This was so much fun et trop drôle ! Merci !
AMERICO CASTILLO ARE YOU VERY ANGRY AND ANNOYED?
Well I'm French, so that was easy x)
Me too x)
Loki AV lol that's hardly old French and they chose with ouille or aille on purpose cuz there is 90% chances they wont pronounce it right
At first I was like "Damn that blonde woman is pretty good!" until I realised she's the one who says the true pronouciation at the end. -_-'
Same :')
Umm, the blonde gal isn't doing the right pronunciations the whole time XD
It's the brunette woman with the red lipstick. In addition to pronouncing it correctly, she's also the last person to say the word each time before they start a new word!
Yes, but she hasn't got brown hair... Personnally, I was talking about her. The one who is doing the right prononciation.
And I know who is doing the right pronunciation, I'm French so that's easy to know 😂
Without your comment I wouldn't ve understand this, really thought she was so good at french
I've got em all right, but i'm french.
Well done!
Thanks!

Meryem Alkan r/thatsthejoke
My brain stopped for a few seconds there 😂
J'etais tres confus pour un moment
I was so proud to know the pronunciation of my own language, wtf is wrong with me ? :D
Pour info en anglais y a pas d'espace avant le "?", le "!" et le ":" :)
si t'apprends tes leçons tu sauras qu'il y a un bien un espace entre ":" "?" et "!"
p.s. je parlais à Jésus
Jesus Issou Bah moi je mets toujours des espaces avec mes ponctuations ._. Genre Salut ! Ou comment ça va ? Par contre je mets pas d'espaces avec le point.
Oui c'est bien ça ! Quand c'est une ponctuation avec deux éléments genre ; : ! ? il y a un espace avant (et après).
"je m'appelle Marion et je suis française"
subtitled
"Mario is a sausage"
Evan9266 I'm dead WTF are those subtitles X)
Le pire c'est que c'est vrai! Pourquoi j'ai du descendre si bas pour voir ce commentaire?! XD

As a French person : this is very fun to watch :')
I realise right now how French can be tricky !
Keep it up guys !! :)
Thanks, Kay!
Kay Cohen you can't imagine it. Well, if you are Italian (like me) the pronounciation is the only hard part (really, the grammar is nearly the same and very many words are similare). But it is a VERY hard part
I'm french and in med school, there is a lot of native italians who came to pass the competitive exams of first year medecine, and they are so damn good at french !!! One of them became a good friend and she speaks fluently french english and of course italian
Kay Cohen Hi ! I am french and I realise that it is so cute ahah
Kay Cohen I'm French, and it's very funny !
houx = holly
œil = eye
quincaillerie = hardware store
tilleul = lime tree
bredouille = empty-handed
groin = snout (of a pig or a boar)
coquelicot = poppy
yeux = eyes (yes, the plural form of "œil")
œuf = egg
saperlipopette = something like "good heavens!" or even "golly gosh!" (it's a super old and outdated swear word that is now considered funny rather than vulgar)
luluxoria Est-tu francais, oh est ce que les definitions dans une dictionnaire?
Oui je suis française :) I'm also a student in translation studies but some of the words here were rather tricky since they don't have actual equivalents in English
luluxoria Thank you for the english people 😀
Merci :)
luluxoria Pour "Houx" est-ce que ce serait pas plutôt "mistletoe" ? :)
No one noticed they’re all wearing the same thing?
It's on purpose ! They are all wearing a "marinière", which is a cliché related to France ^^
I didn't notice because of the different background colors lol
sabaa alzuad
waaaaiiit i just noticed thaaat !!
Because they want to make fun about french ppl like me
sabaa alzuad I didn't notice xD
And the conclusion is: Only french people can speak french.
Jorge Gonçalves EXEPT PAUL TAYLOR ;p !
No.. even French people can't speak it properly.
English people complain about the there/their, but us, French people, complain about the -er/é, the doubled letters, the accents, the silent letters, the random spelling of certain words, all of the grammatical rules and most importantly, the oral form of the language mixing with the written form of the language.
Zbeub zbeub
Jorge Gonçalves Ça veut dire zizi ... pardon j'ai pas pu m'en empêcher XD

YEET! ARMY

ARMY are everyywere ❤️😂
The turkish guy actually did a pretty good job
The Turkish guy did pretty well !
That's even odd : he mixes sounds but has no accent at all.
Turks have a lot of french based word in their language, which is probably why he had an easier time saying them
English has 50% of french based word and England was a major french speaking and writing country during Middle Ages.
True, but the thing is, in turkish we write as we pronounce. You obviosuly don't do that in french
Of course, or else it would be too simple XD
je propose dégingandé, capharnaüm, septentrional, cuillère et bien sur amphigouri galimatiasante, hendyadin ou encore " il a bu un verre après être aller changer un de ces verres, vers où on va avec ce drôle de vers " métonymie synecdotique donc à valeur pléonastique ouvrant en grand les portes de la polysémie. ( pendant ce temps je galère juste avec thought, tough et though )
Sotte, tasse, zoo, je pense que c'est les mots qui se rapprochent le plus en Français... Même si c'était plutôt pour troll qu'une réelle difficulté j'imagine

Dick Johnson You think so?
Dick Johnson marry me
@@TheFirstGoomba so what Shawn
The turkish guy is very good. I had some turkish friends during Erasmus and they were quite good also. They told me that few words are very similar.
So cute to hear them say "Saperlipopette"
Bordel de merde.

Iterative non

pls do ;)
yeesss
Duff Clem omfg that's not true 😂😂😂😂😂
HE LOOKS LIKE MY LA TEACHER, I'M DEAD 😂 except my teacher has blonde hair and his eyes are blue 😂
French language spelling is well reformed. There are some tricky areas like silent letters in the end of words, and liaisons when reading sentences. However, once you know the rules, you can read french words with high accuracy.
Have I been pronouncing yeux wrong my whole life!?
- French Canadian
lol there is no "r" at the end of yeux
Prononcé sans le mot "les" devant "yeux" comme dans "les yeux", tu n'as pas besoin de faire la liaison être le "s" et le "y" qui donnerait "les (z)yieux"
Hope that was clear :)
-Also French Canadian
Jean Lafrance, ah thanks I am also, French Canadian! But I suck 😂
C'est rare qu'on dit uniquement "yeux". D'habitude c'est les yeux, mes yeux etc. Ainsi la liason "(z)yeu"
yes.
Next time: "anticonstitutionnellement" 😂 longest french word, good luck!
Lolo Pomelos ya beaucoup plus long mais pas dans le dictionnaire

si tes français et que t'es là, tu devrais vraiment reconsiderer ta vie 😂
KRROW CLOUD wow wow wow tu te calmes ne me juge pas 😄
Reconsidérer sa vie devrait être un travail à plein temps
Sérieux ? et toi donc pour faire ce commentaire comment tu as fais ?
sinon bon troll xD
je suis canadien et toc 😌 en vrai jetais en pleine reconsidération de vie quand j'ai commenté ça 😓😂
Moi non plus je ne suis pas français mais francophone...le titre aguicheur a eu raison de moi ^^ en tout cas j’espère que tu auras trouvé ta nouvelle voie (d'une façon ou d'une autre on se cherche tous...je pense que c'est la période)
"The French language is systematically unphonetic. The English language is unsystematically unphonetic."
Where do you think English got it from? I mean French influenced English highly.
Turkish guy is soooo cute ! I can teach you french whenever you want

Les gens qui parlent français, essayez de comprendre le mot qu'ils disent sans le regarder, juste en écoutant. C'est drôle
Mdr j'etude le francais et je ne comprends pas comment on peut prononcer les mots si vites!!
Lord Petyr Littlefinger Baelish on y arrive avec de l'entraînement ! Même moi qui suis française j'ai du mal avec certains mots ;)
Elisa DROSZEWSKI trop tard :/
Juste à force de le répéter ça vient tout seul :)
le secret de la bonne prononciation avec le francais est de parler avec la bouche et la langue et non avec la gorge comme l'anglais. je trouve que l'anglais se prononce comme on chante avec la gorge et l'estomac alors que le francais n'est que bucal.
The turkish guy is hot, at least I believe he is turkish
Alice Valentine Yes he is 😊
Mama We All Go To Hell *play G note*
That is what he said (and also I agree)
Alice Valentine He is Turkish. I am Turkish. And he said "I'm Kutay, I'm from Turkey" in Turkish
Are you really calling someone named Alice Valentine a faggot ? Don't just look at the picture...
Also, as a french, I will add that he was the best at pronounciation. He clearly had some knowledge of french beforehand. Contrast with the italian guy, a country which has a border with France and a language with the same roots, but is among the worst here...
Turkish guy is bae....
유툽사람 I think so!

Comme si toi tu sais tres bien parler anglais -_-
The Turkish guy is SOOOO CUTE 😍😍😍
I'm in love with the Turkish guy, please give him my number. Thank you.
Ur not the only one x)
ahah exactly what I was thinking
me too hahah
Tamago Whaaat, which one ?
Matthias Le Men The one with the curly hair and without a beard
I can't imagine how painful it must be to learn French. As a native speaker I don't realize how hard it is. Good luck to all those who are trying to learn French 👍🔥
Vinny20 it’s actually relatively easy
@@kaiahmarie5896 I'm glad to hear that! I'm guessing it depends on what languages you already speak
daaaaaaamn , the turkish guy 😍😍
I wish you'd tell them the translation right after, it'd be cool to see their reaction
Hearing English speakers say "saperlipopette" is really hilarious, especially when you know that it is an old cuss word, equivalent to "Good heavens"
le plus dur bien sur : Congolexicomatisation
trés bonne réf!!
Même si je suis français j'ai du mal a prononcer ce foutu mot ! Honte à la personne qui a inventé ce mot
That's just some long word, but it's not that hard to pronounce. 'Quincaillerie' is much harder for the foreigner, because he would probably not know how to pronounce 'uin' and 'aille'.
celle des lois du marché?
Mais oui c'est clair! xD
Why is nobody talking about the fact that they are all wearing the same sweater?
p.s. The Turskish guy wore it best - this is not up for debate! 😂
OMG the French girl's voice *____*
Niness Dobrev She isn't french
She's french
Niness Dobrev Yes but her voice is quite exaggerated. Sounds like a stilted Parisian accent, classic white girl. It sounds stereotypical but it's true. I know what I'm talking about (I'm french)
Non je trouve pas qu'elle exagére
Juliette Antoni moi non plus je trouve pas qu'elle exagère
le summum c'est anticonstitutionnellement et acide désoxyribonucléique 😂😂
Une fille in love forever Je préfère ADN
apopathodiaphulatophobie lui est dure même pour les francais
Et quand est-il de l'acide acétylsalicylique ?
acide désoxyribonucléique = desoxyribonucleic acid
acide acétylsalicylique = acetylsalicylic acid
Donc finalement c'est pas si dur que ça vu que ce sont des DCI (Dénomination Commune Internationale) :)
Le sterno-cléido-mastoïdien (un des muscles du cou, il me semble). Pas mal non plus dans le genre :)

M'enfin faut expliquer aux gens sinon y comprennent rien quoi.
Yes I can...because I'm french .___.

I definitely could help for these words... :)

Damien S pom pom pom pom pom pom
The 10 words list translated :
Houx = Holly
œil = eye (singular)
Quincaillerie = Hardware store
Tilleul = Linden tree
Bredouille = stuttering/mumbling/coming back empty handed
Groin = pig snout
Coquelicot = Poppy
Yeux = eyes (plural)
œuf = egg (singular)
saperlipopette = goodness me! (very outdated)
actually:
tilleul: linden tree
bredouille: empty-handed
Ooh, thanks!
"bredouille" has two meanings :
- "rentrer bredouille" means empty-handed
- "il bredouille" means he mumbles
Alex dH oh right ! sorry i had momentarily forgotten about the other use
Interesting. Quincaillerie sounds a lot like "quinquilharia", a word in Portuguese. Here, it means something old and cheap, useless.

Je suis trop douée j'ai tout bien prononcé😂😂
Shelley Latchmea c'est bien tu vas pouvoir passer en CE1 :-)
The Turkish guy (who did so well) has a "je-ne-sais-quoi" of Hugh Grant.
I fell in love with the turkish guy (or at least I assume that he's turkish)
Julia Maeve haha i dont know which one are u talking about but yes he is kutay and Turkish congrats✌✌✌
i need to know who the first guy is and if he is single... for research purposes
Rena Adlyn kutay, from turkey lol
Do you mean the italian guy?
Agathe Avezou he said *he is turkish and his name is kutay* in turkish at the and of the video.
I'm so sad I'm only getting a few seconds in my entire life of that breathtaking Turkish guy
The turkish guy was pretty good at this !
We're kinda good with languages I guess :p
Güney I'm french but my family's from turkey (turkçem çok kötü) and honestly there's not that many bilingual ppl in turkey, I was just saying that he was good at pronouncing the languages ^^
Well I don't know about that, I'm Turkish and I speak 3 languages fluently, I have several members of my Family in France, Germany and Turkey who speak several languages too, but I guess they're more bilingual when living abroad, which is the case of many Turks (in Germany, France, Switzerland mainly), so I don't know about that ;)
Turkish and can speak 4 languages fluently .There is more bilingual people than you ever thought in Turkey. Don't worry xD
-and his pronunciation is very good
There is a lot of people who is bilingual in Turkey! Like me, I can speak 4 languages fluenty. And he is good at it!
0:49 the cutest "oh shit" =)
wow!!! the Turkish guy was good
After 2 minutes I noticed they were all wearing the same shirt
why french like to add letters that they don't pronounce
Great question!
oldcowbb Even we don't know xD
I think it used to be pronounced, but you can say the same about english, I mean Daughter, read (in past)
It's because of the roots of the words; the Etymology because it was Latin's or Greek's words
i know "kn" in english is pronounced with the k sound in old english, it is hard to pronounce so it's dropped over time, and some greek origin word has consonant that is impossible to pronounce in english. but as i know french has a lot more silent word than english, like you have to silent some syllable for every word.
p.s. i have little if any knowledge in french. Maybe i'm just really biased.
Nice video :-) But if it's meant to educate, it would be a good idea to show the written version a bit longer (perhaps throughout the whole part where people try to guess its pronunciation and especially when it's pronounced the right way), so people can really make the connection between the written and spoken component.

I pronounced them all right- three years of French lessons seems to have paid off!
I am an english speaker who took french for four years and so it is interesting to go into the comments and read all of the french, especially when people don't spell words correctly, and then it is like "Is this a new word that I don't know, or is this just 'bien' spelled wrong?' XD

Va regarder la "French people try to pronounce English words"
C'est marrant de voir des autres en galère sur des mots français ! x) Surtout sur des mots comme œuf ou œil qui sont compliqués à prononcer pour eux qui n'ont pas ça.

Bah en fait si..
The guy who looks like Geraint Thomas (I'm guessing he's Turkish?) has impeccable enunciation, despite his mistakes. I would listen to him speak all day.
I'm French,i was like:

as a french: please, nobody is wearing a sailor shirt in france ...
J'en porte, et je te jure que si, il y en a x)
Ouais... Jean-Paul Gaultier...
Ca dépend surtout des endroit. Je suis bordelais, j'en vois très rarement, mais une fois, je suis allé à paris, et y'en avait quand même quelques uns
il y en a bien sûre mais comme il y en a a NY ou au japon, JP Gautier a beau faire des tenues marinières, ça fait bien longtemps que la france n'est plus LE pays de la marinière
c'est un cliché un peu bête maintenant je trouve
les autres ok je comprends mais celui ci n'a plus raison d'être
C'est juste un cliché associé à Brigitte Bardot. Et ça n'est pas méchant, c'est comme le cliché des anglais en tweed ou des japonais en kimono.
Turkish guy's accent was surprisingly flawless, even if the words were not said correctly... weird :p
Fascinating! How about keeping each word on screen all the time in the lower third?
