    Many of us in the …
    Many of us in the young generations and having been born and bread in cities and studied recently (including semesters abroad) don’t have French accents or only slight ones when speaking English… Get used to it. It’s different when i go visit my family in the country though… True.

    maybe ur english isnt as good as i thought, considering u lack the ability to understand a compliment when u see one. i actually complimented u but mentioned u have a really convincing amer/uk accent. i could clearly hear ur french accent when u said words like prepare that translate from french into english. what a great representation of the rude french stereotype, .

    you, my dear, are an interesting find..you proclaim to be a french native but your english lacks a french accent, at least, to my american ears. funny but you seem to possess more of a british vernacular..none the least, i love your videos and find them educational but you seem to ramble with randomness, which can be confusing

    先日本語の等しい言葉を捜していたのですが、「なるほど」のほうも当てはまるでしょうかな。

    Merci!

    French is a very …
    French is a very difficult language to learn. Did you learnt french for nine years? Because…you made lot of syntaxe mistake. That would be : Je peux plus parler Français maintenant mais j’ai étudié le français depuis neuf ans. (I can’t translate that sentence it could mean many things.) tu m’a aidé merci.

    Keep up the good work I really encourage you to keep studying french! :)
