 ce n est Pas Mon experience et j ai vecu Les 3/4 de ma vie a Paris et banlieue (plutot residentielle).

Man i just came across this video, and ive been trying to look for french shows or something of the like. Such like in netflix but it was difficult to try to find something interesting. This is the 1st video ive seen that really interest me and it helps to have the french captions and the translation in english. plus the video/topics are interesting im definitely subscribing and watch all of the episodes, this will help up my french game i found it easy to follow and could understand some words i already knew and it doesnt feel like im studying and instead just watching a video thats really enjoyable.
Smashingcans1 Nous en sommes ravies 🤗🙏🏼
It's awesome how sincere and straightforward 5:06 girl is

You guys talk too fast lol. I only know Spanish and English, but went to France and somehow navigated all by myself, and did everything I wanted. Kind of proud of my instinct. Can’t wait to visit again 💜 Saludos desde Los Angeles
French stereotypes:
•eat a lot of croissants
•have tiny portions of food
•women’s fashion/makeup goal is to look “effortless” but polished (I.e. messy bun, minimal makeup, red lipstick but no lip liner)
•French people commonly have extramarital affairs & it’s not a taboo
•French women have hairy armpits
•French men have squiggly mustaches
•French ppl look down on Americans
•French are very blunt & don’t sugarcoat
•French always dress great
Generally, I can say as an American, we think pretty highly of France ❤️ 😎
I am Brazilian and there are also many stereotypes about us. For example, they think we live in the middle of the Amazon or in Rio de Janeiro (funny fact, I never went to these two places), or that we just party all year long, walk around in our bikinis and drink caipirinha. I don't even need to talk about how uncomfortable this stereotype is...
> French people commonly have extramarital affairs & it’s not a taboo
Yeah that one is false lmao
The rest of them are pretty correct I think, or at least they have some truth to them.
Still, I think most girls shave their armpits, and plenty of people don't care how they dress, however a lot of french girls will do their makeup and pick a good outfit even if it's just to go do the groceries for example...
@@catherineribeiro917adoro caipirinha mas faz tempo que não tomo. Kct
My company had a branch office in Paris I worked with French people a lot for ten years. Also I was exposed quite a bit in the head office. From my American perspectives, I'm kind of get where those cliches coming from. From my Russian perspectives, I adore you. And some of you , not all, do like to complain. Also I'd like to say, EasyFrench is super adorable especially in her blue beret.
Cet épisode a été génial! Tout le monde que vous avez trouvé avait bien envie de parler de ce sujet.
7:33 Trop mignonne sa petite apologie de son peuple.

De riiiiien et merci 🤗
Having people say the same thing in different ways was really helpful
Merci beaucoup pour le nouvel épisode! 💙💙 Saludos desde México🇲🇽
Des bisous de Paris 🤩
Thanks U for your lovely helpful in France class 👍
En Russie on dit que les hommes français sont très romantiques et qu’ils portent les écharpes)) les écharpes oui je pense, et quant à leur romantisme 🤔il me semble que c’est juste un façon de vie à la française « la vie est belle », d’ essayer de trouver le bonheur dans les petits choses et gestes etc
*THEY SMOKE A LOT!!!!*
that's completely true
We do 😂
And that is unironically based
I´m from Germany. Out of all the Country's that share borders with us, France is definitely the one we have the most stereotypes about. At least that's what im experiencing.
So here they are:
°French people eat a lot of cheese, baguettes and croissants
°They eat weird things like frog legs and snails
°They love wine, especially the red ones
°French people are arrogant
°French men are a bit greasy
°French women are beautiful, but hard to handle
°French people dislikes German people
°French people smoke a lot
°French people rarely know foreign languages
°People from Paris are way too aggressive and rude (There aren't any other stereotypes for specific cities in France besides Paris, as far as I know)
° French people are good lovers (at least in the sheets)
Then there are the jokes about Elsass-Lothringen and other things out of our shared past.
Personally, I've been to France a few times, since I live close to the borders and what shall I say. A lot of the stereotypes were represented in a lot of the people from Paris (sorry folks), but in the end it all comes down to the individual. I love the French countryside, I love French wine (Champagner tastes like shit tough) and cheese, I love the blundness and I love a French woman.
P.S.: Our bread is way superior.
Ach ... Der Deutsche und sein permanente ubermacht komplex es ist uns egal wer mache das beste brot Pufff
We French don't actually hate the Germans at all. I've actually never heard French people speak ill of Germans nor Brits actually. I can't think of a country that the French dislike as a whole.
French men are not greasy, they’re greasy and smelly, and also stupid.
Well, I have been to France many times and I must say that the baguette things is true. and I love it.
J'adore leur autodérision!
Je suis Américain et pour moi je toujours ai écouté que les français ne sont pas sympa et aiment fumer trop. Mais, de mes expériences personnelles j'ai trouvé tout français que j'ai raconté très gentil.
Ça fait plaisir d'entendre que votre expérience a contredit les clichés 😊
My grandparents told me it is quite true that up until a couple of decades ago, full-body-and-hair bathing or showering were a once-weekly affair all over Europe, not just France. One would wash their face and ears in the morning, brush their teeth, and possibly wash one's feet in the evening. As most people know by now, perfume was invented centuries ago to mask the body odors of the upper crust, who hardly bathed at all. In Victorian England, those who could afford a bath tub bathed , but the poor were likely to bathe only once a year.
Agree. My grandparents had to go to a public bath, so they would not bath often for a good practical reason. Now it's because of the problem of the lack of water that people avoid taking bath in France. Baths are not really eco-friendly. Especially because French people don't bathe in the same water (I saw families bathe in the same water in England, and of course it's the norm in Japan).
I was born in the 70's raised in France and a shower once or twice a day is the norm. Maybe what you describe was true in my grandparents' days not sure.
@@juliad368 My post starts with, "My grandparents told me..." And yet, your own comment sounds like what I said in my post went into one ear and went out the other.

you can right away notice the difference of behavior with the two Southerners more lead back and funny. The girl with the bonnet hat was cool too.
grouse isn't really a word we use in english much.
I have to grouse a bit about that generalization. We use grouse fairly often. Like whinge or complain.
mmccownfavorites literally no one uses that word you’re out of your mind
@@BeauOnTheGo_DC Where are you from? in the US (and among most ESL speakers) nobody uses the word "grouse"
I had to look up the word raleur because ive never heard grouse haha
then your grasp of the English language is limited.
the interviewer is so damn adorable
You are so pretty I only see these videos because of you
In Brazil we take sometimes 2 or more baths a day in the summer, yeah, when talking about the europeans most think they don't bath, not only the french, but europeans in general as the UK ones also.
The thing is the temperature and humidity is way lower in France, so we don't need to take two bath a day. We usually take a shower in the morning and rapidly wash before bed. :)
The interviewer is gorgeous 😍 😍 😍
Mon dieu, j'aime cette chaîne
Waouw! Merci :D
Le stéréotype qui plane souvent sur les français c'est que l'on mange des cuisses de grenouilles ( frogeater), personnellement je connais des français qui y ont jamais touché de leur vie. Pour ma part ,j'ai dû en manger 3 fois dans ma vie. ( le goût ressemble à du poulet avec une texture de poisson)
J'ai adoré la vidéo !!! beaucoup de gens pensent que c'est ainsi que sont les Français, mais ils ne sont jamais allés en France, c'est-à-dire qu'ils parlent sans savoir
0:26 Man könnte fast denken, dass das Schild im Hintergrund einen zum Saufen auf dem Fahrrad auffordert 😂
Here in Germany i have never heard that French people don't shower. I'm surprised this was mentioned so often. But we do have the cliché that a typical French breakfast is just coffee and cigarette and that they smoke cigarette after cigarette all day long. Then there is the cliché that they are rude unless you talk to them in their language. And that they drive around in old run down cars but spend their money on nice food and clothes instead, while in Germany having a nice car is a priority to many people.
Haha for having lived in Germany as a French person, I can say that the difference of priorities regarding what to do with one's money surprised me too! I never thought people were driving old cars in France until I saw what kind of cars people drive in Germany haha
En France, l'ostentation est mal vue, ce sont les "racailles " qui roulent dans de grosses voitures.(ils préfèrent les voitures allemande d'ailleurs! !!!!)
@@cocorico2701 en Allemagne, l'ostentation est aussi mal vue je dirais. Mais quand on gagne bien sa vie, il n'y a pas de raison de rouler dans une Clio de 2001 😅

I laughed at this moment @2:40 where this woman almost breaks out into English and fights her brain to stop it from happening.
she was just imitating american
@@cardett75 Oui mais justement elle a failli continuer de parler en anglais, elle a failli dire "or something" puis elle revient au français en disant "des trucs dans ce délire-là".
She wanted to say "des trucs à la CON" (no subtitled) but stopped in time and said "dans ces délires-là" :)
she was about to say an insult that is why she stopped
I don't speak French, not trying to learn either but it's nice to listen to. I didn't even read the subtitles most of the video.
I just like looking at people’s outfits tbh. They all dress so well
Merci beaucoup j'ai habite a'paris je parles un peu france j'aime beaucoup les gens franch
God damn it, I've been learning french for a couple of weeks now and all I understood from your introduction (without looking at the subtitles) was "hello and welcome" reading and writing in french is quite easy but listening and speaking french is incredibly hard.
We understand, it can indeed be quite frustrating at the beginning... it will be easier once your hear is getting used to the sound of the language. Maybe try to put the video in slower speed? It helps a lot of people! You can also check our Super Easy videos, they are much easier to understand ;)
Here in London you don't hear the cliches about berets, striped t-shirts, baguettes, croissants. I think it's because we now have 140 different ethnic groups in London and it's pointless to engage in ethnic stereotypes. Also, French style is recognised as supreme, so what's wrong with striped t-shirts? I have seven. And berets are really in again. As for baguettes and croissants, everyone cheers up when a French patisserie moves into the neighbourhood. The only downside is you know you are going to put on 10 kilos that you won't be able to shift. The way you speak English is totally seductive and cute. But perhaps there is a certain tendency towards endless argument about nothing at all. I blame Voltaire and all those enlightenment types. Love your channel.
Thanks for the very detailed comment! It's nice to hear that our UK neighbors like our style and food, and even our way of speaking English (of which many French people are ashamed of). And thanks for supporting us :)
haha you nailed it : pointless argument is our religion but we don't have to agree to love each other, it's more like sports it's a game "joute verbale".
Hey salut! Piece of French Subscriber here too 😋
Londonians know what's up. Also striped t-shirts totally rock !
1:11 Par un moment j'ai pensé que j'avais mis le x1'5 xD
Le mec a 0:23 est très sympa☺️❤️
I have been twice in less than a year to Paris and besides they always think I am French ( until my terrible accent tells them I am foreigner 😹 ), I have found people in Paris very nice and despite what others say, friendly.
I don’t like staring at people or talking to strangers and I am very respectful to others and that’s pretty much the same way with French people.
Maybe I have been very lucky but I adore Paris and it’s people!
Viva la France toujours!
Thank you, this is such a nice comment! It makes us really happy to hear that foreigners enjoyed their time France and the contact to local people :)
Merciii David :) 👍
Charlotte Cherasse de rien!😸
Tu es italien?
En France on adore les italiens !!!!
@@cocorico2701 no je suis costarricien. Mes ancêtres etaient italiens, français, espagnols et anglais. Je suis un melange!
The first time I was in Paris (years ago) a waiter mocked me and made me order in French and corrected my pronunciation. I found it was actually pretty funny. The last time I was in Paris, I ordered and spoke in French and they didn't even switch to English and were quite friendly about it.
That can be seen as rude, though. I don't expect people to know my language when visiting my country.
je parle deja la langue francais mais j'apprend encore leur culture et easy french est la meillieur facon que je trouve pour faire ca

I am a foreigner, living in Parisian area... And i have to say that people with baguettes are really everywhere! Maybe you just don't understand how it is unusual in other countries to see so many guys in the morning to carry 3-4 baguettes 😂
:D
I've been living abroad for 10 years, surrounded by foreigners almost exclusively, and in my experience, there's some kind of fascination or obsession with France and the French, whether it's positive or negative. There's ALWAYS something to say about the French. No matter what, no matter how trivial it is, when it comes to the French, people want to see something more complicated in it. And they cling to their stereotypes, even if you prove them wrong XD Once I was dressed in black from head to toe and I got 'you look so French today'. Yup, being dressed in black is a French exclusivity - however you've never seen me like that before, so how is it 'so French' exactly, knowing that I'm also half Spanish? :) You have no idea how many times I tell my friends or workmates 'oh, this one too? Let me add it to the very long list of French stereotypes!' That said, we all get along so well, we come from everywhere around the world and it's amazing to share and teach each other so many things, I love it to bits.
YES I've been trying to articulate that very same thought all over the internet but foreigners don't get it. English speakers tend to have a weird sense of ownership towards France.
Charles this is because the French people and France in general have a huge role in their history , while for the French that is not the case !
@@rachelsombo9045 That may be true but dang this is so bizarre. They print endless articles in their trash medias when they're hardly ever mentioned here lmao
hubris

Je voudrais garder aussi un vidéo de cuisiner une recette française. Peut-être il ne serait pas Mal idée de faire par nous les américains. Merci beaucoup merci beaucoup!!
Gringuita Life Belle idée 🌻
man i forgot about the not showering stereotype or what not. that goes way back to when the french had really bad hygiene lol. i’ve never met someone from france but i’d best believe that they have good hygiene or the same hygiene as like for example people from america
Bonjour au Vietnam.
Merci pour nouvelle vidéo, j'adore pas mal le série "Cliché de Francais", que je trouve très utile pour apprendre votre point de vue à votre problème. Ici, au Vietnam, votre cliché est la peuple hautaine.Mais, je crois c'est pas vrai du tout. Je connais environ 4 ou 5 peuple et tous sont super gentil, sympa; un peu hautain, oui, haha; mais en général, j'aime votre langue et le francais.
Merci d'avoir partagé ça avec nous! C'est toujours intéressant pour nous de connaître le ressenti des autres peuples à notre sujet 🙂
Gostei, mas achei que ela podia falar um pouco mais devagar. Facilitaria muito!
Wow the interview talks faaaast!!
