      Spanish, Italian and Portuguese are sisters. French are cousin, family but from further. French was very influenced by Germanic pronunciation. The Letter "U" cannot be pronounced by a spanish speaker but easily pronounced by a German speaker. Althrough, when you read french its closer to roman languages.

      c'est un peu faussé je pense car on apprend l'espagnol à l'école en général, donc on est accoutumé à la prononciation latine (italien/espagnol), on peut ensuite faire une comparaison du lexique entre les deux langues. Il faudrait l'avis d'un français qui n'a jamais étudié l'espagnol ou l'italien. Je parle espagnol, donc je pense que c'est la seul raison pour laquelle je peux comprendre quelque peu l'italien. Le portugais par contre est un peu comme le français, ils ont une prononciation qui diffère un peu du coup c'est plus compliqué.

    As an Italian who speaks also french I can understand why it was sooo difficult for them all: french is quite easy for an Italian if you take into consideration the "altered" pronunciation. Once you know how letters sound in french, it all makes more sense and even if you can't speak it, you can understand much better.

    • @michele3900
      @michele3900 2 ปีที่แล้ว +22

      Yes! Once you know that ca ->che/cha, and that -eaux/eux/->ello, esempio castello->chateaux, capello,->cheveux, it is easier.
      Other rules: et->st, ec->sc, ep->sp, examples: Etoile, ecole, epee become stella, scuola, spada (forgive the lack of marks on the vowels, I do not have a french keyboard).
      And there are many other regular rules like this to help. But it can be hard to figure them out in oral comunication! You need to study them a bit.

      As a portuguese speaker who's learned Frrench, I completely agree. The two things that make french unintelligible are #1 the heavily warped accent and #2 disfigured words because of consonants droppings.
      Once you get over the heavy accent thing, French becomes completely intelligible as well.
      Improvising french by making french-like adaptations to portuguese words works remarkably well.

      This proves that French isn't a Romance language at all. It's a celt language at heart with vulgar latin influence and spoken by Frankish Germanics. It's more similar to English. English is a Germanic langauge with Latin influence. I bet you could add a Russian or Greek and the Spanish, Portugese and Italian could understand the Russian or Grek far better than the French. They already understood the Romanian better.

    Spanish and Portuguese: two egg twins
    Italian: sibling
    French: sibling but early hanged around to much with the german and celtic kids on the other side of the river and showed early on an odd behavior and drank alot when french got older which made him speak different. Portuguse hanged later on with french for a bit and got affected and never really recovered as it was a lot of wine drinking. Spanish was really confused of how his twin was speaking as he got the same nasal speakin and wrote some words in a way but spoke them in another way but spanish tried to help. Gladly portuguese never went so far as french and french were locked from the family bcs of french's behavior and bad ideas. Sadly portuguse kid gallician inheriated her fathers speakin problems. Spanish kid catalan was aswell a problem as french wanted to revenge that he was kicked out out of the family so he tried to manipulate and support catalan to rebel against papa spanish. Spanish other kids asturian, and aragonian got badly too influenced by catalan but papa spanish saved their souls and they promised to never speak weird again and rebel and act bad like catalan. Spanish wanted to adopt the little kid basque but he was very aggressive and liked to rebel. He and catalan were both rebel bois but enemies to each other. Occitan were kid to french but aswell a rebel but he got alot of spankin by abusive papa french.
    So here we have the tragedic story of the romance family of how bad company and influence can damage and divide everyone and why french was like he were.

      There's a "cadence" or "singing" but in terms of grammar and pronunciation, it feels like they add "SH" or "ZH" to things where we use "S" or "C". In my opinion, as a spanish speaker, though italian has a more "clear" sound and I can visualize the letters and spelling, I might lack reference to understand it, so I'd say words are still overall more similar when you compare portuguese and spanish.

      You need either more imagination, or more exposure. As a French native speaker I found it very easy to understand the Italian lady, both in this video and in another one where she explains words that others have to guess. I've never formally studied Italian, but I'm half Corsican and I like to listen to Italian music so I guess this exposure makes it easier for me to understand Italian. I'm pretty sure you'd also be able to understand French reasonably well with some exposure to the language.
