Oh, absolutely. I work as a translator (French to English, with French being my native language) and, after two decades, I often find myself using words in French that I know exist in English only to be told by English speakers "that's not a word" or "that doesn't exist lol". I then spend the next few minutes *educating them about their own language* and letting them know that yes, those words do, in fact, exist. It's insupportable.
Can you give some examples of words, s'il vous plaît? As a native English speaker, learning French, I'm curious what words my fellow English speakers think don't exist. Merci beaucoup!
@@pushthedesign Often times, it's words that are less used in day-to-day conversations. Of recent memory, the word "imponderable" (which is definitely more widely used in French than in English). When it happens, it's generally about words that are not frequently used in English (or would be considered literary) and are of French origin.
Hm as a native English speaker for some reason my intuitions tell me it should be "unsupportable" not "insupportable", I know that there are other S words that take the "in" prefix like insurmountable or insatiable but "un" is typically used with "supported" in English for some reason (as someone who has an interest in programming and particularly gamedev ive come across the word "unsupported" way too many times...) Intellectually I'm well aware that "un" and "in" basically mean the exactly the exact same thing and since supported starts with S you would think it would take "in" and not "un" but if theres anything consistent about English its just how inconsistent it is 😂 So to me "unsupportable" "feels" more right even if theres evidence it should be otherwise
it's similar with english-german: if i take an english word and "germanise" it, these words usually actually exist in german but they are not often used and are more pretentious/high society words (me being a german)

2:46 A joke I have on this subject is that I worked hard to the point of crying while learning prepositions and participles in school and then when I arrived in the UK, I realised I don’t know the 50,000 variants of the word ‘drunk’.
Truth be said, the similarities between French and English gave few pushes while learning the second! What I find a bit mind-blowing is that some French vocabulary is used as 'advanced' in English...
Most French vocabularies that ended up in English were used pretty much only by the nobility (be it because of the Norman conquest of 1066 or because French was the lingua franca in Europe) that's why so many French words in English aren't really used in casual conversation but rather in more formal situations
@@fluffyunicorn57yeah because a to of scientific and academic terms in English are lifted directly from French practically unmodified aside from pronunciation...
This takes root in the Norman origins of English royalty. They brought their vocabulary with them, giving birth to a French-like upper class English language.
Norman is not really a language, it’s a French dialect or patois. English say Norman instead of French because they are ashamed to be invaded and ruled by French during centuries.
This is so true. I do that all the time. To the point that it makes it easier to pass vocabulary tests online. Just think of a French word we use all the time, like "une aubade" and boom! It's a super advanced English word...
I've done the opposite! As a native English speaker, I was once in a meeting with two native French speakers, one of whom had weaker English skills. I instinctively used "fancier" English words, and couldn't figure out why I was doing this, as my speech patterns were different than if I were speaking to someone from Asia. After the meeting, I finally figured out why...
I'm Russian and the first language which I started to learn was English. Now I'm learning French and very often I feel embarrassed when I speak: if the word I said is English or is a French one. But funny thing: one of my French colleagues told me that since she had started to listen to a lot of English songs, even she started sometimes to confuse English and French words.
Moi c'est l'inverse qui se passe, à force de regarder du contenu anglophone. Quand j'ai sorti le verbe "compréhender", on m'a regardé de travers. Alors j'ai vérifié, et le mot existe mais seulement en ancien français. J'ai accidentellement utilisé un mot que je n'avais évidemment jamais lu/entendu auparavant, et c'est un mot médiéval !
When I was in France I anglissized French and frenchized English all the time, in order to keep my English pronunciation right. The result is positive: I have no accent in either language. BTW, I am Chinese.
I have the same problems. I live in germany, but i speakt spanish and german since my birth. Then I learned french in school . So at first i simply mixed up french and Spanish words. But the better i was in French, the more I mixed the two languages. One time I wrote in a spanish class test lequel und laquella... ( and so on)😂😂😂😂😂😂
Oh, this is hilarious! I am a native Romanian, but a certified translator for English and French. Sometimes I mix the three up in the most embarrassing ways!
After living in Francophone Suisse for the last 12 years, I found myself saying in english "That bus is not the mine". I was trying to say "That is not my bus".
I actually have the opposite issue, I don't interact with or speak much french anymore so I've slowly started losing my vocabulary and just making the fuck up grammar rules to justify sounding like a damn idiot when my family side eyes me when I use an English word and french it up (more often than not it does turn out to be still kinda correct just not the most known and used), it's like the more english I use and words I absorb and learn the more my french gets buried like some sort of evil twin in the womb eating the life force of the other. I have a german friend telling me he had the same issue and the more fluent he became the worse his german got, surely it's not just an us thing lmao
There is a saying that learning a language makes you bad at both. And I can attest that It's not a you thing. I used to write novels, and now I'm sometimes impressed by google trad's exactitude. (
Same here. Trying to revive my french makes me lose my english (both are foreign languages for me). Always wonder how come the polyglots don't mix up languages and keep multiple languages at a high functional level.
when I was a student, we had a workshop were french students worked with italian students. We did this all the time, and it worked, because french and italian words sound the same when you englicise them. But one of our teacher spoke a perfect english, and we hardly understand him. My conclusion is that english is not a global linguage. Fake English is.

Yeah tbh if I heard someone say "rebecoming" or "indispensable" I wouldn't really bat an eye, to be fair I am pretty into linguistics so maybe it's just because I'm really good at breaking words down into their individual parts in my head to figure out what they mean (like "re" is a prefix that means that you're doing the action again- like redo or reset or replay or revise or resurgence- and "become" means to change states from one thing to another, so naturally "rebecoming" means returning to some previous state. In that specific example though I would generally prefer a word that refers to the state change itself if one exists and use that instead, like if I were talking about water melting and freezing again I would say it "refroze", not "rebecame frozen", that's obviously unnessecarily verbose when a far more concise alternative exists)
Je me suis tellement reconnue quand il imite les français parler en anglais. J'adore revoir ce sketche. When I try to speak english, it's the same thing. But...when an italian is speaking english with roll "r" as in their language, I m saying me : "We are french ! And we have our accent as others countries have their owns". I love read subtitles in english when he 's speaking french, even if I don't need to understand, it's just fun and I can learn news words.
Ils trouvent ça drôle mais ils ignorent qu'une bonne moitié des mots anglais sont justement cela : anglicised French words. Petite liste de mots anglais issus du français. Kickshaw : prononciation anglaise de "quelque chose" Pedigree : même chose avec "pied de grue" Procrastinate : ça, tu l'as déjà expliqué Do : à l'époque de Molière, le verbe "faire" pouvait être utilisé pour remplacer n'importe verbe qu'on ne voulait pas répéter. Exemple : "Il l'aime dans son âme / Cent fois plus qu'il ne fait mère, fils, fille et femme" (Tartuffe) Moron : personnage de la pièce de Molière La Princesse d'Elide, une espèce de bouffon bête et peureux Tous les mots empruntés tels que rendez-vous, déjà-vu, etc.

I was just thinking “but those are all English words!”. The problem isn’t you. The problem is that most English people only use a fraction of the vocabulary available to them. They are suffering from antivocabularism.
Yeah this is all alive and well in the best English dialect: euroenglish. I.e. the english spoken by and within EU institutions, where obviously francophones (and other romance speakers) have a great deal of influence.
Il faudrait dépasser le stade de l'anglais parlant français avec un accent. Les salles risquent de ne se remplir que d'étudiants Erasmus et/ou membres communauté anglo-saxonne parisienne. 😉 A moins que cela soit l'objectif de ce stand uper ?
Yeah, in fact most of our vocabulary comes from French. It's just a lot of the words have taken a different nuance over the years. Nobody in England would ever say they're "desolated" to apologise for something for example unless they were being very dramatic
A l'inverse l'expression "deja vu", n'est jamais utilisé en France si ce n'est dans le sens littéral. Donc quand j'entends un anglo-saxon mettre "déja vu" dans une phrase je me demande ce qu'il veut dire par là 😂😂

Yeah tbh if I heard someone say "rebecoming" or "indispensable" I wouldn't really bat an eye, to be fair I am pretty into linguistics so maybe it's just because I'm really good at breaking words down into their individual parts in my head to figure out what they mean (like "re" is a prefix that means that you're doing the action again- like redo or reset or replay or revise or resurgence- and "become" means to change states from one thing to another, so naturally "rebecoming" means returning to some previous state. In that specific example though I would generally prefer a word that refers to the state change itself if one exists and use that instead, like if I were talking about water melting and freezing again I would say it "refroze", not "rebecame frozen", that's obviously unnessecarily verbose when a far more concise alternative exists)
Je me suis tellement reconnue quand il imite les français parler en anglais. J'adore revoir ce sketche.
When I try to speak english, it's the same thing. But...when an italian is speaking english with roll "r" as in their language, I m saying me : "We are french ! And we have our accent as others countries have their owns".
I love read subtitles in english when he 's speaking french, even if I don't need to understand, it's just fun and I can learn news words.
So, if someone ‘cogitates’, do they become a ‘codger’?
Trop drôle ! Donc ces mots existent en anglais ! 😂
Très bon extrait j'adore Merci Paul
I had the same problem living in England
in Quebec its franglais
Ils trouvent ça drôle mais ils ignorent qu'une bonne moitié des mots anglais sont justement cela : anglicised French words. Petite liste de mots anglais issus du français.
Kickshaw : prononciation anglaise de "quelque chose"
Pedigree : même chose avec "pied de grue"
Procrastinate : ça, tu l'as déjà expliqué
Do : à l'époque de Molière, le verbe "faire" pouvait être utilisé pour remplacer n'importe verbe qu'on ne voulait pas répéter. Exemple : "Il l'aime dans son âme / Cent fois plus qu'il ne fait mère, fils, fille et femme" (Tartuffe)
Moron : personnage de la pièce de Molière La Princesse d'Elide, une espèce de bouffon bête et peureux
Tous les mots empruntés tels que rendez-vous, déjà-vu, etc.
Mock-up = Maquette
how do you say 'what du fack ' in french accent?
I recently moved to Montreal and I'm scared shirtless that this is gonna happen to me.
so "clichés" but my taylor is still rich....
I think it's unlikely someone would think "rebecoming" isn't an English word.
"Indispensable" is one football fans might be familiar with.

So basically, you’re speaking Moira Rose’s English lmao
To be fair that would have been the perfect title to showcase exactly how French your English had become 😂
English is a neolatine idiom created by normands frenches, period, no cries, case closed 😅😅😅.
Its because regular french words are more advanced than their english counterparts and nobody uses those words
C'est la même chose en espagnol, plus le niveau de langage est élaboré, plus il y a de probabilité qu'on le retrouve en français /anglais/espagnol et sûrement italien .. portugais?
Il s'amuse bien le cameraman
Don't make jokes about my french heritage....
This is exactly why english has so many loanwords from french.
Bah le vocabulaire anglais provient beaucoup du français
This was funny by the end, but I was so confused for the first 2:30 minutes because he just kept listing real words and saying they didn't exist. Like, yeah, I've also been living abroad a while, but I'm fairly certain those are all English words.
Tu voulais couper ça au montage et tu nous l'as sort en moment isolé :D Mais excellent moment ! Allez je reviens je dois plier mes caleçons, François m'a expliqué sa nouvelle méthode !
parce que ce passage est aussi dans le spectacle, rien n'a été coupé.
@@minirop j'ai vu le spectacle en entier, d'où la deuxième partie de mon commentaire. Ce qui est drôle est que justement ça lui arrive en direct, il le laisse dans le spectacle entier et en plus, il en fait un moment isolé via une courte vidéo.

You are my superhero 🎉🎉🎉
😂😂😂 Today, I started to learn French by watching your videos... but suddenly, all my Spanish friends on Facebook started to chat with me in Spanish... but as Italian, I have overcomplicated everything 😂😂😂😂😂😂
My gosh 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 🇫🇷🇮🇹🇪🇸🇬🇧
I was just thinking “but those are all English words!”. The problem isn’t you. The problem is that most English people only use a fraction of the vocabulary available to them. They are suffering from antivocabularism.
Funny.... , do you have English mates that you get together with and have a drink, and talk English. Maybe you should? If you don't..
Yeah this is all alive and well in the best English dialect: euroenglish. I.e. the english spoken by and within EU institutions, where obviously francophones (and other romance speakers) have a great deal of influence.
If I don’t know someone’s job title, I add ist or eur. If I don’t know a verb, I take the English verb and add er. Life’s so much easier.
yeah frensh is the best langage in the world !
You still kick language mongrelisation's ass! Luv it. C'est d'enfer.
Elle les utilise plus, la reine.
She has trespassed.
I got the tendency to put a H in front of words and take it away when hit should be there.
I'm like "i ave and Haverage look " 😅
As long as you do not speak French the way English do, praise heavens.
I married a French and it happens to me too ^^ (and I really really don't say Frenchman anymore)
Il faudrait dépasser le stade de l'anglais parlant français avec un accent. Les salles risquent de ne se remplir que d'étudiants Erasmus et/ou membres communauté anglo-saxonne parisienne. 😉 A moins que cela soit l'objectif de ce stand uper ?
Many english words come from the French though.
Yeah, in fact most of our vocabulary comes from French. It's just a lot of the words have taken a different nuance over the years. Nobody in England would ever say they're "desolated" to apologise for something for example unless they were being very dramatic
I mean, let's be honest, classy english words all come from french
I can relate as a bilingual.
Incroyable Paul!
Vous êtes irrésistible Paul Taylor !! Une autodérision à mourir de rire!! Par contre touche pas à la Queen R.I.P. 😢😂❤
Excellent Francais de Paul Taylor. Félicitations!
You speak french so well without an accent.
Ce gars là est formidable
Je parle en anglicismes tout le temps en vivant en France à cause d’internet, je dois faire un effort pour parler correctement…
Are those words really existating in english ?
So what ?
😂😂😂bro that's me the other way around!
😊
caca?
A l'inverse l'expression "deja vu", n'est jamais utilisé en France si ce n'est dans le sens littéral. Donc quand j'entends un anglo-saxon mettre "déja vu" dans une phrase je me demande ce qu'il veut dire par là 😂😂
..... Comme c'est souvent utilisé je me dis que ce n'est peut etre pas le sens littéral... Mais je sais que tu sauras éclaircir ce pbl... Kisses
L anglais est la langue que tous les peuples comprennent sauf quand c'est un anglais qui parle !
So Fritish or brench.
Tu es un génie oublié Paul 😊
Excellent mon Vieux!

Bucolic does actually exist in English too
That’s what he said
Awesome! J'ai regardé les show et maintenant je le regarde à nouveau, petit à petit ❤️💪
👏👏👏
C'est ouf parce que c'est le seul anglais dont je comprends l'accent et en plus de Londres, d'habitude quand je parle des anglais un peu éméchés je capte rien
"Losing My Religion" came to us from an Irish band. He would rather we forgot. He has not fully mastered the tension between France and, uck. But that is his comedic cshtick. He works his crowd well..
il parle à des français, là??
You know why bro it's like that en England/USA/Australia/Canada...we call that novlangue everything are on Orwell 1984...less vocabulary to building stupid society that's it
Peace be upon you.
Believe in ALLAH (GOD) and the judgment day and do good deeds.
Don't drink alcohol, don't use the word "f..." That's will be better for you in this life and the hereafter.
