A helicopter mum.

I’m from England but I know the French hate rules and luv to challenge and break them , more so than us over the water. If they protest - THEY ARE THE WORLDS BEST or WORST AT IT !

You are comparing the best health system in the world to others you are going to be disappointed necesseraly.

I understand your point on knowing a foreign language. I am trying to learn a few. I can tell you this, one can study a language: from books, internet, Uni, songs/movies, etc., but it doesn't replace talking to someone in that language. A learner needs that one-on-one conversation. If each US state/region had a different language like Europe, yes, we would have more bilingual people. And there's the money issue. Not everyone can afford to travel, let alone move to another country & live there.

Oh yeah ! Super saccharine Americans really blow the French away. They are amazed and, I guess, they might think it is some sort of scam. It is hard to get ‘inside’ a French household in any case. You have to ‘woo’ them. The French are not actually rude to Americans in particular, they just don’t suffer fools gladly. It is nothing personal. The French are more ‘observers’ (…think French street-side cafes) than go-getters. ‘Sales’ people are met with suspicion. So…. Did you manage to renounce your U.S. citizenship or are you still paying taxes on worldwide income??? Is this about stereotypes or is it a U.S. sales call??? This is exactly the kind of up-market practice that rubs the French the wrong way. Americans eat huge portions. The French - - especially the young, are eating some really fatal junk food but they tend to eat it in smaller portions than Americans. Sometimes when I see them putting it away, I’m surprised that they don’t get sick (…the French have delicate livers). The French are actually less promiscuous (…on average) than Americans. If you want to bed a woman in France, find a lonely American…. Or get a dog. I can’t recall ever having bedded a French girl (…for the first time) - - in France. Lots of women of other nationalities (…Paris in particular is the world’s seat of romance). Better to find French women when they are on vacation in another country - - and can spare the time to be seduced. (The French waste nothing.) I think for the Anglo boy, everything in French seems slightly illicit. French women have a ‘je ne sais quoi’ about them. It’s not that I haven’t thought about it a million times but - - what can I say? They are French - - vive la difference. I guess it started with Bridget Bardot, for me - - I’m not really sure. But I only want to be with the French-born woman. An American with a French passport seems like cheating, somehow, anyway. You can take the American out of America but you can never really not be American. I realized a long time ago that I would never be French no matter how much of an insider I became. All that being said, I only sleep with French women [shrug]. (And, sorry, _not_ American women with French passports.) …Once you go French, you’ll never go back to the wench.

Oui bravo, votre français est impeccable syntaxiquement, grammaticalement, en vocabulaire... mais cet accent.... c'est fou (et adorable) !

Les américains aiment la France comme ils aiment le monde entier surtout La Chine et la Russie en passant par L'Ukraine .

Un americain ici qui parles couramment le francais. En preparation d'aller vivre en France dans les regions du Lyon ou en Bordeaux.

#sucker did it for me😂 awesome

You're story is 3 years old so i can assume that now you know, yes it was a weird move to crawl under the table but you managed it as a chef. If i were your husband i would make (nicely) fun of you everytime we're in a cafe or restaurant and you wear a mini skirt

C pas un problème votre accent ! Plutôt joli cet accent mais, chez nous il existe 2 😂catégories ? Le féminin ! Le masculin ! Continuez ZZZ ❤

Incroyable la manière caricaturale avec laquelle vous décrivez la France.

Haha with my friends we used to party and drink in paris all night and around 8 o clock we breakfast in McDonald's and we go to sleep

Funny that most people would say American hugs are much more intrusive and intimate than simple "air kisses".

Some excellent, practical, common sense advice about making friends almost anywhere, but with some useful insights into France-specific relationship culture. Also good, relevant comments in that section -and I, too, loved the "chicken dinner" reference. That said, I trust that the presenter's actual spoken French pronunciation is better than the one she uses in the video. Bonne continuation à tous.

Thanks for your honesty. In the U.S. there is social regulation around looking your BEST & some will ostracize you for wanting to look your Best! Will go so far as to put your gender into question.

the French do couple up right away and move in together. the French actually find it strange if you are single. However, keep in mind that they break up fast too. Just because you live together does not mean the frenchie is considering you for long term. and their "honesty' at break up time can be brutal.

With all due respect. Americans don’t talk loud. They speak loudly.

Do you get paid. By Lagoda?

Don’t call America the Land of Cheeseburgers. Call it what it is. The land of the free!!! Don’t say that we love violence either. That’s stereotyping. And it’s not that we love guns, we love our rights to protect ourselves with guns.

Ne t'inquiètes pas . Les accents servent à parler la langue originel où nous sommes nés . Même dans les différentes régions françaises où l'ancien patois n'est plus parler . Ex l'accent anglais ou l'accent italien ou allemand n'est pas le même accent . 👅👍❤️

French language in Montréal is compulsory , oeople have to fight tp preserve the french language so they are much more defensive about it. Being american in Montréal is not as exotic as being american in France where the people will much more tolerate a non french speaker.

Hello, where do you live in france ?

My ex only did only wear stilletos untill the point she walked bad in flat shoes and could run in those. I never understood

So to you, being French means being under the government of France. Nope. Being a citizen of France does not make you truly French. My ancestors left France for the New World five hundred years ago (1612). I am French in ancestry and physically while being American of nationality. You could live in a stable, but that wouldn't make you a horse.

Pretty basic questions I believe most french people could have answered.

First thing who cares I leaved here a long time I don’t give a shit

From the USA. WHERE AARE YOU? YOU DISAPPEARED 11months ago. Why? Love to see a new video.

All can get fat, and anybody get some fat, but most people around the planet never get *that* extremely fat. *We all know that much more fat than muscle reduce life expectancy* , and *people generally want to live.* They want to breathe, and their doctors tell them how. And the depressed ones who don't want to live tend to stop eating, because it's just cheaper and it works well for them when they have lost even the will to go shopping. Yes, there's an element of Judeo-Christian shame, fat being mentally associated with the sin of gluttony, but there's also a huge element of *shared, genuine medical concerns.*

Bottomline, It's like dating Oscar the Grouch.

It seems hubby takes a shower every day...😅 Not in the list!

They are grumpy, that's all.

Excellente remarque sur les classes de 22 élèves en moyenne. Un vrai probleme, c'est bien de l'évoquer :)

My grandma is french ....I have 1/4 of french blood 🩸

I see what you mean about you being loud

Something not mentioned here .. don't show up uninvited especially someone's home or a get together you not be welcomed

Your video is interesting . You still speak loud at least on your vidéos.

Really disappointing when they just disappear for months and months with no update whatsoever. Hope everything is okay, and an update comes soon. It’s been 11 months.

If those rules can be generalised, it's that the French attitude to food is a lot more formal than the English-speaking world. Americans are generally much more used to eating with their hands - a lot of American dishes are kind of designed that way, and most American dining (along with most American culture in general) is very informal (that's usually a good thing). You're given an knife and fork and you are expected to use them. Again, most Americans tend to eat with just a fork and only use their knife to cut up larger things. In formal French dining, throughout the course you always hold your fork in the left hand and the knife in the right and apart from cutting, you use the knife to push food on the fork. Also, the things on your plate are designed as a whole dish and designed to be eaten together, not in sequence. So you have a piece of each thing on your plate on your fork and in thus your mouth at the same time, rather than one thing after another. And take much smaller mouthfuls than typical Americans would. Taking big bites out of your food is a huge non-no! And last pointer, take your time eating! American restaurant culture is to get the diner fed and out ASAP so that the table can be used for another party. French restaurants expect that each table will be used by one , maybe a maximum of two parties, throughout the course of an evening sessions; American restaurants will expect three or maybe four. On and Americans, please do not call your main course an entrée - this makes no sense in French as it means starter.

I don't know where you lived in France but in most of Europe we have AC, TVs in every room and screens on our windows. The thing I don't understand is why americans insist on keeping those slide windows. Our windows can be opened two ways, even in the bathroom, have more insulation because we have multiple sheets of glass with air between them. Also it is very difficult to break this tipe of window. We don't use so much AC because our homes are insulated since construction and you can add even more. I only use the AC when is really hot, 40+. Below that or when is cold my house design takes care of me. Finally, way too many cars but that's understandable, you've ruined your public transportation for individual vehicles.

Restaurantes also cook your food in a part of the restaurant where you can't see either. Are you going to next say that folks that eat out are wierd to trust that the staff aren't spitting in your food? Will you demand that everyone start eating at hibachi grills and those that don't are wierd?!

Girl are you ok?? We absolutely have credit card payment tablets that servers bring to your table. And if you're responsible...you're paying attention to your credit card and the transactions being made.

The UGLY Americans ons sont FOU

Thank you! ❤

I hope your health is good. Well. I immigrated to Montréal and loved living there, although I later immigrated to Switzerland, where I am now, which I also love. Suggestions: Montréal is a city of festivals. Practically every week. Go. My favourite boulangerie is Mamie Clafoutis on Ave van Horne in Outremont. Première Moisson is also nice. My favourite cheese shop is Yannick Frommagerie 1218, rue Bernard. I lived in Outremont and Mile Ex. There are too many great restaurants to recommend. Try them all. What neighbourhood are our living in? EDIT: Eat Québecois cheese. Every week I went to Yannick and simply asked to try something new. You won't be disappointed. Canada also makes some great wines. Drink local.

Nous aimons les Russes, mais nous n'aimons pas les soviétiques ; de la même manière, nous aimons les Yankees mais pas vos hommes politiques et ce qu'ils font. Nous n'aimons même pas les nôtres, alors pensez, ceux des autres! Je trouve que vous êtes bien et que vous parlez très bien le français. Merci de nous aimer plus que nous ne le méritons vraiment.

Les américaines ne montrent pas leurs seins sur la plage mais elles sont beaucoup moins prudes concernant leurs fesses ^^

like my country the best of both worlds: civil = american; religious = Spanish, ceremony

Pas compris le coup du "oui"... Sinon OK pour le reste

6:41 I don't get it. Practically speaking, how do you tell a dangerous driver on the road to go fuck himself if you can't use the middle finger? Do you have any other visual signs or codes for the road? How does road traffic regulate itself, under these conditions? Because you're brave reading so much, more humor on this topic: - ua-cam.com/video/NbHiNIDu3XU/v-deo.html - ua-cam.com/video/5cU6TxpG_p4/v-deo.html
