    I read that Italian and French share more words than either of them does with Spanish, but because the pronunciation is so different, it's far easier for Italians and Spaniards to understand each other than it is for Italians and French

      Incidentally, I've read somewhere that Frankish dialects (thus germanic) particularly influenced French prononciation. That may be why the prononciation diverged so much in those similar words, but not the way its spelled.

      Remember that Franks were a germanic tribe. Hispania was invaded by West Goths (Visigoths) and Italia was invaded by East Goths (Ostrogoths). However those tribes didn't force their language on the conquered lands after Roman Empire collapsed. They were barely 200,000 people and had to rule lands (Roman provinces) of 4-6 million people each, so they basically replaced the aristocracy, but the common people kept their old lives speaking Latin with new rulers. In Spain we keep just 300 words with Gothic roots (3% of Spanish). I don't know the number of such words in Italian language, sorry. A famous one is Spanish/Italian guerra (French guerre, Old Germanic warre, Frankish/Old Dutch werre, English war).

    • @daylonmurray8068
      @daylonmurray8068 2 года назад +6

      What Francisco said it’s true, but it’s also true for France. The Franks couldn’t impose their language on the people, because they were outnumbered as well. The reason why French sounds so different is because it was kind of further apart from Rome. At the time, it was much easier and faster navigating by sea than inland. Thus, Northern French people kept speaking Gaulish longer and altered Latin pronunciation more, as they gradually favoured Vulgar Latin. And since they were surrounded by Germanic tribes, Frankish somehow influenced more (in vocabulary, it’s debated if they did influence phonetics though). Since the capital of France is in Paris, standard French came from their variety. And as a kingdom and area of influence, language developed more (with many neologisms). However, the more you would go to the South, the more it would sound like Latin. In French Switzerland, feminine words end with « a » like in Italian and conjugation is closer to it as well. Further South, Occitan sounded no different than Catalan and is pretty Latin phonetic-wise. So French is clearly a Latin-based language, with more altered pronunciation. But as time went by, orthographists wanted to retain Latin roots and kept spelling the way it was before many of the alterations. That explains why French is not pronounced as written and thus allows other Latin speakers to read it.

      Exactly, the way French is written not very intuitive when you don't know the rules, so it's hard to pronounce in a similar way to English, but English is much less consistent than French. In English it's almost as if there is no rules that really apply, it's very hard to guess how a word is pronounced.

    mademoiselle, like fraulein in German, has ceased to being used partially because of their reference to prostitution, and partially because of the diminutive aspect of the word. Just like one would not say signorino in Italian for most anyone, but especially someone who has reached adulthood. It is about respect. which is why on a similiar not there is a debate about the use of "tu" vs. "vous". As in English "thou" vs. "Ye/You". The object form of Ye has become the standard way of "respecting" everyone.

    Stop to say that french language is hard in every word. All that we have to know is that almost every time, the last letter is not pronounce and used just to when we put an "e" to make the feminine form, it changes the sound of the masculine form.
    For exemple : un petit chat (silent "t") in femine give une petite chatte (all the "t" are pronounce)

    Italian, Spanish, Portuguese, Romanian, and French are all descended from Vulgar Latin, but French underwent the most linguistic changes since the Middle Ages. I think Latin is probably much easier to learn for native Italian and Romanian speakers than it is for speakers of other Romance languages. I wouldn't even consider Parisian French to be the purest form (Quebecois) of the French language.

    • @adjetyann2095

      That's not really true. As a native french speaker, I studied Latin at 1st cycle of secondary (I was in a Catholic school), and Latin was not so much problem for the majority of students.
      For example conjugation of the verb "to be" is very close of the French one, and generally Latin can be intelligible for us french speakers if we know the contest.

    The French girl makes the French language harder that it is... She tends to explain things that don't need to be explained because sometimes there is no rule and you just have to take it for what it is... French is not difficult because "Femme" isn't pronounced how it looks .
    French language is difficult yes but this particular example is a basic word you will encounter a lot so it shouldn't be a problem furthermore, this group of letters ---> "emme" is more pronounced like in the word "femme" than another way. For once this is not a trap but a rule that is respected...
    I know it's for fun but I prefer to support people who wants to learn French instead of discourage them
    Violemment

    Récemment
    Prudemment
    Précédemment
    Pertinemment
    Patiemment
    They are all pronounced with the French "A" sound like in "femme"

      That's because the French went through the French oral language discovery phase in a natural mimical way early in the infancy. But the grammar and orthography are a whole different matter which is mostly based on analysis.
      At school the French spend a lot of time to exert their analysis capacity in the French orthography and grammar which are overloaded with an infinite quantity of rules and exceptions.
      To such a point that they tend to think that only analysis is an option when learning any new language.
      I would advise to beginners first the spontaneous oral mimical approach then the analysis approach only after they achieved a minimum of oral fluency (making short sentences that sound natural in both formulation and pronunciation).

So people were usually calling young women Mademoiselle but this again could lead to awkward misunderstandings when people don't look their age or if they get married really early or really late.... so I think it's better if we only use Madame.
