If I open with a French phrase or question to a Frenchman I get a french answer which I don't understand! awkward. The pleasantries like bonjour, merci, s'il vous plaît are useful but beyond that as a tourist with no French language skills I will always have to ask if they speak English right off the bat.

Same here and the same thing happened to us in Germany we would just say hello or excuse me followed by a do you speak English? I'm making my new year's resolution to speak another language.

Right. It's funny that guide books will tell you how to say all the important things completely ignoring the fact that you'll also have to understand the response.

I learned some Spanish and Portuguese for trips and when I used phrases in those languages as a nurse w/patients that is exactly what happened. They’d start speaking rapidly in their language.
@petehowey4909 Жыл бұрын
I didn’t have this problem. The key is to butcher the pronunciation so poorly that they immediately know you don’t speak French.

I went to Paris about 5 years ago, with a fluent French speaker, so I never had to learn or even try to speak the language….and after the first word I said in English, i felt like everyone hated me! Now taking my mom there for my 40th bd…and I feel a bit anxious for not knowing the language at all. So thank you for this very useful video! 💕

We will be in Paris for 6 nights, then on a tour of France for 2 weeks. So, I would like to know some basics. The first half of this video was easy and stuff I already knew, but then I was lost with the longer phrases in the 2nd half. Guess I'll have to watch this a bunch more times. Anyway, impressive job on the video and a well deserved thumbs up!

Excellent video! Short and to the point. Thank you. My wife and I have been to France many times and are thinking about retiring there. My biggest challenge with speaking my very limited French is not those basic words to say, but rather understanding the answers! What I usually find that works is to say, something like "Parle lentement, s'l vous plait." And if I've said that correctly the person will usually happily slow down their speaking.
