Thats the most English French woman I’ve ever seen

[@bartonwishart9994]

Mac Leod ...great name of Scotland.

[@SuzanaNour]

She's bilingual and bicultural, so that makes sense.

[@Wazkaty]

Discovered that her parents are from the UK and then moved to France, so she IS reeally the most English French, growing up as a French but living in English at home

[@liorbeaugendre6935]

@@Wazkaty oh ok as a French I was sceptical the whole video... she looks nothing French, her face looks really british to me

[@GuillaumeRx]

@@liorbeaugendre6935Fellow Frenchman here. To be fair, France is a very very ethnically diverse country. We don’t have a “French look” really. 2000+ years of being in the middle of Western Europe routes, wars, 3 empires, invasions, and a few immigration waves from all over the world will do that for you. But I get your point though, she feels British indeed.

She deserves more than what she got from the crowd or the KZbin algorithm. I’m French, lived 10 years in the UK and that was well observed and damn funny!

[@cyrilhaessig27]

She is doing well at the moment, her Tour is pretty much sold out.

[@notimportant7495]

not funny

[@Drakholm]

Looks like said algorithm brought us all here together. Yeah...she has sparks, but overall a bore tour. The material is solid, but she's either rushing or stretching. There's more to audience engagement than acting like a printer when one person laughs. All in all, I think she'll get better though. Was probably just nervous or what not. Teasing Frenchman is an endless bag. 🤪

[@anthonycollins5305]

Aren't french men Muslims...........

[@Monkeyboysdontknow]

@@Drakholm I agree that her timing is way off, which can make or break ANY comedy routine, but I found her material to be no better than a 6 on a ten scale. However, as an American, I realize the subject matter is not of my experience, so I may be missing some subtleties.. Regardless, I do love most English and Irish humor, though, and have even bought a region-free blue-ray player to watch region "2" media that was/is unavailable for region "1" (thankfully, not as big a problem as it used to be).

I’m glad that the vicious rivalry between the two nations is a thing of the past, but this cultural rivalry is awesome 😂

[@KingoftheJuice18]

I'm envious of her perfect bilingualism.

[@gordondavies7773]

Many Europeans can switch between 2 or more languages without a pause. Welsh or Gaelic speakers do it all the time. As do Quebec Canadians or Hispanic Americans. Many Indians are bi-tri-quadrilingual. Arguably, bilingualism is the norm and mono-linguals are a minority

[@KingoftheJuice18]

@@gordondavies7773 It's true that Superman would have been just an ordinary guy on Krypton.

[@user-jl3vm4hx7s]

Although, her accents are extraordinary

[@chelseafolk]

​@@gordondavies7773 this is patently false. Many Europeans also know a bit of english. But most people are not fluent in more than one language, certainly not more than two. And even among Hispanic americans, roughly 2/3 of them are bilingual, and their Spanish suffers. I don't know what you're smoking, but it sounds like you read a lot more of what you're talking about than actually experienced in life.

[@mottthehoople693]

@@chelseafolk not false at all...my grandfather who was Polish could speak fluent Polish French Italian German Russian English Latin...and he could switch between languages on the fly If there was a word with the same meaning...only person I ever met that could do that.. as an aside he could also do complex maths in his head to 6 decimal places He was a metallurgist and mechanical engineer..

[@LynxSouth]

@@dan-nutu Nah, it's just what the Brits call an eggplant. As she said, they like to use French words.

[@dan-nutu]

Yes, they do that when it refers to food, e.g. beef instead of cow etc. But it's really just French after all

[@OmbreDunDouble]

​@@dan-nutu In french we call the english "les rosbifs", reminding us surely of the appetizing toneskin your people takes on our beaches. 🫡 Truly the beef/bœuf things seems to be the other one business for both of us. We also say "vache" to say cow, and to speak english like a spanish vache is about not speaking it quite fluently to say the least. 🐄 On the other hand, "a biff" in english is a bon coup-de-poing. "Un biff" in french is an unresolved conflict. So here it is to ponder who throw the first entrecôte across the channel. 🥩 A mystery, which, I assume, will stay unmatched. Here was my preposterous raffinement about our bovine entente. Gentleman, have a Good day, on my side I'll get back to reading La Fontaine "the frogg and the cow". 🐸

Her English accent is insanely good, you can tell she must have moved there as a teen to have an accent that well developed.

[@maomuller3378]

I'm French. We do use English words in French, but apart from corporate speak (which is pretty recent) the only English words we use are words that only *we* use - English people don't use them. We made them.

I bet the girls gave him a gorgeous name tho, like: Prince Flufferton And since they're in the majority eventually only responds to that no matter what your dad calls it. And since your dad is the one walking him he eventually is on the corner yelling for Prince Flufferton to come back. And hopefully he'll laugh to himself and see how daughters just make everything in life better!

[@rbudl2164]

That is true what she said about "anglophile" in the French dictionary. LOL

[@paulflorent9979]

French here. I just checked in the 3 main dictionaries (Le Robert, Le Larousse, Le Dictionnaire de l'Académie française)... and it's true. Aouch.

[@GijsvanDam]

[@a.m928]

Thats a severe burn. Poor english

[@Suzanna-chez-moi]

I have no doubt it’s true, BUT “sympathetic, sympathy (sympa for short)” has different meanings in the 2 languages. In English, it implies a heavy dose of pity (hence her joke), but in French that is absent… Tu es très sympa means you’re very nice (I like you). It’s something I’ve heard used a lot by French expats in Quebec. It’s not used commonly by the Québécois, so it confused me initially… (Anglophone Quebecer… bilingual, but English is my maternal language). I probably still don’t have the nuance exactly right.

[@Suzanna-chez-moi]

Quebecers favour the word “gentil, gentille” if they want to say you’re “nice”. They are not telling you you’re “gentle”.😄

[@lindsayalisonstevens3592]
