hi
ARMy
first thing that ran through my head, this a Hannah Montana sort of scheme
that translator is savage af
+Woop Woop i have found the fandom
Helena I made is 666 likes
Actually the french girl is. She's the one who tricked the translator.
Uh huh
Hater . ...
I’m French I had to look at the subtitles because their accent was absolutely horrific! 😂😂😂
@Kyril J "I am French. Why do you think I have this OUTRAGEOUS accent?" -- Monty Python
not just the accent but the actual words .. they butchered it.
is comedy and is part of the film
Kyril J
You triggered or what? They literary butchered the language on purpose for the sake of the story. I’m a native french speaker and it was sounding almost like Latin at some point, I couldn’t understand much
Really a lot of funny 😂
I'm french and i understood 50% of what the "french" girl said, but the story is very nice great job, I really enjoyed wathcing this
If even the native speakers don't understand that "french", I'm satisfied. I already thought that it's my fault and my french is so bad.
(je viens de l'Allemagne)
Sounds like simlish
Yes, it is a very great job and a funny video.
well i think the same i dont think that their pronunciation its too bad but actually a like the video its a good and a funny history although the guy its such an idiot
I'm definitely *not* French and it all sounded waaaaaaay wrong even to me. As if a native English speaker hadn't done a very good job of learning how to speak French...
I knew 'Claire' could speak English when she said "Oh..uh..oui" at the beginning....I saw that plot twist coming
@Ariahmitchell
Same
Same
Ariah Mitchell same but now she's gonna hate that other girl i mean the translator and that boy
Oh nevermind now she knows that the translator girls crush is him
ik me too I was like just cuz she's french doesn't mean she doesn't speak english
HAHAHAH Americans trying to speak french XDDD
and its like every french exchange student is named Claire lol
Haha that's so true
My name is Clare and I'm 100 percent irish
stobbi38 I'm Canadian and my 2 language is French
Ya ikr!!

Moral of story : never use girl translator to impress another 😂😂

Hey! It might not be a good idea to use a guy translator either he might fall in love with her and steal the girl from you 😂
Moral of the story learn the language yourself! 😂
@@sabrinacooks yes and trust Him who knows all languages, and the language of our heart, John 10 amazing grace....no one can steal what belongs to Him.

@@sabrinacooks amen, and you have a nice cooking channel thank you Sabrina (: Amen
I'm French ( and I'm a jerk )
And I'm glad there are subtitles for the French sentences otherwise I wouldn't understand a single word 😅 their pronunciation is so funny tho 👌😂
Jajaja yes that´s right
well, these are Americans for you!)))))) They just don't care
Sacrebleue...
th-cam.com/video/1-rUOrKviOM/w-d-xo.html
That was nothing like French t lpronunciation. The ‘French’ girl only sounded natural at the end, which anyone could see coming, though there was a nice twist in the middle.
A person who speaks many languages is a multilinguist
A person who speaks two languages is a bilinguist
A person who speaks one language is an American
Starteller HAHAHAAA!!! Good one!
Starteller HAAA LOL
i speackone language and i am oz
or Brittish 😂
Starteller I speak two languages and I'm American so who the fuck are you to judge an entire country by a few unintelligent folks YOU'VE met. If this was a joke then it was stupid because it's not even true or funny at all.
I am an American who speaks 1+ languages and I know a whole ton of people who speak more than one language.
I couldn't even understand the French, and that's my native language😂
Yet this was very funny😂
naomsa SAME
same 😂
The accents was made them hard to understand. If it wasn't for the subtitles I wouldn't understand them.
naomsa I learn French but if goes of my head 😑
The fact that I know French makes this even more hilarious 😅
Great acting Rachel 👌🏾
It was difficult watching every time they spoke 'French' tbh 🤣
@@czas4same I speak French
😂 yes.
4:05 "I like his American accent"... yeah, but u have it too
😂🤣👍
lmao the blonde has better pronunciation than the brunette
taiwanrocks527 both of them are speaking the worst french i ever heard
taiwanrocks527 Hey girl! or should I call you... Army? 7u7
taiwanrocks527 true 😂
Kpop fans are everywere
I don't even speak French and I could tell XD
is The Translator google, by any chance?
Aurora Emiline Haha yes it most certainly is!
Oooohhhh that is tricky, tricky tricky!
BlueDog Productions unfortunately Google translate is an untrustworthy translator.
Not A Peasant you said like seven words and it still seems like some sort of tongue twister.
sylva lane oh I never realised that! Haha, thanks for pointing it out!
I wish I had a girl falling head over heels for me like Rachel 😭😭
OMG THIS WAS FILMED AT MY SCHOOL
Too bad someone with a gun has to put some extra vents on the hallways lmao
Wow, that's a very good film, congratulations.
Awesome!!
wth is that French. as a French person, I can't help but laugh.
the way they make it zoom to her eyes and set a sountrack at the back make me laugh xD
They are both pathetic but I guess that's the point ! I'm a French linguist, outrée ....
Same😂😂😂😂😂

At least this kid who owns this channel is doing something useful with his life. Better than most of the people his age. I give him two thumbs up. When this kid gets older you'll probably be working for him. Keep up the good work kid.
I knew she knew English the whole time. How did I know?
- Her accent in the beginning.
- All exchange students are required to learn the language the people around them will be speaking.
What do you mean by "her accent in the beginning"?
who cares if their French isn't the greatest? it's a cute film and it's they're trying their hardest :) wonderful film
Ashlee Wenn Thank you so much!! I really appreciate it! :)
+BlueDog Productions no problem, just telling the truth 💖😊💖
C'est pas plutôt chienne?
Ashlee Wenn I liked it too
leur accent est vraiment nul mais j'ai bien aimé ^^'
The blond girl is hilarious I love her acting. So good
Yeah pretty good
hate her role but she's a good actress :D
1
Kat Brennan she goes to my school gets all the lead roles
Kat Brennan
This could only happen years ago. Nowadays that guy would have something like Google Translate on his phone and not need a translator
the way she said "translator" (but in French) sounded almost Turkish
yep sounds like a few different languages in her "french"
The funny thing is the French girl didn't even have a French accent or know the language that well
sorry they don't have french students in school in the usa, they are usually american, you know.
They must have bilingual students, though =_= why not chose one of those ? Or why not play on the fact that she's obviously not French?
SmallCaz in USA ? I highly doubt they have bilingual students I've never met american speaking more than 1 language. She did her best, she's an actress here not a french language master. Even in normal movies they sometimes have american/british actors pretending to be "native speakers" in some foreign language while they sound nothing like it, so yeah.
"Highly doubt they have bilingual students ?" Why not ?There'd be at least one Spanish speaking person. She didn't have to be French, the point was that she's a foreign exchange student. Anyway, her French sounds even worse than the girl playing the translator does, they could at least have switched. Or even better : played on it. But they didn't and it sounds so silly it's distracting.
Cassie2507 I'm not hating, I'm just saying : it's a shame.
"all french people are jerks" said the one who sabotage the conversation for a boy who clearly doesn't like her like that xDDd
and learn language of jerks what a unbelievable girl
Ana, that's the joke.
She was just jealous🥺
As a matter of fact I am French, and I was LMAO when hearing the translator and moreover the "French" girl that seems to come from East Europa.
The positive things is that the 2 girls are true polyglots.
This short film is so awesome, through out the short film there is a smile in my face. surprise at the end is so hilarious . The girl who played Rachael tremendously good i love it. Amazing work.
i thought she was gonna say she was gay at the end XD
ah, me and my gay mind
Omg I thought that too xD
I'm too much into BL movies and series
xVocalNessx SAME
jimin's sugadaddy yay I'm not the only one
xVocalNessx ACTUALLY SAME XD
This sounded more like Spanish and Russian then French. It's funny seeing people trying to pronounce French words
Oli Joni HAHA in my mind i thought is this really french it sounds more like spanish to me
Not Spanish..
I don't know what type of Spanish do you all know, but this doesn't sounds like it anything XD
Oli Joni I know right
That doesnt sound spanish at alll, thafuck
The first two must have taken acting lessons from Jim Carrey. The overacting was the only thing that stood out in the video.
It was both overacted and underacted, simultaniously.
This pretty translator should get the best actress award 🤭😍😂
Their French is terrible lol but it's really funny good job 👍😂
Thank you!! This video has been getting a lot of views lately and I don't really know why, can I ask how you found out about this video?
+BlueDog Productions Perhaps it's because this is on the front page of TH-cam, (at least it was for me). Congrats!
+d4b for me too
Yes it was under recommend videos for me
Lol same it was under recommendation
My french teacher would get soo annoyed with this french...

Malin Sjøvangen im only commenting because ur profile picture it HAMILTON!!
Hi hamilfan.
Malin Sjøvangen nice profile picture
i thought their French sounded fine. mais que diable puis-je savoir? Je suis juste un stupide américain!
I love 'Rachel' 's expression, JUST LOVE!
It was so funny that Claire spoke English.
You are beautifull !
am I the only one who could tell she spoke English?
+Pizza and other foods cool.
+Alice Handersand same
They're all lousy.
they aren't great, but we're past the point of constructive criticism.
From the very beginning, I was thinking: "But she's a foreign exchange student, she probably is better at english than they are." Given all the other obvious errors, though, I didn't think it would be the punchline.
Why are they shouting in a freaking library?!?!?
They spoke so fucking loudly
It's the question of almost all librarians of this world too, yknow
Georgina Palmer Mine too. But the librarian jumps on to the kids and everything's quite again 😂
“Hey, this is library.”
wow what a smart discovery
don't repeat again. ok...
he he he....
Could have been a real good short had they found a real french speaker
This is hilarious! I used it in my ESL class with teenagers and they loved it!
I knew from the moment the french girl opened her mouth she could speak English.
mostly by the way she said "um"
1:58 "You'd be like my favoritest person that I've ever knew". Forget French. This kid can't even speak English.
gritsnsand true
I thought they were actors, speaking Teenage, the language of American high school students.
Look at her eyes and nose reactions😅🤣🤣🤣......she's superb at expressions
Love how Clare walks off and just stands in the corner😂
I'm not French but I know there's something wrong with their pronunciation.
I'm french and I don't understand a lot of words because of their terrible accent, they don't pronunce the "r" like in french
Franchement c'était compliqué à comprendre leurs trucs
Me too lolz.
yes, there is something VERY wrong ( im french )
I can tell they are speaking with strong American accents
@@Shay45 Claire speaks with an American accent, but is still understandable. I can't understand most of what Rachel says.
Possible Plot twist: the girl knows English and the boy knows French!
Edit: Well I was half right...
It would have been funnier if the boy spoke French too!
LOL 😂😙 SPOILERS
😂😂
Pansexual Pancake Love ur username
The result of that is the school has just brought in a first class troll...........
I'm speaking fluently french, and I cannot understand what they are saying without reading the english translation.
Unfortunately, their French has to be improved so much, grammar, vocabulary and accent :0
A half of year ago i watched this video and didn't understand most of the conversations but now i watch it again an i understand most of them so i hope people who are learning language keep consisting and you will achieve whatever you wanted
How could you?? None of us here (bunch of Frenchies) understood any of this "French"!
Couldn't they choose real French people
I think it's a school project for French?
It's probably just a school project.😁😂
If so the french sucks, for school man lmao at least speak real french
Tristan Möller haha, even when you get it at school you don't change in a native speaker.
They did way better than I ever did, while I had 4 years of French
Didn't u hear that all French people are jerks
"You'd be like my favoritest person that I knew in the whole wide world!"
Great grammar.
Chameleon GVA Are you stupid?
WISKYgaming no she’s not stupid she’s being sarcastic
It was cute, it was fun! Sad how everyone wants to rip it apart, even though it's group of teens putting it together! Stay on your course, keep your heads up and believe!
Thank you so much!! I really appreciate that. This video was actually made several years ago and I am now about to graduate college with a film degree :) Thanks for the support!
I certainly agree with you deares where r you from how old r you?
You people realize that “translation” is written form and spoken form is “interpretation,” right? Why does so many people confuse these terms!
Yes we know and we are not confused because here in US we speak English but it is not English that actual English people speak so we have our own ways to use words and terms differently than English English and we do not know why
Sadly most people are almost entirely unconcerned with precise language ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
*Why *do* so many people confuse these terms?
I'm only laughing because of the awful French oh my god 😂😂😂😂
jennisfalling
Same reason why I was laughing too. it sounded like a weird mixture between Spanish and some other foreign language. I had to read the subtitles because they butchered the pronunciation that badly.
Ikr lol
i thought their French sounded fine. mais que diable puis-je savoir? Je suis juste un stupide américain!
c. j. macq I'm a french person and I can confirm that it was impossible to understand all the words correctly. Sometimes, their sentences didn't even make sens!
+Une... I LOVE the French! when I was over there they treated me with the utmost kindness and courtesy. how was my French? was it written correctly?
As a French kid, this is really hard to watch lol
Amy Lally it’s hard to watch anyway... it’s complete cringe
Amy Lally Is it true that French girls don't shave their armpits?
@@Dino23968 wtf
Yea ... u r right
Anthony Nunez ...how do you tell who the bride is at a French wedding? She’s the one with braided armpits.
I love movies that make me giggle and laugh. Thumbs up for this one.
Usually these shorts are a bit to much in trying to figure out, leaving me scratching my head. This one however was wonderfully funny. Thank you.
Disney Channel levels of cringe here
Sith921 yeah ikr
I think this might be slightly worse
@@ill_luck , no! That was right on par!
I cringed hard
smh
INTERPRETER not translator. Translations are written, interpretations are verbal
Wait a minute 😂French is my second language and this girl's French is so funny actually i didn't know what she said without subtitles 😂😂😂👌
The blonde girl be trolling🤣
Although it's a comedy, she's not acting as a translator but as an interpreter.
Translation is written, interpretation is spoken.
Just saying.
Karen Gabriela Badillo Cabrera finally found this comment!
Karen Gabriela Badillo Cabrera no Translation means interpreter translate orally.Translator. means translator interprets written "text"
Ricky Baylon there's a way too big difference between translation and interpretation; as translators we have to deal with the misunderstanding of both disciplines, that's why it's important for us to let know that both have the same purpose, but through a different channel.
Really
You are right but an interpreter is someone who translates like maybe forever? and a translator is someone who just translates for someone for a short period of time.
stupid in english is like the same thing in french so wouldn't she understand that the translator said something different
The actor was probably American too
Yasmine Charrak bm
At the end when the blonde girl says "I knew all French ppl were jerks!" And I'm like, LOOK WHO'S TALKING
That moment when you speak both language fluently XD Still funny! I like it.
this movie in itself is not funny but the french is SO bad it becomes fucking hilarious
Elfie lmao why are people hating dude chill there probably still learning and they clearly know English maybe it’s just the accent but smh it’s not like there offending people
Elfie short stories for kids in one act play in a English
Story telling in one act play in english
One does not simply make light conversation with their crush.
Katie Redhead heheh
This remembered me those days before Google translater was available...😅
This is beautiful. I did not predict it would end like that, brilliant.
They were clearly taught French at the last minute, they don't know what they are saying and they have awful accents.
Deirdre Replinger "Le foof. Poo!" - Joey Tribiani
Deirdre Replinger I mean, it's a student film so idk why you're so butthurt about it.
Believe it or not, I think these folks are American and don't actually speak french.
They are teenagers, idea was good, but your nagging about accents is just stupid.
Deirdre Replinger
Je ne pense pas ils français est... faible. Il est compréhensable. Ils sont Anglais originaires.
What bad french omg
Aw, thank you!
the rolling of the r XD XD dear god
How would you know
+genessa edwards maybe she knows French, duh? I for one know French and it was a little choppy.
A little??? hahahahaha
if someone went like "bRbrbrB" and clawed at me like a cat i'd be out of there before you could say bRbrbrB
Very lovely and with a beautiful twist for the ending! Don't lose your simple and direct sense of humor. Ingenious use of the Verdi Requiem - and Tyler Hany was really worth fighting over! 🙂

The blonde girl is hilarious!
I have been watching this since I was born..and this time I write a comment in April 2020 so maybe 10 years letter I will remember
I am french and I did not understood a word when they spoke in French. xD
accent issue?
That did not sound french at all...They sounded like they were reading french words in english.
They probably used google translate the whole time
truthfully this is how the schools in america teach us how to speak french... at least thats how mine did.
me too
I am half French and now offended
But whatever this made me laugh
Hollyleaf81 Which half tho?
I'm not french but americans are the real jerks here
I'm a Filipino and I love girls in general. Just saying
TRIGGERED
The blonde girl is a great actress.
looks like this generation's library is a romance den.
Called it! Ever since she said: "aah, oui", I knew she spoke English. Clever subtle foreshadowing, well made, and while most would down this film, I would love to see more of your work and encourage you to keep it up! Awesome job guys!
English has entered the chat

The Blonde girl is a very good actress! Excellent acting. Great Film!
Their "French" is just the best!😂
Just came from watching a short horror story.
E me too
Same
E me too 😂
You mean you watched it or just came all over yourself?
and the horror story continued with their terrible accents ruining the otherwise funny story and acting!
What kind of camera was used to film this? It seems very high quality
Chibi Ahiru Thank you!! It was shot on a Sony A7s!
I've done this back in the day, without the ending. Still funny.
Very good short, nice twist at the end.
The blonde girl is an excellent actress! 🎭
"Claire" had such an American accent. this was kind of stupid
While the punchline was obvious, the directing and acting were spot on.
Nice use of whip pans.
Quinn Hargrove Thank you very much!
BlueDog Productions You're welcome!
Quinn Hargrove check out sheafy that guy is good
Well I learned french in school & college, hated the grammar, and glad I didn't ever have to use it. Couldn't tell the difference in the accents, and the French CAN be really rude jerks - (but then so can we all!?) so I LOVED the video. Good direction, acting, cast and overall fun to watch. A definite thumbs up from me!!
Love this video! Malerie Razzis is brilliant throughout , perfectly funny
Isn't that the library? Why are they talking so loud and no one is telling them anything
French is aloud LANGUAG (pun intended)
Very well done production - Director Burrell gets 5 stars out of five from me! The gal who played Rachel was tremendously good - she definitely played the part well. Thanks for posting!
T Mukal Thank you for commenting! I really appreciate the feedback and I'm glad you liked it :)
I really enjoyed watching this short movie , it makes me extremely happier than ever , I would say , this was so cool .
This is so well made, Rachel is the best translator lol
