    • @@guilhemtapie7134 I think both are true. As an advanced language learner these are the types of comprehension problems you run into where the context or intonation would indicate his meaning but someone who hasn't had as much experience in building that context of American/English speaking culture wouldn't catch that. I'm learning Persian right now in Asia and I try to keep track of these situations where my questions are misunderstood because it's not necessarily a vocabulary problem but a contextual problem. What's obvious in one culture and background might be not so in another. Jokes are especially tricky because the predictable patterns and shared cultural knowledge aren't there and it's really easy to just look like you're making another error in a language you're not as familiar in. These aren't even problems that are unique to language learners but also cross-cultural communication of all kinds like inter-generational communication within your home country or someone from a poor inner city talking to someone from a wealthy suburb.

  • The confusion for the girl with the life in Paris question happened because of the way you asked the question! You asked “Est-ce que vous pouvez dire en anglais qu’est-ce que vous pensez de la vie à Paris?” - which sounds like “Can you say in English ‘what do you think about life in Paris?’” - as if you’re asking her to translate that sentence! Next time try “Est-ce que vous pouvez me dire en anglais *ce que vous pensez* de la vie à Paris?” which is like “Can you tell me in English what you think about life in Paris?” Bon courage ! ;-)

In your last "How many languages do you speak" video I said I would like you to visit Paris when I replied to your question and that's what just happened. Asking basically the same question in either English or French is something pretty exciting, there's nothing wrong with it especially in a French-speaking country. It was so fantastic afterwards. Keep on making these kinds of videos.

  • I was at a hot springs resort in Iceland in the 70's and started talking with a group of Icelandic high school students, 16-18 years old. I was 20, my buddy 22. I had English and limited French, my friend English and some French. The Icelanders each spoke at least 4 languages, Icelandic, English, plus at least one other Scandinavian language and a Romance language. Swedish/Norwegian/Danish/Russian, between one and three of the 4. French/Spanish/Italian, between one and three of those and a few spoke German. They also had sophisticated questions about US politics and culture. I later studied Spanish, Portuguese and German and brushed up on my limited French, partly inspired by that interaction with teenage polyglots as well as travel and business in Latin America and Europe.

    • @@jeanbolduc5818 neither USA nor England have numerous regional languages. The weight of English is detrimental to linguistic diversity and heavy language policy is needed to preserve minority languages face to English. On the other hand, Spain and Italy have many regional languages like Catalan, Basque and Galician for the former and Sicilian, Sardinian and Ligurian for the latter. These 2 countries have an additional reason that France doesn't have to preserve its regional languages: they had fascist dictators (Mussolini and Franco) who both tried to suppress their regional languages in favor of Italian and Spanish. Therefore, there is an incentive to do the exact opposite.

    • Luxembourgish is not a separate language but a Moselle Franconian dialect of West Central German! Even if Luxembourgers always claim that it is a language of its own! On our side of the border, the people speak a dialect that is largely identical to Luxembourgish (minus perhaps the countless French loan words), but we know that it is just a dialect and not a language of its own. Until 1984, Luxembourgish was still called "Luxemburger Platt"! On our site there is "Trierer Platt", "Kowelenzer Platt", "Hunsrücker Platt" and "Eifler Platt"! With your selfish declaration of 1984, when you unilaterally proclaimed Luxembourgish a "language", you not only divided our common dialect area, but also divided the Moselle Franconians as an ethnic group! And why? All because you wanted to be a bit more like the Swiss! But guess what: you're not!
