Yup: In french the verb "prétendre" means to claim, to affirm.

@haggispouch81239 жыл бұрын
The French cognate for 'pretend' -- prétendre -- can mean 'profess' or 'say.' In effect, she is asking him whether he calls what he does 'modern jazz,' but she is confused about the meaning of 'pretend' in English. Why she feels comfortable bad-mouthing Berlin (other than French anti-German sentiment because of the World Wars and many previous ones), I don't know.
@weskoki9 жыл бұрын
She meant ''prefer'' i guess.

weskoki Possibly, but that doesn't fit what she was saying. Probably she was fooled by a false cognate, as I suggested. It happens quite frequently when one is speaking a foreign language.

She probably meant "claim", "intend". Both are meanings of the french verb "prétendre". A common mistake for native Portuguese speakers too.

i really really wonder what's going through his mind right after she tells the 'you pretend to play modern jazz?' question... his face at this moment is the best expression of incredulity i've ever seen... :) and he also seems to be deciding 'do i leave now or do i stay?' or maybe 'is she trying to make fun out of me, or is she completely stupid and doesn't know anything about jazz'. the fact that he decided to stay doesn't speak in favor of the interviewer
@cassianowogel9 ай бұрын
She makes a very common (and quite expected) mistake. Because her first language is French, she thinks “to pretend” means “to intend”, since the latter is the meaning of the French verb “prétendre”. Portuguese speakers tend to make the exact same mistake (I'm Brazilian btw), because in our case, to intend = “pretender”. But it is funny as hell lol.
