I watched this hoping to prepare for a french listening test because the more we listen the better we get at it. But i didn't expect such depth and meaning in this. I started tearing up and remembered the important things in life. Merçi
Sandra Meunier est vraiment passionnante! Un Ange terrestre qui donne envie de transmettre la joie! Merci; douce Fée! merci pour ce joli flambeau à partager sans lasse!
c'est pas son mon metier qui est extraordinaire, c'est elle .....quelle magie, quelle femme ....sublime, j'aimerais tellement avoir des personne comme sa sur ma route ... ELLE est sublime .
Why are foreign talks not treated the same as English talks? It's a two-tier site which doesn't cater in the same fashion for English speaking foreign language learners. For example, an English learner gets audio in L2 and gets two-way interactive subs in L1 and in L2 on the Ted site. As English speakers, we get interactive subs in L1 & L2 but no audio on the Ted site and have go to YT where we get audio in L2 and one-way non interactive subs in L1 and L2. It's not really fair and I urge everyone to make this point to Ted. I contacted them about it 6 months ago but nothing has been done.
Craig H. No, try Rosetta Stone, it says the words clearly and right, use Rosetta Stone, if I were you, I would use Rosetta Stone, when I try it, i saw a big difference between the two, Duolingo doesn't say the words correctly many time and it says them too fast.
Bravo! J'aime beaucoup son/ses message. Sorry i do not know if message if masculine or feminine. My french is bad. My guess is feminine since it ends with e?
When you are watching a video, just click on the 3 dots button on the right corner on the top of the screen. You will see subtile, turn them on. Hope that it will help
Pollyanna... I've always loved Pollyanna! However, I'm uncertain that we're all equal in our capacity to be Pollyannaish. First, I suspect there is some hereditary components to how we respond to stressors... we don't choose our genetic makeup. Secondly, I think to some extent no matter perhaps how you choose to look at things, greater environmental stressors likely will make it more difficult for many of us to remain positive and enthusiastic. There's also questions here concerning authenticity. Could it just be that some people are just simply miserable people? If being miserable is your authentic self, then... Further, although I'm not certain this is entirely inconsistent with her thesis, arguably sorrow is simply part of the human experience too. If the sorrow is authentic, then should one try to put a smile where a tear might arguably be more appropriate?
+Daisy Bell You appear to be so focussed on defending depressions that you are not able to see the beyond what it is in front of your face. The forest for the trees. The reality of now opposed to the fear of when? who knows?
True about there _might_ be some hereditary factors, but then that's also true for other things, like how athletic we can potentially be. Not everybody of us has the genetics to be a world-class ballet dancer, but almost all of us are lucky enough to have a body that can be athletic, given the training. Same for being Pollyannaish.

wow...
Est-ce que a été seulement moi qui s'est rendu compte que ne personne s'est élevé pour la applaudir°
hello, can someone help me with French? I am a beginner and would like to be fluent.
Duolingo
***** je suis en accord avec toi
Craig H. No, try Rosetta Stone, it says the words clearly and right, use Rosetta Stone, if I were you, I would use Rosetta Stone, when I try it, i saw a big difference between the two, Duolingo doesn't say the words correctly many time and it says them too fast.
Elias Manzanares yh, but it's expensive
Duolingo, with the help of a grammar book. Some are open-source PDFs and aren't hard to find. I speak French thanks mostly to Duolingo though
Bravo! J'aime beaucoup son/ses message. Sorry i do not know if message if masculine or feminine. My french is bad. My guess is feminine since it ends with e?
message est masculin
c'est " le message "
even if it ends with an "e"
❤️
Why is not it translated in english
Abdo Abdalla you can turn on the cc button
Vũ Hồng Nhung How can I find that button?

Comment
The French audience is very un-responsive. The Americans cheer or laugh after everything.
seeing someone as a clown is uplifting?- or making fun at the persons expense - anger-raising
😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁❤
Quelle belle femme
(Je suis américain donc mon français est mauvais)
il faut joindre l utile à l agreable
Est-ce que je suis l'unique personne qui pense que il y a quelque chose de bizarre en cette femme?
VOUS n'êtes pas le seul , moi aussi je pense qu'il y a quelque chose bizare en elle.
Bizarre de façon positive bien sûr:)
Pas du tout et je trouve que sa voix est adorable.
