Why Learn French? Here's 9 Reasons To Learn French (Revisited)║Lindsay Does Languages

[@cazg2001]

Honestly I chose French because I wanted to prove to myself that I could learn a new language this year and it seemed like a good choice for an English speaker. But I'm falling more and more in love with the beauty of the language every day. How melodic and musical it is. French TV and music. The beautiful phrasing

[@LindsayDowLanguages]

That's so cool! :D

[@user-pc4i8ege55]

I had only one reason, literature, and it was enough to start learning French :)

[@LindsayDowLanguages]

Awesome, thank's a great reason! :D

Hello Shakepeare 😂😂welcome to the 21st century!!

Something unfortunate and worth mentioning is that in France itself, French is often imposed at the expense of other minority languages like Occitan, Basque, Breton, etc. The French government is generally very intolerant of allowing other languages besides French in official domains, even when those languages are endemic to the country itself alongside French.

[@LindsayDowLanguages]

Thanks for bringing this up. Exactly why I give a nod in the video to many other languages (including Occitan, Basque, Breton and Catalan) spoken in places alongside French! :) Personally, I know that learning languages like French and Spanish has sparked an interest in learning more about other languages that are used in places where they're spoken. If I can help to spark that inspiration for others too then that's great.

Not sure why I clicked on this video considering the ridiculous number of languages I already have on my "to-study" list but now all I can think about is how to incorporate French into my schedule somehow 😂😭😭 Hadn't really been interested in French up until now but it's been inching it's way into my list, and just hearing you speak French in the video made me realise that... yeah maybe I do think French sounds super nice! Ahhh I hope you have a video on your channel about how to decide which languages to focus on because I'm going to be really needing that!!

[@LindsayDowLanguages]

Ahh good topic idea! Added to my "video to do list"! ;)

[@LindsayDowLanguages]

[@johnb.johnson1490]

@@LindsayDowLanguages not really some languages are a waste

[@darlingtara669]

[@johnb.johnson1490]

Thank goodness for REVISTING THE VIDEO👏👏I was seriously irritated by the 1st one. This one is more elaborate & non cloutish...Merci boucoup

[@Madslav398]

Will 9 reasons to learn German be getting a revisit? I started learning all that time ago because of this series?

[@LindsayDowLanguages]

Not in the first batch but we'll see!

[@LearnFrenchLesson]

Bravo pour une superbe vidéo! Merci comme toujours pour ta passion pour le français ❤️🇫🇷❤️

[@LindsayDowLanguages]

Merci! :)

[@AfroLinguo]

Great video. The point about the "accent circomflexe (^)" showing that there was an "s" at the position of the letter is something I really didn't know. Eventhough I am a native English speaker. haha

[@LindsayDowLanguages]

Thanks! Yeah, it's a fun little fact, isn't it?!

[@ThatCatholicNurse]

Première personne!!!

[@LindsayDowLanguages]

Bien fait! ;)

[@andrewmiller6754]

HOSHI and Indila are some amazing French singers

[@LindsayDowLanguages]

[@psychokinese]

[@LindsayDowLanguages]

C'est vrai! :)

[@darlingtara669]

[@LindsayDowLanguages]

oui merci :)

[@ladonnatutt7851]

Any French students here want a study buddy?

[@andrewmiller6754]

I thought mandarin was the number 1 language

[@LindsayDowLanguages]

I don't think I said French was number 1 (most spoken)? It's definitely up there! :)

[@41cookiesbabe]

I thought it was too but I guess it makes sense for it to be English if we’re taking into account non-native speakers

[@shainarue]

@@LindsayDowLanguages I think they're referring to the slide at 1:01

[@LindsayDowLanguages]

Ahh I see! Yes, it's English when you take into account non-native speakers too... ;)
