French (française) is a Romance language that descended from the Vulgar Latin of the Roman Empire, as did all Romance languages. French has evolved from Gallo-Romance, the spoken Latin in Gaul, and more specifically in Northern Gaul. Today, French is one of the most widely spoken languages in the word and a French-speaking person or nation is often referred to as Francophone in both English and French. French is an official language Belgium, Benin, Burkina Faso, Burundi, Cameroon, Canada, Central African Republic, Chad, Comoros, Congo, Democratic Republic of the Congo, Djibouti, Equatorial Guinea, France, Gabon, Guinea, Haiti, Ivory Coast, Luxembourg, Madagascar, Mali, Monaco, Niger, Rwanda, Senegal, Seychelles, Switzerland, Togo, and Vanuatu. French is spoken as a first language in many parts of the world outside of France, including the Canadian province of Quebec, and among large communities in the Canadian provinces of Ontario and New Brunswick, and numerous other places including parts of the United States such as Louisiana, Maine, New Hampshire, and Vermont. Meanwhile, the Persian language (Farsi) is classified as one of the Western Iranian languages. Persian has had a huge impact on other languages and cultures, mainly in the Middle East, Central Asia and South Asia and holds official status is Iran, Afghanistan, and Tajikistan. Persian has strongly influenced numerous Turkic languages, as well as well as Armenian, Georgian, and many languages in the Indian subcontinent, eventually reaching Southeast Asia as well.

Persian and French are both Indo-European languages. Iran and France throughout the history had close relationships. During Qajar period many Iranians traveled to Europe and many Iranians learned French as of their second language. That's why Persian language has a some French influence too.

Some of those words are used in greek, too. It would be interesting if you made a video about greek and french. For many decades, till the '60's or '70's, french was a prestige foreign language, until english became more prominent, so a handful of french words were inserted in our vocabulary, mainly about clothing and car parts. There are of course greek equivalents for them, too. For example, any greek would understand what a pare-brise is [windshield], but not many would know the greek word for it

In French many letters are silent. So when outsiders read it they also pronounce the silent letter with it and over the period it becomes part of the vocabulary.

Interesting fact at 4:00, in Javanese (Indonesian local language), we say "jambon" for "pink". I think early Javanese people thought when some europeans (especially Spanish & Dutch) ate the ham, they (the Javenese people) thought the Europeans said "jambon" to refer about the colour of the ham, which is pink, not the word for ham itself.

As Persian didn't trust Russians and British, the education system was put in place by French from early 20th century. That's why there are many French words in Persian. Similarly, the public administration in Iran was reformed by Germans. In 1916, there were only 80 public servants in Iran, In 1936, there were 120 000 public servants. And finally Swedish Major Harald Hjalmarson was put in command of the Persian Gendarmerie. Thus, Russia and UK were put out of any reforms in Persia which became Iran in 1950.

I directly understood every single word ahah :D That's interesting to see at the same time the differences of understandindg between canadians and french people ( I guess it's because we don't sound the same so we don't hear the same neither, don't know if that makes sense) :) Oops sorry I have just re heard a sentence that she said (With Classeur) and she is indeed from Québec and it was very clear, bebakhshid 😅 It's just that they sounded more American with the other sentences, my bad 🙏

Louise ! That's wonderful!! I think you'll really enjoy some of our upcoming videos, both the Persian ones, as well as the French ones. As I said, I will have other French speakers in our future videos. I totally understand. After all, Mike and Jackie have lived in Ontario for a while and are speaking English more than French now, even if they were born in Quebec. This will obviously have an impact on their accent. Even though I want my videos to be educational, my main goal is to have them be entertaining and bring cultures closer together, and course, there will always be something to point out regarding the choice of words, accents, etc. At the end of the day, it's meant to be fun :) Thank you again!

خیلی عالی بود، دمتون هم گرم

What a fun way to recognizing similar words. It would be more intresting, if you could say, from which language These words originary are.

[@BahadorAlast]

Thank you Pouran. Unlike a lot of our other videos where the origins of the words vary, in this case, all the words are French, and hence the name of the title :)

(0:40) 'canapé' also exist in portuguese with the same spelling and meaning, but in Brazil we use it more for small slice of bread or toast on which are placed ingredients like sauces. (0:58) 'camion' is 'caminhão' in portuguese. (2:14) 'chance' also exist in portuguese with the same spelling and meaning. (2:44) 'Manteau' is 'manto' in portuguese, but usually connected to religious people wearing it. (3:38) 'Geste' is 'gesto' in portuguese. (4:50) 'Séchoir' loosely resembles 'secador' (pt). (7:08) 'Bronzer' could be 'bronzear' ou 'bronzeado' (pt). (8:25) 'Cravate' is 'gravata' (pt)

[@putatdaun]

I so amazed how Farsi and France words are quite similar?? Were they come from same people long time ago??

[@ch3riebby]

OMG IM A PERSIAN SPEAKER AND I DIDNT KNOW FRENCH AND PERSIAN WAS SO SIMILAR, well apart from some words like ananas meaning pineapple or like alleman meaning germany.but thats it, buh like WOAHHHHH!

[@aliaziz6319]

Kereeevaat 😊

[@4go10fox]

I lost it when she said Keravat with persian accent! So hilarious

[@mtm4671]

08:30 ahahaha, gold accent 😂🤣🌹 she nailed it

[@naborNabokova]

Didnt write the last two translations. I eventually got the words from their discussion, but pls try to put 'em all on the bottom. Other than that, great video

[@BahadorAlast]

I usually don't put up the sentences for people who are watching to try to guess them without seeing it word for word. Eventually the actual translate is stated in the video though.

[@victor319]

Hey, when are you gonna do a video Bulgarian vs Macedonian or Bulgarian vs Serbian? Cause those languages are really very similar to each other and I am really so curious to see one (:

[@BahadorAlast]

Absolutely! I definitely plan to. I don't know any fluent Macedonian speakers in Toronto, but I will certainly eventually manage to find one :) Please reach us on Instagram for future suggestions so we don't miss your comments :)

[@sarkaniemi]

Of course. All slavic languages are similar. Polish, Czech, Serbian, Croatian, Bulgarian, Macedonian and some more (Russian too) are of the same language family, the Slavic language group.

[@yemanjainrain]

Can you also make a video for similarieties between Turkish and English,we also have so many words in common:)

[@BahadorAlast]

Sure! Great idea. Could you please reach us on Instagram for future ideas/suggestions

[@yemanjainrain]

Sorry I meant Turkish and French actually,my bad:)

[@programinc7581]

I speak Farsi hebrew dutch german and english i love these videos bahador

[@tahirrizwan6759]

Amir Asadi seriously? :O I speak Dutch, Urdu, English, Farsi, and German. I must be guessing you’re from Holland too?

[@stefanogiordanengo6982]

Tahir Badoella Farsi??? The language is called Persian in English. Farsi is the endonym.

[@tahirrizwan6759]

Stefano Giordanengo yes Farsi, I know very well it’s called Persian in English, but I feel comfortable calling it Farsi. It’s a habbit I can’t easily get rid of. Like there are several Indo-Iranian languages that have no English equivelant like Urdu, Hindi, Pashto, Balochi, Azeri so it makes sense to me personally to call it Farsi :D

[@sarkaniemi]

Amir how come you speak Hebrew?

[@theoneandonlyhere]

Kossher mige baba. Dota kalame yad gerefte mige 'I speak' LOL.

[@DiamondMaker-is8qe]

The thing is, a traditional old word for "Foreign" in persian is "FARANG", which refers to France. During the Qajar era, most people when going to europe for education, mainly went to France. Thus, France in persian is kind of synonymous with Europe or Foreign. And the story also explains how french has influenced persian.

[@joshuaultrainstinct5082]

Can you do French and Italian ? :) Idk if I already say it i've forgot sorry if I already say it XD

[@BahadorAlast]

Sure, I will certainly try to organize it :)
