"-the exciting world of french verbs" *cuts to completely unexcited face* I'm dead
There was no cut
I am a French native and I sometimes struggle to explain why and when to use the subjunctive to my students but YOU NAILED IT! Thank you so much for your video I will surely use it again for my future lessons!
I’m a french beginner but I watched the whole video #rebel, absolute adore the editing, great video and great explanation, thank you!!
So the french has subjunctive mood too, i thought that it was a spanish thing, so that means the gringos are the weirdos.
I have an exam in one hour and watching your video makes everything so clear! Thanks for being hilarious and making study process so much fun!
I love your video editing.
PLEASE COME BACK TO MAKING VIDEOS THIS WAS SO HELPFUL AND ALSO ENTERTAINING
Merci, that is so helpful
After having watched a dozen videos about the subjunctive, I fell in love with yours and your channel! Great taken, explanation, materials and lots of sun, of course! Thank you!
MERCI! i have been struggling so much with this, you're so clear and concise.
Great video! The best teachers take the students through difficult topics like a breeze and voilà the concept becomes so clear. And your sense of humour is awesome. I loved the example sentences. I am totally in the right 'mood' now to nail subjonctif which was eluding me. Merci ! 🙂
Très bien expliqué!
I will show that to my students, thanks 👍🤗

PS: I doooon't think you can say "Je pense pas qu'il vient" though. It sounds strange not to use a subjunctive here! Oh but then again, I'm French so I probably use it wrong ahaha
I think i'd say 'je pense pas qu'il viendra" we're both french and we both probably use it perfecly even if we're wrong wich we never are even when we are :D
I think i'd say 'je pense pas qu'il viendra" we're both french and we both probably use it perfecly even if we're wrong wich we never are even when we are :D
Je suis français et "je pense qu'il vient" is absolutely correct. For exemple :
- "Quand penses-tu qu'il va venir ?" (When do you think he will come ?"
- "Je pense qu'il vient à 5 heure" ( I think he will come at five o'clock)
versus :
"penses-tu qu'il va venir ?" (Do you think he will come ?)
-"Je ne pense pas qu'il vienne". ( I don't think he will come)
@@mecha-sheep7674 No one said "Je pense qu'il vient" was incorrect :D. I was simply pointing out that when you turn this sentence into the negative form, it calls for the subjunctive :).
I hope they're in college!
When "show me present subjunctive" came up in my lesson, I started sweating ....SO glad I found your video! Thank you!!
Will be coming back to watch more in the future. :)
Love your teaching style, humor and editing - makes retaining the information so much easier! Good to know even the French have challenges with the subjunctive. 😏
Funny, to the point, and useful. You have a simple way of explaining a hard subject. Thank you!
Thank you so much :) When asked for an explanation, my French teacher just stated that there was no explanation for this "thing" and that we would just need to know it by heart.
Appreciate your use of fun editing!
Native French speaker here. I don't use subjunctive after 'Il est évident que' (4:08) and subjunctive would definitely sound weird contrary to other cases where it is optional. I suppose you could argue 'evident' is an opinion but it is more about an objective reality than 'nécessaire' or 'normal'. Speaking of 'que', I learned the subjunctive forms at school preceded by 'que' precisely to distinguish them from indicative so that I was shocked at 3:01 until realizing it is subjunctive (duh the subject of the video, but it quickly followed a part about indicative 2:38-2:46 so that I was confused). Subjunctive is losing ground anyway, especially in everyday speech, but indeed it is still unavoidable in some cases and marks the well-taught speaker. Excellent accent by the way ;)
This is the first video of yours I've watched. I absolutely loved the, "Thanks, France," peppered here and there in the video.
I’M ABOUT TO GO INTO YEAR 12 TO DO A LEVEL FRENCH AND A CHANNEL LIKE YOURS WOULD BE INVALUABLE
*FRENCH AND SPANISH
2:26 lmao that describes my entire mood
I died at the verb sarcasm and the French blowing air sass at the end 😂
This is the best explanation of the subjunctive that I’ve seen!
This was so helpful! I've been learning french for about 5 years now and I understand so much more about the french subjunctive just from your video. Thank you!
I really love your teaching style. I realise that I have sometimes been using the subjunctive without realising it and also I do prefer to use je dois aller plutôt qu,il fait que j' y alle...because it rolls off the tongue more easily.
This is like the best French lesson I’ve ever watched. Thank you!!!!
This was great .. very funny 😆.. we as learners need to lighten up a bit and laugh a bit about the stress that comes with learning the subjunctive.. I’ve changed my outlook thanks to you.. not so much an impossible mountain to climb .. our perception of and the way in which we tackle a prob can make all the difference..
This is such a high quality video! Seriously, thank you.
This is the first time I’ve seen one of your videos and it was great! Entertaining and informative. Thank you!
Oh... I don't know where to start. Explanation? Excellent! Editing? Excellent! Humour? Excellent! Mate, you've just got yourself a subscriber. I've even clicked the bell. (I've never done that before! Thank you for taking my 'bell' viginity).
I love, l o v e the unique editing style and intros!
I love your video! Finally!! Someone teaching grammar una fun way! I want to do the same for Spanish! What editing programme do you use? Thanks! You are a genius!
Very short and helpful! Thank you!
First time ever that I had a laugh while learning Subjonctif. You are awesome man! 😂
As a Y12 French A-Level Student this video perfectly summarised and explained the subjunctive mood clearly. Thank you!!
“Thanks France.” Thanks for the helpful and entertaining video.
this video will forever be etched into my memory...
Absolutely top quality, very engaging and visually appealing. Could you do one for the difference of using avoir or être for passé composé? Thanks for considering it.
Thank you - that is the first time I have laughed and not cried when trying to learn the subjunctive.....
I have just found your chanel. Its 3:39 minute of the video...I'm smiling ...its funny ....and I stopped to write the comment just to let this video and YOU to go forward with our comments.
Thank you! Looking forward to episode 2
'Thanks France' 😹😹 love your editing! thanks for this video, awesome!
Haha 😆 love this too mate!
'Because your OPINION could be considered your emotion' - I was just immediately struck with an 'oooooh I get it now'. Thanks for real!
ahh can you please please please please make more grammar videos like this omg this helped so much
Thank you so much! I was really confused but this helped.
So helpful! And hilarious. Thank you.
I will never forgot how to say, “I don’t think he will come.” 😂😂😂 Great video!
Great video, very helpful. Thank you. I envy your French accent. It sounds perfect to me (but I am Australian). A vid on how to improve one's French accent would be welcome. My French teacher is a native speaker, and it visibly hurts her ears having to listen to me murdering her language.
This is amazing. Thank you so much!
everything about this video was so perfect
underrated channel mate.
Salut! Merci beaucoup pour votre vidéo, c'est incroyable! Bonne journée!
Brilliant - I have been doing this for n lessons [where n is a number too high] and it's finally made sense
You do have talent in languages ! I can’t discern any foreign accents when you speak either English or French!
...you my new teacher now
Hello Ed! haven't heard from you for quite a while i have heard from a lot from polyglots & linguists that. In order to learn a language inmersion is the main key to gain fluency, but i also have heard that french people make mistakes when speaking their native language & if they do what in the world do i expect!!! Je ne sait pas que-c'est mon niveau de francais donc je ne sais pas mon niveu de francais je pense que je me suis un peu ameliore car la grammaire est tres compliquee je decide continuer mes etudes i read magazines & newspapers to learn vocabulary i'll be happy to reach b1 or b2 level ! Grammar & conjugation will come later on ...
Great video! Can’t see any links to the lists you’ve mentioned in the video though, could you include them?
Salut la ferpection, je suis français et j'ai adoré ta vidéo !
Moreover, you learn me that this case it's called "the subjonctive" and as i'm french since my birth, it's natural for me so I didn't knew it perfectly xD
Me gusta idiomas también, sé como hablar en español pero puedo sempre tener errores cuando escribo/hablo en español jaja
Eu comecei a aprender Português porquê mi namorada fala português mas cuando falo en português eu hablo español (C'est chiant ça xD)
И для мне язык, который мне нравится больше всего, русский. но это немного трудно 😂
Mais je suis fière de ma langue aussi :P
Ta chaîne mérite plus d'abonnés !
Good points thanks .
This was so good I wish you had more french videos
Je pense que....non.....J'aime bien la vidéo!
Continuez comme ça!

Cette video était très creative. Pourriez-vous en faire plus ? J'ai beaucoup de mal avec le conditionnel.
J'ai appris le subjonctif il y a 20 ans. Depuis ce temps, j'ai absolument oublié que ce temps verbe existe. Ca veut dire que j'ai parlé avec les francophones sans utiliser le subjonctif pendant 20 ans !!
Great intro video!
Hey thanks for uploading this video...
This is really useful ......
Can u pls make a video on how to use passé composé and imparfait ....coz i really face alot of problems distinguishing where to use what......
This was brilliant !! Merci bcp :)
Thank you! Love the editing a
Super helpful, thanks! :D
Damn. This is brilliant. Thank you!
Loved the way you explained!!! But I could not find the materials on the given link.
Votre français est incroyable. Quel est votre histoire à propos de cette langue ? Pouvez-vous nous en dire plus sur votre apprentissage ?
Nice video!
thank you it helped a lot i had trouble in school .
You sweet sweet biscuit you, thank you for this video. I know it's been four years now, but can you do one on the difference between using the Imperfect and Passé Composé?
Yet another video in top, unmistakable Ed-quality B-)
linguaEpassione Ed is the new rising talent! Jan
Cheers guys :)
Very well explained and fun, I started laughing watching it on a train. ;)
HA! HA! what a fun video for the subjunctive 😎 and my grade 10's are definitely gonna giggle about your lil faux pas 😉. Thank you !
In fact, i could pick up Queen Elizabeth’s British accent while she spoke French. In any case, I want to continue watching more videos to improve my French. Merci Beaucoup!
maybe not first comment but first like :D, another great video - thank you!
The subjonctif exists also in English.
He suggests that you be present at the meeting.
This helped me so much when I realised that I had already been using the subjunctive in English so I knew exactly how to use it in French, though we only use it for "to be" in English.
Amazing dude
How come you stopped making videos? I really enjoyed this one!
Hello teacher, do u have lessons for explaining ( le subjonctif ) for the level ( B2) ?
Thanks a lot
Merci beaucoup
bonne explication!
i really like this video!!!Yo man you did a great job!!!HAHA
Nice editing!
hi.. love the video on the subjunctive.. ive subscribed, but how do i access the list of common expressions which take the subjunctive? help please
So I am french and I decided to make a tour of every video teaching french
I am going to have to watch that again, it was a little bit quick for me.
But hey, I am 76.
Duolingo in French and Norwegian. 6+ years.
I didn't take that sentence the other way till you said it omg 😂😂
Excellent interesting video!~ Where are the links, they would be so useful. Susan
Watch out for "il est évident que" - it does use the indicative unless you establish a doubt ; est-il évident que + subj ? .. if not, it's about certainty and it remains with the indicative :)
Am I missing something? There's a list of these phrases as extra materials? I signed up but only got a PDF on how to learn languages. Great video, b ut can't find the mentioned "materials"... Cheers!
Can you please make a video on the verbs which take Les Pronoms Toniques like Penser - Je pense a lui/elle/toi
Great video. I clicked on the link for the bonus material and sigend up for your mailing list but I still don't have the bonus material. How do I get that?
Hi , merci :) bonne expliquer.. pls do all the french verb tenses ..
Fun video.
A little fast paced but I enjoyed it.
I LOVE THE RANDOM CUTS
Can you do this with the conditional? Much thanks :)
Hey Brooke, yeh that was on my list. Will let you know when it comes out :)
