The serbian girl was a stunner ❤ Both in looks and attitude. That serbian woman for you. Beautif, elegant, mind seem to be a little reserved at first, but once you crack them, they're surpsisingly openminded
To the question: “What nation do you think contributed the most to the defeat of Germany in 1945?” - 54% of French respondents in 2015 answered: The United States. - May 1945, 57% answered: the USSR, the Americans were only mentioned by 20% of French people. American soft power has done a good job 😅
yeah it's crazy. They came at end of the war and lost about 200k soldier. USSR fought for 6 years and lost 30M people. It was a single front for most of the war.
@@hounamao7140 They also destroyed entire cities in they're path. My grandmother passed her life afraid of bombarding because of that... Also, going out at night was more dangerous under American supervision then when Nazis where they're.
@@eliroberts1762 USSR went to war in 1941 they were under direct attack by the Nazi. USA only waged war. They were not in Europe nor in any battle against the Nazi in 1941. They didn't do much before the Normandy invasion in 1944. They joined the war in 1941 because of Japan and mostly held the war there on the pacific ocean. They did very few interventions in Europe. And it was mostly in Italy (1943).
The reason a lot of french ppl rejected the interview i think is linked to the recent tik tok trends there that has been with street interviews especially in Chatelet (the place you're filmin in), some interviewers asks dumb question for tik tok stats and it's been a trend for like recent years in particular on tik tok, so i think that is why some of them act cold. But i guess this recent trend with street interviews is not only limited to France, you can see this phenomenon internationally on the internet
Je suis heureuse que j’ai apprendais Français, parce que les questions simple comme cette son plus extraordinaire dans la langue de les Francophones (je suis hollandais et j’etais très fatiques de comprendre pas eux, ça est ma raison pour apprendre la) Shout a tout les Francophones ici!
Which aren't representative either. But we don't hate them.that being said, our language doesn't mistake vehement and loud arguments for fights.We call it a family dinner.
I wish that Americans would pay a little more attention to the fact that, when they are in another country, it helps to attempt to speak the language spoken in that country. Your stock goes up when you don't expect that others will know English.
Me not knowing how to speak their language does not mean a expect them to know mine. I would assume I'd have a very hard time getting things without knowing at least the basics.
Great video. Very impressive language skills! Loved hearing what people have to say about Americans. I'm in Pimsleur French 4 right now. It's been ok for me because I studied 8 years of French more than 40 years ago. But mon mari - oh-la-la. It's a difficult program for someone who has zero familiarity with the language. Thanks again for the "people on the street" interviews!
I'm French and I love the US. The Paris population is absolutely NOT representative of the French people, the same way that the New York population does not represent the US. You need to travel a bit more and venture to meet the real French population in the rest of the country.
I agree I live in France for 3 months I’m from New York myself first French people I met were in Paris and I thought the rumors must be trust then I left Paris and went to Lille and was 100% different
Il n' y a vraiment pas de quoi être fier, avoir comme droit d' assassiner des bébés inscrit dans la constitution de son pays! Pauvre France! Tous ceux qui ont contribué à cette horreur et ceux qui s' en réjouissent sont bien contents que leurs mères ne les aient pas avortés! Pourquoi souhaiter que d'autres personnes soient avortés? Nonsense et méchanceté gratuite! 😢
I live in NYC, and see and here loads of French speakers everyday, and they're never loud. I make that observation upon 25 years as a New Yorker, not a tourist.
We eat too much, we drink too much, we talk too much, we try to fit everything in one weekend because we work too much. We are basically too much. But that is what makes us unique to other countries. From what I gather they just think we are all like a bit too much; but they find us kinda fun to hang out with sometimes if to just make fun of us and we don't mind!
I asked a French man in the Brittany area if he hated Americans because he kept criticizing me. He was a friend of a friend of mine and we were all out just having a good time. I was sitting there minding my own business. His response to me was,we don’t even like other French people. I’ll never forget that.
People have to understand that french and american people are FAMILY : sometimes you love each other but sometimles you like to fight, but at the end, we're family 🙂
Salut d'un Croate francophone. En ouvrant la vidéo, je ne m'attendais pas à croiser un Américain parlant ma langue maternelle avec une Serbe en plein Paris. C'est drôle !
Bonjour! Thank you for an excellent video! France offers so much more than America. The sense of community, perhaps because there are plazas, inviting dialogue?. America has processed food with additives causing a change in metabolism, which we did not feel when we were in Ukraine, Poland, and Estonia last year. I am a retired American educator. We helped a new school open in Lviv, then spent 6 weeks in Krakow; we're in Tallinn for a month before heading back to Oregon. My wife and I sold our Portland condo and we are moving to France in January. Living in France has several significant advantages: climate, healthcare, culture, and infrastructure. Merci!! Dean and Cindy.
I think it's because of Irak and we (french) said no to do war with them so yeah now we are called like "coward" you know but maybe not just a guess and I think they know for mostly just Parisian and not really the other part of the France and yeah to be honest (as a French here) Parisian are a bit to cold with people and busy all the time so yeah maybe (if any American can explain if im wrong or not i wanna know too why we are "hated" ?)
We don't. Well, I don't. I hope to live there one day. but the old stereotypes about the French being cowards because of WW II and Iraq are still around. I would ignore that.
I lived in Paris for 6 months and I got hassled twice for being American but I think it was more about being a tourist. Foreigners have to realize that Paris is FULL OF TOURISTS and it must be overwhelming for locals sometimes. Most people speak English because even if you’re from Europe, English will be the common language.
@@drefhill lmao tf are you saying french kiss on the cheeks to greet instead of fake hugs. White american are tight ass people who dont even kiss on the streets, french are mediterranean and way more warmer than white americans. Italian/Spanish are even warmer.
I went to Paris, Nice and a few other places in France many years ago. The only rude person I had an encounter with wasn't French. At the time I spoke very basic French, so possibly me attempting to speak the language, even very rudimentary was shown as a sign of respect and I had a great experience. The same basic thing happened to me when I was in Montreal and Quebec City.
I'm French, and I love the US and American people. I love their culture, traditions and creativity in music and arts in general. And my family and friends do too. I don't know why people think we hate Americans, we really don't ☺
Il est surtout naïf, tous les pays s'espionnent, et le gouvernement américain a fait bien pire qu'espionner les dirigeants français lol. Comme disait Mitterrand "La France ne le sait pas, mais nous sommes en guerre avec l'Amérique. Oui, une guerre permanente, une guerre vitale, une guerre économique, une guerre sans mort apparemment. Oui, ils sont très durs les Américains, ils sont voraces, ils veulent un pouvoir sans partage sur le monde. C’est une guerre inconnue, une guerre permanente, sans mort apparemment et pourtant une guerre à mort."
Excellent vlog. I’m happy to hear the French like Americans and many wish to visit the United States. It’s refreshing because I am a U.S. Marine and understand the French in Château-Thierry, love U.S. Marines for fighting like “Devil Dogs” against the Germans during WWI. In Normandy, Americans are treated warmly for what Americans boys did at Omaha beach…the beaches
After traveling I realized that Americans are some of the most generous and kind people in the world. You can start a conversation with anyone in America and it will be a good one. the same cannot be said for many countries in Europe. Definitely depends on what state you're in though. I found the French to be some of the funnest around. Heaps of fun to be had once they realize you are not like the stereotypical American
I wish my spoken English was as good as the Serbian girl's French. Her accent is almost perfect. I am French and the controversy over embassies having intelligence and spying services has always made me laugh. I think this reaction was an act, only the most disconnected people from reality took it at face value and continue to ignore that each country has its own spy and intelligence service, including in friendly countries.
Merci pour votre honnêteté et votre expérience. The French i guess they do not hate: they maybe don't care... maybe sometimes we forget about your existence. What's wrong with that. But for having been there, i know you're kind. So, i'd say your kindness is underrated. Well keep on
I see the french as indifferent. My experience in Paris in 1998 as a 20 year old speaking almost no French and having 0$ to my name was that nobody was about to harm me, I survived ok by hopping turnstyles and snatching a carrot or two from outdoor vendors without so much as being chased and slept outside in the park with no bother, but they certainly weren’t trying to help me either, not even at the embassy they just kept sending me to other offices across the city knowing I was on foot. This went on for about a week til I could get ahold of my bank in Oregon and find out why my card was frozen. No one gave me a dime.
I think French and Americans have a lot in common in many ways. They are proud of their countries (usually) and proud of how influential their culture has been for the rest of the world. I wish people thought of that more often! We need to respect and support our allies. That doesn't mean we can't find other people annoying or tease other people, but remember everyone's different and different doesn't mean bad.
C’est pas plutôt les Américains qui aiment pas les Français ou le français tout court ? Tellement certain d’eux aiment se moquer de la langue française 😂

Thank you, great video :) But also i understand because you talked in different languages... FYI I´m learning my third languange because i would love to be poliglot :)
En tant quee français j'aurais adoré pouvoir donné mon avis, c'était hyper intéressant et c'est vraiment cool de voir comment dans un meme peuple il peux y avoir une grande disparité idéologique, dans le sud c'est moins bien vus, l'Amérique est plus méprissé dans le sud de la France que dans le nord et j'ai se ressentiment pour un t'as de sujet que ce soit politique ou non, et c'est bien de montrer au américains autre chose que les eternels cliché de le France en tout cas bonne vidéo et merci d'avoir montrer et représenté la France
Yeah sure…French usually think their country is one of the worst actually. We constantly raging about what’s wrong and we forget about what’s good. A lot of people, not just French don’t usually like Americans because they think they’re arrogants and always want to give lessons to the world about their definition of liberty.
Merci, c'est cool pour la video, en général quand tu parles francais en France avec un accent, en général les gens trouvent sa soit normal, genre ils s'en foutent totalement et sa ne les impresionnent pas (car beaucoup de francais ne savent pas parler "réelement" un autre langue au minimum au dela de A2), soit ils te jugent et son énervés de ton accent, souvent les vieux grincheux d'ailleur! On est surement le seul pays aussi désagréable avec les étrangés qui prennent leurs temps d'apprendre la "langue de molière", et je trouve sa triste. Bonne video mon reuf
I dont think we're rude as people say, probably that some are when they're in a mad mood or so... but id say that overall speaking our language won't make us go crazy/surprised, at least personally. We're just used to hear people speak french with different accents as there are tons of immigrants/tourists in France 😅 Also, most people hardly speak any other language than french
Merci Beaucoup !!! ❤❤❤❤ As an American who just love Europe, esp France !❤❤❤ I hope with the latest élection, the world will still have a positive opinion on the USA. I apologize in advance for the horrible results....please keep in mind that lobbyists have ruined our electoral system. I PRAY THE WORLD REFUTE, legislation in the US ( like Citizen United) that helped usher in more corp. Greed to the point of striping the US citizens of their fundamental rights. 😢.
I am French-American, just a little heads up when you try to get people to do an interview with you. 1. Say hello before anything else, even if you say excusez-moi this is considered bad manner and very impolite, 2. be formal Say something to the effect of "Bonjour Madame, ça vous dérangerai de parler avec moi deux minutes s'il vous plait" . Btw the French don't hate Americans, the media shits on and makes a caricature of the states. They don't like America (for many reasons) but if you're chill and show you have culture, you'll be fine. Don't say you're American, say you're a new yorker or you're californian. The associations will be a lot more favorable than just saying you're American.

@@baronmeduse Incomprehensibly, WW2 jokes mainly come from the Americans, despite France being the country Americans historically owe the most.
@@lvl1_feral_druidNot really that much, those jokes mainly became a thing after Chirac said no to Bush son's glorious expedition in Iraq. Among others things such as renaming french fries as freedom fries.
@@baronmedusebien sûr que si et les Français sont experts en la matière.
We dont hate unitedstatians, some hate US goverment imperialist policies but most of french people are kind and curious with them.
every country is imperialistic when they are at the top of the food chain. It's how they maintain growth until inevitable collapse.
France had it's turn and did the same shit 1700's-1800's with it's 80+ colonies across Africa, lebenon, ect.
we didn't make the rules of the game and neither did you that's just how the game is played and it'll never change sorry.
WTF is a Unitedstatians? Not sure if you are trying to be funny or legit ignorant.
100% agree
il n'y a pas plus impérialiste que la france...
@@okeoke8701 On est bien d'accord mais actuellement ça change et l'Occident se fait foutre dehors un peu partout et c'est une bonne nouvelle
Ce ne sont pas les américains que les français détestent , mais leur mentalité a vouloir imposer leurs visions au monde
La politique américaine qui veut dominer le monde
As an American, I agree.
Good to have you back brother! Salut au Pays Bas! 🇳🇱 - Kaja is a very interesting lady! 😊❤
The serbian girl was a stunner ❤ Both in looks and attitude. That serbian woman for you. Beautif, elegant, mind seem to be a little reserved at first, but once you crack them, they're surpsisingly openminded
One never knows if a stranger speaks the language one is using to crtisize them in front of them. I love delivering the shock.
To the question: “What nation do you think contributed the most to the defeat of Germany in 1945?”
- 54% of French respondents in 2015 answered: The United States.
- May 1945, 57% answered: the USSR, the Americans were only mentioned by 20% of French people.
American soft power has done a good job 😅
yeah it's crazy. They came at end of the war and lost about 200k soldier. USSR fought for 6 years and lost 30M people. It was a single front for most of the war.
@@hounamao7140 I agree that is was USSR but USA and USSR both joined the war in 1941, within a couple months of each other
This, the US flooded us (and most of the world) with their "culture" aka soft-power in the most predatory and unrespectful manner.
@@hounamao7140 They also destroyed entire cities in they're path. My grandmother passed her life afraid of bombarding because of that... Also, going out at night was more dangerous under American supervision then when Nazis where they're.
@@eliroberts1762 USSR went to war in 1941 they were under direct attack by the Nazi. USA only waged war. They were not in Europe nor in any battle against the Nazi in 1941. They didn't do much before the Normandy invasion in 1944. They joined the war in 1941 because of Japan and mostly held the war there on the pacific ocean. They did very few interventions in Europe. And it was mostly in Italy (1943).
The reason a lot of french ppl rejected the interview i think is linked to the recent tik tok trends there that has been with street interviews especially in Chatelet (the place you're filmin in), some interviewers asks dumb question for tik tok stats and it's been a trend for like recent years in particular on tik tok, so i think that is why some of them act cold. But i guess this recent trend with street interviews is not only limited to France, you can see this phenomenon internationally on the internet
From NYC, Felicitations! Vraiment superbe travail! J'aime l'energie de sa chaine et te souhaits beaucoup et continue succes!!
In particular, I loved to listen to the story of Kaja! So unique. Love from Germany 🫶🏻 Merci à tous!
Je suis heureuse que j’ai apprendais Français, parce que les questions simple comme cette son plus extraordinaire dans la langue de les Francophones (je suis hollandais et j’etais très fatiques de comprendre pas eux, ça est ma raison pour apprendre la)
Shout a tout les Francophones ici!
Bravo à toi d'apprendre la langue française ! 😃 Je te souhaite de garder cette belle motivation ! ❤🎉
@@Lolubellule merci beaucoup🥳 les reponses comme votre ça me fait motivé le plus! Je vais rester ameliorer ma maïtre sur cette langue❤️
C'est super, continue comme ça!
Tu m'as fais mal aux yeux
Omg super goed 😊 ! Bravo pour ta persévérance !
So the French don't seem to hate the Americans according to these interviews
Which aren't representative either. But we don't hate them.that being said, our language doesn't mistake vehement and loud arguments for fights.We call it a family dinner.
Definitely not , just some recognizable cultural differences.
@@markward3981 Absolutely. but in some parts, differences are common and welcome, with many nasty jokes that aren't a PR problem, more like a hobby.
I wish that Americans would pay a little more attention to the fact that, when they are in another country, it helps to attempt to speak the language spoken in that country. Your stock goes up when you don't expect that others will know English.
Funny enough, people don’t want to learn English in America
absolutely. I always try to do that but it's tough when our education system doesn't value learning foreign languages... it's a shame.
Except they do. Speak English and or Spanish and you can converse with most of the world.
When we attempt, you speak English
Me not knowing how to speak their language does not mean a expect them to know mine. I would assume I'd have a very hard time getting things without knowing at least the basics.
3:42 She couldn't use her language as a scapegoat. Buddy knows how to speak all languages
Will John - you’re amazing how you speak so many languages.
Great video. Very impressive language skills! Loved hearing what people have to say about Americans. I'm in Pimsleur French 4 right now. It's been ok for me because I studied 8 years of French more than 40 years ago. But mon mari - oh-la-la. It's a difficult program for someone who has zero familiarity with the language. Thanks again for the "people on the street" interviews!
2:57 I don't think that grunt was only about not getting a question answered 😂
I'm French and I love the US. The Paris population is absolutely NOT representative of the French people, the same way that the New York population does not represent the US. You need to travel a bit more and venture to meet the real French population in the rest of the country.
I agree I live in France for 3 months I’m from
New York myself first French people I met were in Paris and I thought the rumors must be trust then I left Paris and went to Lille and was 100% different
2:35 « les gens sont très fermés en France » on a le droit a l’avortement dans la constitution on est pas revenu dessus comme aux états unis
Il n' y a vraiment pas de quoi être fier, avoir comme droit d' assassiner des bébés inscrit dans la constitution de son pays! Pauvre France! Tous ceux qui ont contribué à cette horreur et ceux qui s' en réjouissent sont bien contents que leurs mères ne les aient pas avortés! Pourquoi souhaiter que d'autres personnes soient avortés? Nonsense et méchanceté gratuite! 😢
Asking why french people hate Americans while knowing about french bashing is wild
c'est drole parce que quand je vais en Ecosse, les Français parlent fort (i speak english and french so i understood them)
I live in NYC, and see and here loads of French speakers everyday, and they're never loud. I make that observation upon 25 years as a New Yorker, not a tourist.
les touristes parlent fort
Mais oui c est un reflexe bete de parler fort quand on est dans un environnement etrangers
We eat too much, we drink too much, we talk too much, we try to fit everything in one weekend because we work too much. We are basically too much. But that is what makes us unique to other countries. From what I gather they just think we are all like a bit too much; but they find us kinda fun to hang out with sometimes if to just make fun of us and we don't mind!
Loooool the Serbian girl French is PERFECT!!! Gros mitho 😂😂😂😂
I asked a French man in the Brittany area if he hated Americans because he kept criticizing me. He was a friend of a friend of mine and we were all out just having a good time. I was sitting there minding my own business. His response to me was,we don’t even like other French people. I’ll never forget that.
Hahaha you left that girl hanging for so long
The Serbian girl said she didn't speak good French ?!? I would love to speak Serbian the way she speaks French !
Is it possible they only notice the loud Americans and the quiet ones slip by undetected?
Serbian mix Lebanese girl is very beautiful, the ladies from those countries are globally pretty
People have to understand that french and american people are FAMILY : sometimes you love each other but sometimles you like to fight, but at the end, we're family 🙂
Salut d'un Croate francophone. En ouvrant la vidéo, je ne m'attendais pas à croiser un Américain parlant ma langue maternelle avec une Serbe en plein Paris. C'est drôle !
Bonjour! Thank you for an excellent video! France offers so much more than America. The sense of community, perhaps because there are plazas, inviting dialogue?. America has processed food with additives causing a change in metabolism, which we did not feel when we were in Ukraine, Poland, and Estonia last year. I am a retired American educator. We helped a new school open in Lviv, then spent 6 weeks in Krakow; we're in Tallinn for a month before heading back to Oregon. My wife and I sold our Portland condo and we are moving to France in January. Living in France has several significant advantages: climate, healthcare, culture, and infrastructure. Merci!! Dean and Cindy.
Dude re,as with that nonsense. Plenty of places with great organic food. All that over the top faux self deprecation is lame as hell.
Who doesn’t dislike tourists??
Why American People hate French?
I think it's because of Irak and we (french) said no to do war with them so yeah now we are called like "coward" you know but maybe not just a guess and I think they know for mostly just Parisian and not really the other part of the France and yeah to be honest (as a French here) Parisian are a bit to cold with people and busy all the time so yeah maybe (if any American can explain if im wrong or not i wanna know too why we are "hated" ?)
As an American, I love France and the French. Many people here are ignorant however
It’s mostly bc of how Parisians treat people that we associate it with all of France bc nobody really goes to anywhere outside of Paris usually
I myself love the French
We don't. Well, I don't. I hope to live there one day. but the old stereotypes about the French being cowards because of WW II and Iraq are still around. I would ignore that.
6:29 "love my brother" 😍
I lived in Paris for 6 months and I got hassled twice for being American but I think it was more about being a tourist. Foreigners have to realize that Paris is FULL OF TOURISTS and it must be overwhelming for locals sometimes. Most people speak English because even if you’re from Europe, English will be the common language.
5:56 she’s very touchy. If that’s her bf next to her, thats weird
because she is american, the frenchs dont do the hugs.
She high fived him and called him "my brother" in the end lmao
@@drefhill lmao tf are you saying french kiss on the cheeks to greet instead of fake hugs.
White american are tight ass people who dont even kiss on the streets, french are mediterranean and way more warmer than white americans.
Italian/Spanish are even warmer.
@@lenz2789 They are both American, they were having a moment. Lol
I believe @ Andu_music is referring to the dude on her left, not the interviewer, 😂, and I share his views on this.
I went to Paris, Nice and a few other places in France many years ago. The only rude person I had an encounter with wasn't French. At the time I spoke very basic French, so possibly me attempting to speak the language, even very rudimentary was shown as a sign of respect and I had a great experience. The same basic thing happened to me when I was in Montreal and Quebec City.
I'm French, and I love the US and American people. I love their culture, traditions and creativity in music and arts in general. And my family and friends do too. I don't know why people think we hate Americans, we really don't ☺
People in Europe are open-minded and have no fear. They can freely talk about who they are and what they do in life.
Excellente vidéo. ❤
le premier gars était intelligent
Il est surtout naïf, tous les pays s'espionnent, et le gouvernement américain a fait bien pire qu'espionner les dirigeants français lol.
Comme disait Mitterrand "La France ne le sait pas, mais nous sommes en guerre avec l'Amérique. Oui, une guerre permanente, une guerre vitale, une guerre économique, une guerre sans mort apparemment. Oui, ils sont très durs les Américains, ils sont voraces, ils veulent un pouvoir sans partage sur le monde. C’est une guerre inconnue, une guerre permanente, sans mort apparemment et pourtant une guerre à mort."
Excellent vlog. I’m happy to hear the French like Americans and many wish to visit the United States. It’s refreshing because I am a U.S. Marine and understand the French in Château-Thierry, love U.S. Marines for fighting like “Devil Dogs” against the Germans during WWI. In Normandy, Americans are treated warmly for what Americans boys did at Omaha beach…the beaches
After traveling I realized that Americans are some of the most generous and kind people in the world. You can start a conversation with anyone in America and it will be a good one. the same cannot be said for many countries in Europe. Definitely depends on what state you're in though. I found the French to be some of the funnest around. Heaps of fun to be had once they realize you are not like the stereotypical American
We don’t care, We like good humans all around the word. And please, don’t stay in Paris, ask the rest of France.
I wish my spoken English was as good as the Serbian girl's French. Her accent is almost perfect.
I am French and the controversy over embassies having intelligence and spying services has always made me laugh. I think this reaction was an act, only the most disconnected people from reality took it at face value and continue to ignore that each country has its own spy and intelligence service, including in friendly countries.
French here, and I admire American fitness culture. But I feel sorry when I hear about your tuition fees 💸
Everyone was so friendly :)
Merci pour votre honnêteté et votre expérience.
The French i guess they do not hate: they maybe don't care... maybe sometimes we forget about your existence. What's wrong with that.
But for having been there, i know you're kind.
So, i'd say your kindness is underrated.
Well keep on
C'est merveilleux that so many gens francais think Americans are friendly and warm❤
If it wasn’t for America there would be no France we saved their ass so many times
You're doing a wonderful thing
I see the french as indifferent. My experience in Paris in 1998 as a 20 year old speaking almost no French and having 0$ to my name was that nobody was about to harm me, I survived ok by hopping turnstyles and snatching a carrot or two from outdoor vendors without so much as being chased and slept outside in the park with no bother, but they certainly weren’t trying to help me either, not even at the embassy they just kept sending me to other offices across the city knowing I was on foot. This went on for about a week til I could get ahold of my bank in Oregon and find out why my card was frozen. No one gave me a dime.
I think French and Americans have a lot in common in many ways. They are proud of their countries (usually) and proud of how influential their culture has been for the rest of the world.
I wish people thought of that more often! We need to respect and support our allies. That doesn't mean we can't find other people annoying or tease other people, but remember everyone's different and different doesn't mean bad.
Mais j'aurais jamais deviné que la femme Serbe n'était francais couramment, elle a 0 accent quand elle parle français 😮
C’est pas plutôt les Américains qui aiment pas les Français ou le français tout court ? Tellement certain d’eux aiment se moquer de la langue française 😂
Le french bashing après l'épisode de la guerre en Irak
I AM ENJOYING THIS SO MUCH!!
Ça s'appelle le complexe d'infériorité
The Italian father of the child is not from Venice but "vicino a Partinico", that means from Sicily :)
😂😂😂😂 yoooo bro..this serbian girl born in Dubaï...u have a ticket with her bro 😂😂😂❤ love or any others interest that's absolutely outstanding how she look at you 😂😂😂
Tu parles serbe que moi qui suis d'origine serbe, je suis impressionné.
Tu as l'accent et le reste 😮
This is the 1st video i see... FOLLOW!
I would have prefered you to not put the subtitles because I´m learning french so I prefer to put french subtitles there. Thank you, great video :) But also i understand because you talked in different languages... FYI I´m learning my third languange because i would love to be poliglot :)
Bro great video !!
Underrated transition at 7:22
the cultural interact between different ppl is alwaye très intéressant !
As a French people , don’t care about people who are just so embittered 😂 we don’t hate American
you don't know anything about americans
@@Erwin93200 really ? I didn’t know … but I know a thing : I don’t hate American ppl and a lot of French people don’t hate them too
En tant quee français j'aurais adoré pouvoir donné mon avis, c'était hyper intéressant et c'est vraiment cool de voir comment dans un meme peuple il peux y avoir une grande disparité idéologique, dans le sud c'est moins bien vus, l'Amérique est plus méprissé dans le sud de la France que dans le nord et j'ai se ressentiment pour un t'as de sujet que ce soit politique ou non, et c'est bien de montrer au américains autre chose que les eternels cliché de le France en tout cas bonne vidéo et merci d'avoir montrer et représenté la France
New subs!😎🤟🏽
Wow, dude, I am American, speak French presque courrament, you're AWESOME....serb, arab, Italian, german, japanese, eglish...amazing.
The hand shakes are funny. Like a box of chocolates, you never know what you’re gonna get 😂
6:20 she Said did a really good explaination about french opinion ! Elle a tout dit !
Next step, going to villages just to see how differents peoples are about America.
shhh...don't tell them about the next video in France haha
French here, we don't hate you, we hate that you think you are the greatest country in the world, cause that's us obviously XD
Yeah sure…French usually think their country is one of the worst actually. We constantly raging about what’s wrong and we forget about what’s good. A lot of people, not just French don’t usually like Americans because they think they’re arrogants and always want to give lessons to the world about their definition of liberty.
6:50 "Bons vivants" doesn't meant "good-natured", it's a French saying that means epicurean basicaly
Merci, c'est cool pour la video, en général quand tu parles francais en France avec un accent, en général les gens trouvent sa soit normal, genre ils s'en foutent totalement et sa ne les impresionnent pas (car beaucoup de francais ne savent pas parler "réelement" un autre langue au minimum au dela de A2), soit ils te jugent et son énervés de ton accent, souvent les vieux grincheux d'ailleur! On est surement le seul pays aussi désagréable avec les étrangés qui prennent leurs temps d'apprendre la "langue de molière", et je trouve sa triste. Bonne video mon reuf
ça reste une minorité.
I dont think we're rude as people say, probably that some are when they're in a mad mood or so... but id say that overall speaking our language won't make us go crazy/surprised, at least personally. We're just used to hear people speak french with different accents as there are tons of immigrants/tourists in France 😅 Also, most people hardly speak any other language than french
@@axo_lolt4083 Bon point, c'est vrai que on a un pays très diversifié culturellement.
Regarder les gens de haut avec ton A2 et faire des fautes d'orthographe basiques ça fait tache .
Merci de ne pas parler pour les autres. Tu ne parles qu'en TON nom.
All those people in the video are not french, am native french and I love americans.
The love and respect the Europeans had for the United States is long gone.
Impressionnante maîtrise des interviews.
The French are both fascinated and disgusted by the Americans.
especially at mealtime :p
We are like this with everyone even between us 🥰
Merci Beaucoup !!! ❤❤❤❤ As an American who just love Europe, esp France !❤❤❤ I hope with the latest élection, the world will still have a positive opinion on the USA. I apologize in advance for the horrible results....please keep in mind that lobbyists have ruined our electoral system. I PRAY THE WORLD REFUTE, legislation in the US ( like Citizen United) that helped usher in more corp. Greed to the point of striping the US citizens of their fundamental rights. 😢.
I am French-American, just a little heads up when you try to get people to do an interview with you. 1. Say hello before anything else, even if you say excusez-moi this is considered bad manner and very impolite, 2. be formal Say something to the effect of "Bonjour Madame, ça vous dérangerai de parler avec moi deux minutes s'il vous plait" .
Btw the French don't hate Americans, the media shits on and makes a caricature of the states. They don't like America (for many reasons) but if you're chill and show you have culture, you'll be fine. Don't say you're American, say you're a new yorker or you're californian. The associations will be a lot more favorable than just saying you're American.
On the next Goluremi: Will John marries Kaja
Elle est très jolie.
I'm French and I never heard that french people hate Americans. My husband is one and people have no problem with him.
