right, the adverb "inébranlablement" is much rarer than the adjective it is derived from, "inébranlable", which is still not an everyday word. it does not exactly mean "that cannot change", but rather "that cannot be moved/shaken", and it mostly describes a human attitude, determination/strong will and ability to overcome without flinching any dire situation, opposition or criticism.

you’re the best! so nice to meet all of you guys
I'm French and for me, your accent was the cutest =)
You did great as well Hunter! From my experience, just repeating a word after it's told to you is complicated when you're not super familiar with all the sounds, but you and everyone did great (except with inebranlablement, but nobody uses that word!)
I guess Lucie didn't tell you that "inébranlablement" could also be interpreted as "something that can't be jerked off" lol. But that word is so rare in french we barely even use it (also because of this interpretation)

The funniest part is that "droit" means straight (the direction), right (the direction) it also means law as in "law studies"
Also mean being moraly correct !
And "avoir le droit de" means "having the rights to do something"
That word caused me a lot of hassle when doing driving lessons in French (I'm quebecois, but french is my 2nd language). Having to distinguish between "tout droit" and "à droite" while driving in a busy and noisy environment added a lot of stress.
It does mean both directions, but loi is law, and it also means the other right as in les droits de l'homme et du citoyen like what @micah4973 said
"Droit" has multiple meanings as "right".
- Opposite of left. As a direction, we'd usually say "droite", but as an adjective we'd use "droit" or "droite" depending on the gender of the noun (right hand = main droite, right foot = pied droit).
- Right as an entitlement (you have the right to vote)
- Right angle
The biggest difficulty for you guys (appart from the fact that we don't pronounce all the letters) is that french is not a tonic language. We pronouce the whole word "evenly" I'd say... Which is why the french have a hard time speaking english, because they either ignore the tonic accent inside a word, or put it in the wrong place. ;)
English is stress timed. French is syllable timed.
French people don't have a hard time pronouncing English is a myth, french accent in English is far more close to native accent than anglophone people accent in french
@@TurboGauchisteat least you’re confident
@@TurboGauchiste Mon gars, t'es delusional
Even as a French man, hearing this, I realize just how much fun the Académie Française had when we invented the rules for written French to make it as weird, illogical and confusing as possible... They had centuries of advance to the Monty Python on absurdist humor !
Mais oui ! Meilleur commentaire 😂
Even natives speakers struggle, both at oral and written lol
C'est très très souvent un héritage du passé. Des voyelles qui disparaissent et qui font qu'on ne prononce plus les consonnes qui allaient avec sauf qu'on les garde parce qu'à l'origigne elles faisaient partie du mot.
Au contraire tous les mots, grammaire et conjugaison sont logiques liés à leur origine
un truc cool à faire est de regarder l'étymologie des mots et tout devient beaucoup plus sensé :)
People don't know how to write because they don"t study enough. I could write properly at 7-8 years!
The lady in pink has what it takes to learn easily: confidence, humour, curiosity and strategies ( when she asked about the 2 l, and searched on the basis of " oui" to try and figure out "grenouille". It doesn't work here, exactly because of the 2 ll, like it was in bouilloire, but, she's on the path)
This was tricky, but you can be assured that, if some of are critical over other french people when they fail ( I'm from south-east of France, and believe me, northern french people make fun out of me because my pronunciation not being standard), you have nothing to fear!
Actually, most of us are delighted when a foreigner tries to speak french. No matter if the pronunciation is not totally exact, we'll correct you almost only when we can't understand.
But, we really appreciate the effort, and may find a foreigner's accent lovely. Meanwhile, we are generally ashamed of having bad accent in english ( it's mainly due to the way langages are teached in school, were we mainly learn to read, write , listen. But sometimes, during a one hour lesson, not a single minute is spent on speaking and pronunication), so If you want to communicate with a french person in France, even if you don't speak french, here is the key: you'll have to learn at least ONE sentence.
" Excusez-moi, je suis étranger/ étrangère. Je ne parle pas français. Est-ce que vous parlez anglais" ( I beg your, pardon, I'm foreigner, I don't speak french, Do you speak english?" )
The answer may be yes or no, but at least, asking this in french can really help the person not to feel ashamed about his own english accent.
I'd add "bonjour/bonsoir" before the rest of your suggested sentence. Anglophones, at least Americans, don't always find it necessary to say "hello" first in order to be polite, but in my experience the French prefer that you do.
@@topherjn Oh yes this is so true ! I'm french and sometimes I forget to say "bonjour"... and they don't like it. EVEN IF you say "excusez-moi" (excuse me) to start a conversation, they are to resent that you didn't say hello first. Be warned !
@@topherjn It heavily depends on the région your in, but yeah French people tend to be very polite, contrary to what the popular cliché says :D

La prononciation est variable suivant la nationalité. C'est toujours intéressant d'entendre que la sonorité des syllabes dépend des règles linguistiques que nous avons appris.

To clarify 8:30
*After an i:*
the "ll" is _almost always_ pronounced as a *short i,* like the *y* in "you".
*After any other letter:*
the "ll" is pronounced like a *regular "l".*

@@pradieusmith643 You're wrong as well, one counter-example to what you wrote is "pillage" for example, which is pronunced with a short i. Same thing with "sillage".
@@biggus_blobus8647 Yeah, but aside from exceptions, which are a plague in French, maybe, he forgot to add, that it must be pronounced as the last syllabe of the word like : grenouille, fenouil, fouille, souille, trouille, touille, brouille... si la syllabe /uj/ is the last one, it's always with the /j/, which is named glide...and, after verification, even with your words, pillage is pronounced with the glide /j/

so nice of youuu
Ian is really good. I mean, still has an accent, but completely understandable.
I know that a lot of foreigners struggle with the "in" "en" "on" sounds, but I never thought of how weird "ouille" is for a non native speaker XD
On first read of ‘ouille’ no English speaker would guess it correctly. But once you have heard it, it’s very easy for us to pronounce
You just have to use clues. Ouille... Oui + lle. It's pretty similar to "wheel" in English.
@@johnathanjackson6258 I don't need hints, it's my mother language. But ouille doesn't sound at all like wheel. Doesn't sound like oui either.
Ou-ille
@@cecile436 if a native English speaker were to mimic a French accent and say the word wheel, you don't think it would sound SIMILAR to "ouille"? I didn't say they sound exactly alike, just similar.
@@johnathanjackson6258The way we say "oui" (yes) as "we" is not a correct rule in any word with a double L afterwards. Ouille is pronounced like 'Boo! Yellow' said quickly if you cut the B and ellow sounds. It's OO + Y, not W + EE + L
Ouille = Oo Y (no expiration at all at the beginning, no W sound, with Ye sound, like in yellow, yoga)
Ouistiti = Westete (weesteetee but very short ee), with the W sound and the 'i' letter pronounced so a lot more similar to wheel
We are used to hear people pronuncing grenouille 'gren-wheel' so we would get it, but it's incorrect. Like if I say pillow "pie yo", or speaker like "spiky". It would be similar too, but still wrong.
0:30 Does anyone know that the French girl actually said "nice ass" instead of "a lot" 😂
i noticed
I'm an anglophone and I didn't catch on. I thought the way she pronounced the "ou" in "beaucoup" was weird but I didn't know the "l" in "cul" is silent 😆.
“beau cul” 😭
ahaha because he said that he was always making mistakes between beaucoup (a lot) and beau cul (nice ass) when he was pronouncing it but it got edited out ahah so it looks like i just came up with it ahah
@@ricartlu Yeah, it looks like they edit out certain parts to create jokes for kicks.
French: written and spoken are two different languages, but at least there are fixed rules.
English: sometimes you pronounce letters in a way, sometimes in another. No rules just randomly.
Bro wanted to get hit hard but his knowledge of French betrayed him 😂
0:54 aaand no, french fries are from France. It's a bit complicated. The idea is from France, the overall thing is. Simply, the current recipe used around tbe world is from Belgium. Belgians decided that the potatoes had to be cut in a specific shape, fried twice, with duck grease (or some animal oil)
Beef Fat*. But yes. Fries are quite the European story. The french started fryng potatoes as street food. A german guy like the concept, opened an eatery in Brussels selling that exclusively, fried in duck fat. Belgians liked it but were "could be better". So they perfected it with a cheaper, more availlable type of grease: "blanc de boeuf".
Yes and no. American troops discovered the "french fries" in french-speaking Belgium. So actually if we're talking where the term french fries originates from, it's from a mistake/misconception by American soldiers that did not distinguish the language from the nationality of the dish.
Now as you said, fried potatoes might be a french invention to start with (although nothing's actually for certain, but as far as we know, it's the definite origin) but yeah, the way the recipe is done is in the Belgian style.
So when all is said and done, it should be called belgian fries because the french fries use the belgian receipe. Saying french fries are from France is like saying the french have also discovered the potatoe to begin with. Or like saying cavemen invented french fries because they discovered fire and how to cook food.
@@Zedem0n or we can just call them fries :D
I'd say common fries are not Belgian fries BECAUSE Belgian fries are made with fat and not oil
@@Zedem0n Not at all, it was the Parisians who invented fries, the Belgians made it a traditional dish by doing it in a particular way, but the Americans do not make them at all like the Belgians. To say that fries are Belgian would be equivalent to saying that the Japanese invented the car because you drive a Toyota when it is a European invention.
The french language is a diplomatic language because of the softness ( not aggressive for the ear and very calming ) , rich vocabulary, and sensual .... French like Italian are sexy languages when spoken at a slow rythm
Lol, no
@@AmokBRlol, yes
@@joshsatian9208 That’s not at all the reason it’s the diplomatic language
French isn't a "diplomatic" language anymore. It was the language of the courts of Europe during the Middle-Ages because France was the cultural powerhouse of the continent. Followed closely by "Italian" (It's version of the time) because of the Renaissance and the well regarded universities in the North of today's Italy. French retook again a bit of Fame in erudite circles with the Lumières. French hasn't been a "Lingua Franca" since shortly after the Revolution.
@@k.v.7681 It is still a diplomatic language because it is an official language in a lot of international organisations so by definition it is a diplomatic language even if it not as used as english.

The interesting thing is that the difficulty mostly comes from the spelling. Each langage has its ways of writing sounds. If you forget about the spelling and just listen to the word itself, it's actually easier.
Meh, unlike English, French pronunciation is consistent. You can read a word right even if you've never seen it before. You just have to know how letters work together to form sounds.
@@Eniramoi Not really, there are many exceptions in French. It's far from as difficult as English of course though.
@@groudonvert7286 in terms of how words read there's not that many exceptions. I can't even think of a single one right now. Oh or maybe just persil and fusil and the fact the final L isn't pronounced whereas it is in hôpital.
@@Eniramoi Well persil is an exception ahah. The pronounciation of the final L depends on where we come from. In my case, I pronounce it.
One example I have in mind are the words finishing with "ent". The pronouncication highly depends if it's a verb or an adverb.
@@groudonvert7286 the pronunciation depending on whether it's a verb or an adjective doesn't make it an exception, since there's a clear rule: the -ent ending is silent if it's a verb (ils content) but not if it's an adjective (il est content)
It's the same in English with "record" depending on if it's a verb or a noun the pronunciation slightly changes

exactly, it got just exported to belgium and was popular there
and on top of that the recipees are not the same. french fries are thin and crispy. and belgian fries are thicker and not crispy.

French is a challenging language to learn, whether it be the grammar or its pronunciation. No wonder why French is the 5th hardest language to learn in the world. But I guess teaching my students English pronunciation is a difficult task as well. Most of them struggle with the R's and TH's, not ot mention the short vowel system vs. long vs diphthongs.
C'est un pure délice de pouvoir tout comprendre
Stop saying fries are Belgian. It has been proven that they are French. Food historian Pierre Leclerc, a Belgian, gives the origin of French fries. "It is clear that the fried potato was invented at the beginning of the 19th century in Paris", he explains to the media Brut. "It was born in the Parisian street, it was born in the hands of the Parisian street fry vendors. And it was they who made the fried potato the popular emblematic Parisian dish of the 19th century before this fries be exported to Belgium. So it is clear that the fries are of French origin".
Oh jesus as a french newbie getting almost all of these words made me feel so satisfied
Let's say Jesus only when we pray. Have a lovely day. Take care.
Ian is impressive. He even successfully pronounced inebranlablement which is very difficult according to me. the first "e" is é but there's no accent because there are two consonants just after it.
Mille-feuille is really hard too. In mille we pronounce "ll" like "l" but in feuille it's kind of like "y"....
As a native french speaker it sounds absolutely easy but most of us are not able to explain why like the frenchgirl in this video ! But I promise, there are official rules lol ! (However they are very complicated. For example the word "donc" (which means therefore) was modified a few weeks ago. It's grammatical class isn't the same anymore 🤣. In fact, the people who decided to change that debated and finally thought that it was more logical that way...
Sorry about my english skills (obvisouly, I'm French !). If sth isn't correct please don't hesitate to tell me.
he's so hot I agree

I swear the guy on the right is among us, he's so close everytime, either hidden french or he's learning the language haha ! Was fun
About Grenouille, "ill" in french is like "y"
"Grenouye" will have the exact same pronunciation.
I love this kind of video with French pronunciation or testing our food, liek the cheese, I'd love being in it and make taste our specialities to others, that's awesome (also trying world food would be great !)
"Inebranlablement"... The root is the verb "ébranler" (to shake) "ebranlable" is the adjective "shakable".... "ebranlablement" is the adverb "Shakably".... The négation form is "Inebranlablement" (unshakably).
As French speakers. Let me tell you this, speaking French is quite hard for beginners.
I’m frensh and we have difficult for grammar to write and oral sometimes
But not as much as writing it correctly.

omg it was deeply satisfying to see them struggle this hard since some americans are like yeah french is like baguette croissant and they can't even pronounce croissant correctly
Chelsea is such an icon LOL
As a french, I can't prononce properly "Bouilloire", I prononce it like "Bouilleloire" xD
For the "ill" sound they are struggling with it's pronounced very much like the "y" in young, you, yellow, crayon. In grenouille the -ouille sound is basically like saying you but reversing the sounds like "ou-y" it's not an order English speaking people are used to using so it can take some mouth gymnastics.
There are however quite a few exceptions where those letters are pronounced "il" as in "ee-L". These exceptions include the number 1 thousand which is in the word "mille-feuille" that they tried to pronounce here and any other word related to mille such as millionaire.
Other exceptions if I remember my 1st grade reading lessons in France from 25 years ago include: chinchilla (loved that word as a kid), ville ("town" and all related words such as village), all words starting in ill- (illusion), all words ending in -illaire (capillaire), tranquille (and related words), a bunch of random medical terms (pénicilline...), and some names of places and people (Lilles, Achilles...)... and others I've surely forgotten!
And there is as far as I remember no rule for when exceptions apply. It's one of those cases where you just have to try and hope for the best. As the words above are the exceptions you'll have a higher chance of success pronouncing it as "Y".
T’as de l’inspi
Facts : french fries are really from France not belgium...they started at "pont neuf" in paris...pure French street foodt here, then a German dude learn it in France and then go to belgium and open this business there. If you compare the dates France are the first since Mister Partmentier brings potatoes in FRance from latin america. Yes belgium started yo have a big culture about it but everything really started in France. So yep, Americans are totally right when they call it " French fries "
"Inebranlablement" is legal term for something that is Irrevocable. Like a contract or a fundamental law.
And then you have Québec who comes along and throws a wrench in everything to confuse everyone with our pronunciation.

As a French person. It has been proven that French fries are actualy. French.
Yep. Belgium might have made it into a religion. And that's probably where you would find the bestquality of fries in the world.
That doesn't mean they invented it.
For a very long time I knew French invented the concept of frying potato. But I thought the Belgian invented the stick shape.
Well I was wrong. It's all French.
But again, the Belgian know the best popatoes to use for fries. They cut them in a really specific way'using either the best oil possible beef fat for the frying. Ect ect.
But French fries's name actualy does not lie to you.
French seems hard, a word has a lot of letters but they don't pronounce most of them, Portuguese, specially from Brazil, it is way easier because we pronounce it the way it is written unless it is a foreign word
It's not really that hard, because there are rules for which letters are pronounced and which are silent, so once you learn the rules, you know how to pronounce almost any French word, even ones you've never seen before. And the same combination of letters is (almost) always pronounced the same, so you always know how to pronounce endings like -eaux, -ière, -ine etc.
"most of them" 😂
INÉBRANLABLEMENT
Inébrolablémo
"He's not French but sounds right"
As a french I had a good laugh
Actually French fries are from France. The Belgian picked up on the trend in the early 20th century and brought it home. Same with chocolate ;-)
Difference between English and french, is in french there are masculine and feminine for each word . For the MASCULINE form like (Droit) the last consonant is never pronounced. To pronounce the last consonant you need an E and that means that the word is feminin. Example For "Port" pronounce POR because masuline, But for "Porte" with "e" pronounce the last T. Porte is pronounced like Port in english
As a French person I can tell you im so satisfied to see people struggling with my language 😅

I don't care, Ian is French. His prenounciation was way too good 😭
Not french maybe he is from Québec
Hello , fun video. I am a french and i guarantee you, i never heard a french guy say in a conversation this word at 8:51 "inebranlablement". Thanks for sharing and don't stop having fun.
Exactly. It's a word that technically exists and that we can understand because it's how adverbs are made from adjectives, but I've never heard or read it anywhere.
Someone a bit cultured would eventually say "inébranlable" at least a few times in his life.
@@behemoth8399 Inébranlable yes, but not the word inébranlablement !
I never though that french could be hard to prununciate. The video was pretty fun and really cute. ❤
I'm french, I admit learn english for a french is easier that the reverse ^^
Chelsea is the bravest, great energy. Ian defo has some experience with the language. The other two girls made absolutely ZERO effort LOL.
Whoever edits these videos. If mics are not very loud, please lower the foreground music volume to background.
Je regarde comme si je savais pas prononcer les mot😂
BAHAHAHAH LA MÊME
Imagine if one of the words would have been "anticonstitutionnellement"
They would have been doomed 💀
As a french, I get it that's it's a difficult language... there is so many rules.... even when you are born in France you don't know all the rules. At least we will get the pronunciation okay, but the writing sometimes... it's hard. If you don't write everyday, you forget some rules.
Some English speakers here complaining about the French not speaking all the letters, that’s real irony for you.
8:52 That's inÉbranlablement with a É not a E
