    As a native French speaker who has worked with Americans for many years (now retired), seeing them struggle to learn French, I realized how lucky I am to be born speaking that language, not having to learn it as a foreign language. I certainly do not deny my culture, and French might be a beautiful language but it's definitely not an easy one. The most difficult thing for foreigners probably; spoken French just doesn't seem to match written French. And the verbrs, our conjugations are terrible; quite frankly we native French speakers don't even use our verbs correctly in our everyday life, we tend to use a simplified version (who still uses past subjonctive these days?).

      Although it’s hard,I find French is more elegant than English.

    Fun Fact:
    "ne .. pas" actually means "not a step". The word "step" has become a grammatical feature and is on it`s way to replace "not". So in contemporary french people actually say "I eat step today" or "I like step rock music".

    Perhaps French is that kid that got an assignment to make a language in a month and he spent most of that month trying to make it sound as great and beautiful as possible with all the conjugations and silent letters but then crams the development of grammatical logic into the final week of the month and then we get this.

      French verb tenses are definitely complex! It takes a lot of exposure to the language and practice to get used to them 👍🏻

      Everytime I hear of French, I wanna wage war onto France for having such a complex and irritating Language, and slap the Germans for agreeing to merge their language with the enormous pile of shit that is French when making English

    As a Quebecois who has studied, worked in Canada and France my advice is ‘give up’. Just kidding. Almost nobody ever learns to be fluid in French from scratch. However, we have only respect for those who struggle and do their best. Don’t get bogged down in genders, tenses, etc. Just ‘speak’ and we can sort it out. You will improve dramatically. With more immigrants and non native speakers in France your ‘broken French’ is less broken than you might think.

    Because of british rule, english became familiar language in so many countries. That's why we can communicate with so many country people. Otherwise we couldn't understand each other

    About grammatical gender, french is nothing unusual. Is't there is all latin language, most of them are worst than french because they vary in gender AND number. It's there also in most german language wich also have neutral gender to add to the confusion. English is the exception here. Not the other way around.
