@@OinkOinkOinkOink Yes we actually don't use most of the words he said. Like Acadabrantesque (that even he struggled pronouncing if you watch carefully), we never use that. A fart in French isn't really prout, that's more of a slang or a word used for kids, a fart is called 'un pet' (like the animal but without pronouncing the T 😅). Anyway I really thought he would teach them proper French but I don't see what an English speaker would do with a pamplemousse if they come to France...
In many ways it is a language that is used outside of France with variations. There is a French culture, but France doesn’t have a monopoly on the French language.
As an Italian born and raised in France, I can relate. In fact, I do not feel THAT Italian, and will always root for the BLUE white and red. Yet, don’t come criticizing Italy in front of me, and when I’m going to visit my family on the peninsula, I understand that I am indeed Italian. So yeah, not too sure what I am.
I think all of us who were born somewhere but spend the majority of their life somewhere else (especially if we have parents on both side I think) can relate indeed
@@jetaddicted I sympathize a lot with the way that you feel. I remember opening up about feeling more American that Mexican to some of my Mexican family and they became angry at me. They accused me of being ashamed of my heritage and wanting to be more "White", whatever that means. I am not ashamed of my heritage and I am actually very prideful of it, but whenever I go to Mexico, there is always that "disconnect". I try very hard to talk to my cousins and people of my age group but I simply missed out on the experience of actually growing up there which really does isolate you. With that being said, I have come to the realization that I actually do not have to pick a side. No one is pointing a gun to our heads forcing us to choose what nationality we feel most connected to. Us the children of immigrants, mixed marriages, and any other circumstance that has placed them in the middle of two worlds have a beautiful gift that majority of the world will never experience. Do not be sad because you are unsure of who you are, be glad that you are a child of the world!
@@jetaddicted Français d'origine italienne du coup Pour moi si tu grandis en France et que tu payes tes taxes en France, tu contribues au pays donc tu ne peux que être Français Après c'est le comportement, tu le sais sûrement mais ya énormément de gens chez nous qui ont jamais mis un pied en dehors de la France et qui se proclament de leur pays d'origine et non français
Since Armand is teaching French, I cannot wait for the next episode where Max discusses Architecture. (Edit: Thank you for all the likes and the laughs. Also, there’s nothing called ‘Indian’ as a language. Plz don’t be weird. Some great suggestions in the replies btw)
I keep on forgetting that Armand is already 18 and totally allowed to drink wine. From Milkis to Wine. 😭😭 We've seen them grow up in front of our eyes.
Even if he wasnt 18, it is still legal to drink alcohol under 18 within a private residence or other private building in the UK (so like not a pub or restaurant for example)
He's also French....I feel like that counts for something. I think it's common (in France) to drink a little wine (with water?) from a young-ish age with dinner, at home, as a way of normalising drinking it.
@@haechan.xuiiii i think you mean he behaves in a mature way. He is not head boy in college for nothing. He definitely has leadership quality and an assuring personality.

Ollie just going rogue and yelling out all the French phrases he knows has me laughing so hard. Ollie is such a natural born comedian and brings so much joy to every situation he's in. 😆

As a French person, the funniest part of the video was trying to guess what the actual words Armand was teaching them were from the mangled versions Josh and Ollie were saying :) No one has said "sacrebleu" out loud since 1900 or thereabout, but actually, like many old curse words, "bleu" (meaning blue) was used to replace "Dieu" (God) as it was considered blasphemy to invoke the name of the Lord. So the original, sacrilegeous, version would be "sacré Dieu" (good God, more or less), which no one would say because for a long time France was a deeply catholic country, especially in rural areas, people would instead use "sacrebleu" instead. But no one living ever uses it, though I can't speak for ghosts or the occasional overdramatic ironic theater or history student. A similar case would be "morbleu", which used to be "mordieu", or "god's death". Thank you Armand for preventively telling people "à jolie vite" is not actual French, I'm sure you've spared lots of us heart attacks :) And yes, travelers to France should definitely branch out from Paris, there are so many amazing places to see. Brittany is beautiful, would love to see you guys visit!
Blue was the colors of royalty, since they were supposed to be of divine descent as well. Thus, "sacré bleu" was supposed to be about royal blood in general. This is where "palsambleu" comes from as well. It means "Par le sang bleu" "By the blue blood" which would be noble blood.

In America? Really? Growing up with a Mexican family, I have always noticed they maintain their national pride pretty consistently in their own communities. Was that not the case for you?
@@islandurth oh I have great pride for my community but there are instances when I feel more American than Mexican especially when it comes to issues like machismo and racism/colorism. I’ve gotten into some pretty heated arguments with cousins from Mexico over theses issues.
Same here. I’m Korean-American, born and raised in the US for half of my childhood. Then I moved to Korea and I’ve been living here since. Especially after moving to Korea, I’ve never felt Korean enough to be fully Korean but again not American enough to be fully American. Spent most of my childhood with a crippling identity crisis haha
Got me thinking for a second, as a French (also from Brittany) I do look at people straight in the eyes when chatting. Didn't really realise it's a specific thing we do.
For someone who wants to learn french just remember that 80% of the french that is spoken en France and Belgium is actually slang. So if you really want to learn the french that is spoken and the way it is spoken you absolutely have to live in the country. As, i think, most of the languages around the world btw.
@@hoshismissingbooster absolument pas, forcément ya beaucoup de mots qui peuvent ne pas être compris mais bon quand on parle on utilise pas 80% d'argot hein c'est un mot par ci par là mais le commentaire exagère énormément le trait
he really speaks French like a gentleman, at least they won't hear "wesh y'a quoi" or in French we don't say "do you understand" but "ta capté". So it's great they learn are to speak like good gentlemens.
@@maxcrespy7482 J'ai jamais dit que tout les français parlaient comme des jeunes de 17 ans. J'ai seulement fais la "remarque" que malgré son jeune âge je trouve qu'il parle un peu d'une manière bourgeoise voila tout. C'est juste une remarque pas une critique négative ou autre.
@@lilyr6720 logique, il a appris strictement avec ses parents et en cours. Peu d'interactions avec des jeunes francophones donc pas l'occasion de vulgariser son langage...
@@lilyr6720 Bourgeois? Il parle normalement, ou du moins comme la plupart des jeunes de son âge. Je trouve que t’exagères un peu. PS: Et entendre quelques jeunes dire « t’as capté » ne veut pas dire qu’ils n’utilisent jamais « tu comprends ». C’est juste plus familier de parler comme un petit jeunot entre petits jeunots.
As a French, born and raised in France, we definitely say "Oulala, Olala, Alala...", even "Eula", depending on the region you're from. My American host family tells me I say it too much and even adopted it in their language 😂 Then the fart noise he's doing at the beginning that means "I don't know" is also totally a French habit 😁
As a french, switiching from english to french is hard. If I'm speaking french and I want to say something in english, I usually end up with a thick french accent for the first words of the sentence lol.
Personally I have 3 accents for each language I speak. I actually had no idea that I was doing that before someone told me. People say that I look like someone completely different because even my voice changes apparently
It’s pretty obvious that Armand is more drawn to Ollie, while talking, he’s mostly always facing him. And I think that is because Ollie and Max are pretty similar personality and vibe wise, so Armand might’ve found that familiarity comforting. Just an observation and I’m not saying he dislikes Josh!! 😁
I think that might be because on their trip josh likely was responsible for wrangling peopel and doing the serious explinations of stuff ect where as ollie is normally in the background or able to just be the funny guy who's sort of hanging around because more of his work happens when they're not filming in terms of korean englishman videos. It's possible josh feels more like a teacher in that case.
Hey guys I totally use sacrebleu, morbleu and pardieu 😂 it's ancient French but it's funny. Don't be afraid of French people (I meant "Parisians"). We're nice, you just gotta say "bonjour excusez-moi" before asking us for something (hello, excuse me). It's basic manners in France. Even as a Parisian if I don't start the conversation like this, people in the street or stores won't want to help me 😉
Salut du Québec! Ici, l’expression sacrebleu est encore utilisée par quelques personnes. Surtout les 50 ans et plus je dirais 😅 morbleu et pardieu, non 😂
French Canadian here! Sacré bleu (or sacrebleu; sacred god) is an old Quebec term, similar to 'good heavens!' -- many terms related to the church are common profanities in Quebec, and they're called the Sacres (to consecrate). The MOST common day-to-day terms used here (in my family, at least) are Câlice (the chalice), Criss (christ), Esti (the host), Tabarkak (the tabernacle), Ciboire (ciborium), and Sacrement (also sacrement lol). Using them in France is hilarious 'cause people just think you're a religious nut... 😅
I used to see sacré bleu in old french books I read. So, sacré bleu was used in the past but not anymore. Since it used to be used by the french, the English in the past must have heard it and kept it in the their beliefs of how french people spoke. That caricature of the frenchman must have persisted today. Like you said, Sacré bleu is sacred god. But bleu here is a replacement for the word dieu (god in french), since saying the word god in that way is considered a blasphemy for Christians. So dieu was replaced by bleu cause it rhymes. It's like saying gosh darn it instead of god damn it. I guess it's not used anymore by the french, cause the french aren't heavily as religious as before.
This was just plain hilarious! This episode really didn't teach much about French, but more of finding Ollie extremely funny. I remember him learning Korean, which didn't go anywhere either. Missed seeing Ollie in front of the camera instead of behind.
Armand is elegant, polite, smart, educated, funny, has tremendous self possession and is as gorgeous as a model. He will go incredibly far in life. So great to see him featured on the channel. He and Max who is wonderful as well, are just the most charming, adorable pair ever!
Ollie's stereotypical French and English sounds are so accurate! Good job, ollie. Your talent knows no bounds! Also, the cheese cutting thing was super interesting, I never knew that. Thanks Armand!
I honestly feel like Armand has this chemistry with the boys when on camera and they just make comedy gold! Anytime I see Armand I know it is going to be hilarious and a good episode! (All episodes are honestly good episodes...) But this video is perfect! And Armand really took this seriously and wrote everything down just to in the end make fun of Ollie's French speaking skills... ahahahahaha!!!!!!!!
I love how Armand looks at the chesse while Ollie is ripping it with his hand or saying "do not compare Greggs to a French bakery". I had the exact same reaction while watching the video and I said the same thing to my British friends once. This is really French 😂
Well as an American there's no such thing as real American because depending on what region you live in or state or sometimes even just neighborhoods the way people speak their accents words they use can be completely different it's like going into another country with a whole bunch of slang LOL the United States is huge we are a very large landmass and we are made up of all different kinds of people from all over the world so we have all different stuff everywhere I happen to live in Colorado which is The melting pot I can walk in any direction and get any different types of foods you go in one neighborhood the billboards are in Spanish you go in another neighborhood there's all kinds of African stuff and that's just in my own state so good luck with how to speak American because American is English by the way LOL
@@philippesoares1745 I never said that it was the proper way to speak English I just said that it was English I'm speaking English and you can read everything that I'm saying and I'm an American is it a foreign language to you no I'm speaking English and we're not England so we don't speak proper English as you say LOL but you can say whatever you want to try to upset me it's not going to work I just think that it's a ridiculous comment LOL have a nice day
Would absolutely love to see a series of French lessons with Armand!! Absolutely wonderful to see more of him. Not only that, would love to see Gabie and Armand engaging with each other in French and Josh and Ollie figuring out what they are saying
I remember Armand is the most likeable since their very first appearance trying out korean food. Such a fine gentleman he just basically grew right before our eyes.
I, someone about to graduate highschool, almost spat out my tea when I saw that title. He looks like he’s at least in his twenties and seens vastly more mature than any guy I know. We must need more French genetics in the midwest 😂😅
I'm thoroughly enjoying your tour of Northern Italy with Mr. Z. A tour of Britanny with Armand definitely needs to happen. Traveling with native hosts is providing a lot of context along with the fun shenanigans.
YES to a Brittany trip with Armand as guide! YES a million times yes! And bring Max, because, we miss him. And I want regular episodes of Armand teaching everyday French language to get us ready!
Now Armand experienced the suffering of teaching Ollie a language 🤣🤣 well done you three! We cant wait to see more! Anything with the fulham boys are amazing
Armand en train d'essayer de faire apprendre des mots en français à Ollie est juste super amusant à voir. It's always good to see Ollie and Josh learning new things in a entertaining way!
I noticed it too, but my guess is it's a combination of editing (you can see lots of cuts when you watch it and look for it, so my best guess is it's not that he's just sitting there nonstop staring at ollie but that maybe him constantly flipping back and forth to both was cut down for time issues) and the fact that Ollie is his student and does a lot of the talking. I mean he came prepared with a list etc lol
I love that it’s “teaches us REAL French” cos we all know Ollie speaks his own unique type of not real French
Ollie's French sounds like French but it isn't French 😅
Lmfao exactly 😂

Armand and Max should totally replace Josh and Ollie one episode with no warning. Just do it all like it's totally normal 😂

This is the best idea I've ever heard on this channel's comments and I need to see this happen now that you've put this idea in my mind!!!

@@islandurth oh I have great pride for my community but there are instances when I feel more American than Mexican especially when it comes to issues like machismo and racism/colorism. I’ve gotten into some pretty heated arguments with cousins from Mexico over theses issues.
Agreed. I'm an American who was raised in England. I've never been able to answer the question, "where are you from?" Hahaha
@@nancyg8531 how about you get to be both? 🙂
Same here. I’m Korean-American, born and raised in the US for half of my childhood. Then I moved to Korea and I’ve been living here since. Especially after moving to Korea, I’ve never felt Korean enough to be fully Korean but again not American enough to be fully American. Spent most of my childhood with a crippling identity crisis haha
Please have a video of a tour of Armand's hometown. It would be great to see french culture outside of Paris
Armand said in this video he was born in England.
@@Lavendarsblue he said it on the end bit of the video as his parent's home from Brittany
That would be London then

I feel like Armand is the kind of person where if you're in conversation with him, will look you right in the eyes
YES! Like he was staring Ollie in the eyes and I was getting shy because of that😭
It's part of the french upbringing : when you talk to someone you look at him or else it may seems disrespectful
@@ckdia16 Ohh! That is such a sweet gesture.
I heard he’s studying something connected to politics and if so, talking straight in the eye will help so much in that field
Got me thinking for a second, as a French (also from Brittany) I do look at people straight in the eyes when chatting. Didn't really realise it's a specific thing we do.
It would be Amazing to let two cheese connoisseurs meet: Ollie’s Dad and Armand
this would be an amazing episode. Them comparing cheese notes while Josh and Ollie gag at the smelly ones
YES
I like how the only thing they have in common is that they both like cheese 😂
Armand really adores Ollie by the way he looks at him. 😂 I hurt my cheeks for smiling and laughing the whole video looool
i love how armand fully turns to look at the person he's talking to/who is talking. its so endearing
Josh sitting in the corner pouring himself wine during this is a vibe 😂
He knew teaching Ollie is a task 😂
He was third wheeling so hard :')
For someone who wants to learn french just remember that 80% of the french that is spoken en France and Belgium is actually slang. So if you really want to learn the french that is spoken and the way it is spoken you absolutely have to live in the country. As, i think, most of the languages around the world btw.
truth
Wrong
never seen such accurate comment
@@guerric bah si frero
@@hoshismissingbooster absolument pas, forcément ya beaucoup de mots qui peuvent ne pas être compris mais bon quand on parle on utilise pas 80% d'argot hein c'est un mot par ci par là mais le commentaire exagère énormément le trait
Ollie is definitely giving Emily Cooper Energy. Ngl I would actually like to binge watch 4 Seasons of ‘Ollie in Paris’.
Lmfaoo wait I hope they actually make this happen 😂
we need this as a series!!! 😭
Ollie in Paris!! 😂😂😂
Ollie in Paris is probably much better
And he bumps into Emily from The Devil Wears Prada at a cafe in Paris!
the fact that armand has to experience what josh has to go through with teaching languages already earns my respect.
he really speaks French like a gentleman, at least they won't hear "wesh y'a quoi" or in French we don't say "do you understand" but "ta capté". So it's great they learn are to speak like good gentlemens.
tu crois vraiment que tous les français parlent comme des mecs de 17 ans ?
@@maxcrespy7482 J'ai jamais dit que tout les français parlaient comme des jeunes de 17 ans. J'ai seulement fais la "remarque" que malgré son jeune âge je trouve qu'il parle un peu d'une manière bourgeoise voila tout. C'est juste une remarque pas une critique négative ou autre.
@@lilyr6720 logique, il a appris strictement avec ses parents et en cours. Peu d'interactions avec des jeunes francophones donc pas l'occasion de vulgariser son langage...
@@aesalys3123 Oui c'est vrai, ça se comprend du coup
@@lilyr6720 Bourgeois? Il parle normalement, ou du moins comme la plupart des jeunes de son âge. Je trouve que t’exagères un peu.
PS: Et entendre quelques jeunes dire « t’as capté » ne veut pas dire qu’ils n’utilisent jamais « tu comprends ». C’est juste plus familier de parler comme un petit jeunot entre petits jeunots.
We need Gabie and Armand speaking French with Ollie .
up!
let's make this happen
YES
Yes please
Already, English speakers have used many FR words^^; | Миру мир!
I really like that Armand is super engaged in the conversation. His body language : leaning and staring into their eyes. Love it :D So charming!
Yeah especially to Ollie 🙈
As if he couldn’t get anymore charming 🥰
As a French, born and raised in France, we definitely say "Oulala, Olala, Alala...", even "Eula", depending on the region you're from. My American host family tells me I say it too much and even adopted it in their language 😂 Then the fart noise he's doing at the beginning that means "I don't know" is also totally a French habit 😁
English people? They are Norman Frenchs^^; | Пусть наш Бог хранит Україну.
😂 spot on . Your comment made me happy
ohlala Ollie il faut réviser ton coréen aussi lol... 😂
Aïe😂
Thank god for google translate
Gabie, we need you to have a conversation with Armand in French 😁😁😁😁
oh yeah, Gabie speak french..Its nice if they are all together in nxt video..haha
🇧🇷🇧🇷
As soon as he entered the French conversation, his accent even sounded more French when he spoke English!
As a french, switiching from english to french is hard. If I'm speaking french and I want to say something in english, I usually end up with a thick french accent for the first words of the sentence lol.
@@janelc1843 Makes sense to me! I just find it fascinating
Personally I have 3 accents for each language I speak. I actually had no idea that I was doing that before someone told me. People say that I look like someone completely different because even my voice changes apparently
올리 인사가 끝나자마자 바로 후드티 벗고 베레모 쓰고 와인이랑 치즈 꺼내는게 엄청 웃겼어요ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ이럴줄 알고!! 라는듯이 바리바리 꺼내서 준비성 엄청 대단하네요ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ
It’s pretty obvious that Armand is more drawn to Ollie, while talking, he’s mostly always facing him. And I think that is because Ollie and Max are pretty similar personality and vibe wise, so Armand might’ve found that familiarity comforting. Just an observation and I’m not saying he dislikes Josh!! 😁
i noticed that too hahah
I think that might be because on their trip josh likely was responsible for wrangling peopel and doing the serious explinations of stuff ect where as ollie is normally in the background or able to just be the funny guy who's sort of hanging around because more of his work happens when they're not filming in terms of korean englishman videos. It's possible josh feels more like a teacher in that case.
Also if ur right handed u tend to turn ur head more towards right…i dunno I naturally feel inclined to turn right
@@paolomaldinification he’s turning to the left, it’s not mirrored
Hey guys I totally use sacrebleu, morbleu and pardieu 😂 it's ancient French but it's funny. Don't be afraid of French people (I meant "Parisians"). We're nice, you just gotta say "bonjour excusez-moi" before asking us for something (hello, excuse me). It's basic manners in France. Even as a Parisian if I don't start the conversation like this, people in the street or stores won't want to help me 😉
Salut du Québec! Ici, l’expression sacrebleu est encore utilisée par quelques personnes. Surtout les 50 ans et plus je dirais 😅 morbleu et pardieu, non 😂
Gérard utilise même 2 "Pardieu"...
I love Ollie and Armand's dynamic. Armand seems like he engages anyone he's in conversation with
French Canadian here! Sacré bleu (or sacrebleu; sacred god) is an old Quebec term, similar to 'good heavens!' -- many terms related to the church are common profanities in Quebec, and they're called the Sacres (to consecrate). The MOST common day-to-day terms used here (in my family, at least) are Câlice (the chalice), Criss (christ), Esti (the host), Tabarkak (the tabernacle), Ciboire (ciborium), and Sacrement (also sacrement lol). Using them in France is hilarious 'cause people just think you're a religious nut... 😅
Lived in Montreal for four years! Caliss tabarnak was the first phrase I learned 😂
plus, you can make crazy run-on french swear word sentences to convey just how angry you are ! (calice de criss d'osti de tabernak de... ) etc etc 😅
acadian sounds of agreement
Aaaah, now it makes sense. Thanks for the context!
I used to see sacré bleu in old french books I read. So, sacré bleu was used in the past but not anymore. Since it used to be used by the french, the English in the past must have heard it and kept it in the their beliefs of how french people spoke. That caricature of the frenchman must have persisted today. Like you said, Sacré bleu is sacred god. But bleu here is a replacement for the word dieu (god in french), since saying the word god in that way is considered a blasphemy for Christians. So dieu was replaced by bleu cause it rhymes. It's like saying gosh darn it instead of god damn it. I guess it's not used anymore by the french, cause the french aren't heavily as religious as before.
Jolly should've just made a series of "Ollie learn languages" because watching him learn a new language is always so funny🤣
He interrupted Armand so much that it was making me uncomfortable 😅
😂
The way Armand keeps reaching for the wine every time Ollie says something in "french". 😂
And how Josh "needed" wine not even a third of the way into the video...
I know we'd all LOVE to see more of Armand in your videos, he's so kind, intelligent and has a very similar sense of humour to both Josh and Ollie.
We need a Jolly and Armax series to France!!! 😂
This episode is hilarious... I've watched it several times and I laugh out loud every time...
We want an Armand x Gabie collab. Let both French speakers have a conversation and let Josh and Ollie guess what they're saying! ^^
up!
let's make this happen 🤣
Good idea 🤩
That's would be a awesome idea
Yes!
Josh on the side being embarassed at Ollie trying to not dive into clichés and remain the mature figure is so freaking funny idk
🇧🇷🇧🇷
This was just plain hilarious! This episode really didn't teach much about French, but more of finding Ollie extremely funny. I remember him learning Korean, which didn't go anywhere either. Missed seeing Ollie in front of the camera instead of behind.
I would love to see some more about max’s indian heritige as well! The boys are absolute legends and cant wait to see more of them
OMG yesssss
hottest curry tour? i heard British curry is "mild" than the OG, but some are flamethrowers
Yeah I second this for sure.
rightt i was so suprised when he said his mom is indian , but after he mentioned it I definitely see it lol
@@lucidrosie not his mom, but his grandma
Armand sums it up best with: “This is going to be a long French lesson.”
I'll never get over Armand and his beauty both inside and out.
Armand is elegant, polite, smart, educated, funny, has tremendous self possession and is as gorgeous as a model. He will go incredibly far in life. So great to see him featured on the channel. He and Max who is wonderful as well, are just the most charming, adorable pair ever!
Ollie's stereotypical French and English sounds are so accurate! Good job, ollie. Your talent knows no bounds! Also, the cheese cutting thing was super interesting, I never knew that. Thanks Armand!
🧀!
I love how josh is just eating the whole video while Armand teachs Ollie
So proud to be French and even Breton, thank you for representing us Armand ! 😄😄
❤❤
BZH 😎
@@khalilahd. LEAVE ME ALONE! PLEASE I'M BEGGING YOU
Les bretons on est partout c'est dingue xD
I can literally see Ollie's energy is draining Josh's. That enthusiasm 🙌🏻
Aslo, i'm really glad that Jolly exists.
I died when Armand tried to explain what the digestif was and Ollie interrupted him by saying "le peptobismol"
I honestly feel like Armand has this chemistry with the boys when on camera and they just make comedy gold! Anytime I see Armand I know it is going to be hilarious and a good episode! (All episodes are honestly good episodes...) But this video is perfect! And Armand really took this seriously and wrote everything down just to in the end make fun of Ollie's French speaking skills... ahahahahaha!!!!!!!!
Hearing Armand's accent become more French as the video on was the highlight here 😂
Lol exactly
Armand's wide smile is everything
Why do I feel like this could turn into another “Ollie learns a language” series 😂 Love it!
I love how Armand looks at the chesse while Ollie is ripping it with his hand or saying "do not compare Greggs to a French bakery". I had the exact same reaction while watching the video and I said the same thing to my British friends once. This is really French 😂
Armand, he is really gentleman. what a nice manner all the timeee
It was hilarious to see Armand’s joy and disdain in this episode 😂 what a wonderful human being. This video was a joy to watch!
I want some more episode with Armand. I don't care that would be french tour, cooking, French lesson, Korean learning whatsoever.
Bring back Armand and team up with Gabie for any french related episode. 😄
Time for Max to teach you how to speak REAL American!
Mmmmh.... If I'm not wrong, American is the wrong way to speack English.....
Well as an American there's no such thing as real American because depending on what region you live in or state or sometimes even just neighborhoods the way people speak their accents words they use can be completely different it's like going into another country with a whole bunch of slang LOL the United States is huge we are a very large landmass and we are made up of all different kinds of people from all over the world so we have all different stuff everywhere I happen to live in Colorado which is The melting pot I can walk in any direction and get any different types of foods you go in one neighborhood the billboards are in Spanish you go in another neighborhood there's all kinds of African stuff and that's just in my own state so good luck with how to speak American because American is English by the way LOL
@@RE-bg9ds exactly!
@@philippesoares1745 I never said that it was the proper way to speak English I just said that it was English I'm speaking English and you can read everything that I'm saying and I'm an American is it a foreign language to you no I'm speaking English and we're not England so we don't speak proper English as you say LOL but you can say whatever you want to try to upset me it's not going to work I just think that it's a ridiculous comment LOL have a nice day

Would absolutely love to see a series of French lessons with Armand!! Absolutely wonderful to see more of him. Not only that, would love to see Gabie and Armand engaging with each other in French and Josh and Ollie figuring out what they are saying
Ouuuu yesss that would be fun!
I remember Armand is the most likeable since their very first appearance trying out korean food. Such a fine gentleman he just basically grew right before our eyes.
So excited for this. Josh, Ollie and Armand need to be a regular series in Jolly like Jollibee 😍
Jollimand...
...then Jollimax.
@@LuciferLizardo 🗼💯💯💯💯💯
Jolli-mand? You have to say it with a French accent, though, so the "mand" sounds like "mon".
@@sarahcoleman5269totally. I need to practice my fake French accent soon 😁
Must have Max as well for complete chaos
Not even a third of the way in and Ollie’s already got Armand reaching for the wine 🍷 😂
Ollie is my favorite person on RUclips. His humor is totally like mine, just running to bring in wine and cheese out of nowhere.
I loved the energy Armand and Ollie had together, it made the episode very fun and chaotic
Absolutely up for Armand's trip with Josh and Ollie!
Armand is so patient.... and always with a smile.
I wish Gabie could have joined you guys! She can commiserate with Armand on how Ollie butchers the French language.
We need a video of Armand and Gabie communicating in pure French
@@krisretro and the two of em being as puzzled as Ollie when josh decided on a day of only korean
I think I can hear her laughter in the background
@@krisretro Armand and Gabie making a 10-course meal while speaking French...
@@LuciferLizardo yes please 😂
The one thing that stood out to me, once again, is Armand's reaction to Ollie just ripping off the cheese with his hand 😂
I, someone about to graduate highschool, almost spat out my tea when I saw that title. He looks like he’s at least in his twenties and seens vastly more mature than any guy I know. We must need more French genetics in the midwest 😂😅
He wasn't Head Boy at Fulham for nothing... 😊
Armand and Ollie's dynamic is comedy gold lmao
Armand must really like Ollie he loves to look his way for reactions lol
I'm thoroughly enjoying your tour of Northern Italy with Mr. Z. A tour of Britanny with Armand definitely needs to happen. Traveling with native hosts is providing a lot of context along with the fun shenanigans.
Armand seems like an amazing guy. He and his parents should be so proud. 🥰
On a side note, I freaking love it whenever Ollie is on camera. He's a MASTER at entertainment. 😂😂😂
YES to a Brittany trip with Armand as guide! YES a million times yes! And bring Max, because, we miss him. And I want regular episodes of Armand teaching everyday French language to get us ready!
Now Armand experienced the suffering of teaching Ollie a language 🤣🤣 well done you three! We cant wait to see more! Anything with the fulham boys are amazing

it's great to see the individual highschoolers with their own episodes. Please do more. i love to watch.
Somebody needs to tell Armand that Josh is also in the room. Talk about being completely fixated on Ollie....😄
I was thinking this all the time! Thought more commentors would say this
I feel like it's because of Armand's position - he always seems to lean on his right side chair.
But then he was there to teach Ollie French so understandable really.
I noticed it too, but my guess is it's a combination of editing (you can see lots of cuts when you watch it and look for it, so my best guess is it's not that he's just sitting there nonstop staring at ollie but that maybe him constantly flipping back and forth to both was cut down for time issues) and the fact that Ollie is his student and does a lot of the talking. I mean he came prepared with a list etc lol
Honestly, I think t's because there was so much more to correct from Ollie than from Josh.
