💁🏼♀️ : La Tarte Tatin
Me : LA TATATA ?????
hahaha :)
😂😂😂
🤣🤣🤣
Me: TATANG?
hahaha this is hilariously cute!!
The problem is if I went around pronouncing these things correctly where I live nobody would know what I meant
haha ^^
Absolutely.
That is si true
Yes! My mom is American but the French say she has a perfect accent. She says I have a great accent, but even my French teacher doesn’t understand me. 😅
It's a bit of a balance, I'd say. It depends how commonly appropriated the word has become. I don't leave off the S in Paris when I say it in America. But if I'm in France or speaking to a francophile, of course I would not pronounce the S at the end of Paris and would pronounce the entire word a bit differently. In America it's basically "PERRIS." In France it's basically "PAH-RI". It helps to be able to switch back and forth to avoid seeming pretentious. But really, no one should be shamed for speaking WELL! That's just wrong. I wish everyone would just communicate as best they can, in a respectful and friendly way. We'd all be happier that way and could have fun conversations...
I think what messes English speakers up is there are so many words in English borrowed from French and mispronounced. It's like we have to unlearn English pronunciation while we learn French. This video was defintely a workout for me.
Oh good I'm glad you found it helpful ;)
I mean why should English speakers be expected to pronounce every single word correctly anyway ? An approximation is more than enough.
No not at all, it's just for people who want to improve their pronunciation :) thanks for watching!
StreetFrench.org Ne vous inquiétez pas mon commentaire était adressé à ceux en général qui se sentent supérieurs par leur prononciation des mots étrangers :)
there is also a heavy Germanic influence as well the two languages have very different sounds, marrying all of the sounds to play together is what makes English one of the hardest languages to learn. I noticed as well that some of the sounds that French language makes, sounds like speech impediment in English.
I live in US and am fluent in French, so saying correctly comes natural to me. I get a variety of reactions, from friends making fun of me, or attendants at a bakery not understanding what I want, or thinking I'm a snob. I take in strides, but refuse to say it wrong.
ah yeah I see :/
One time I was in New York, and one of my friend really insists on taking me to a French bakery and I just prononce the name of what I want like I would have do in France and the girl who was serving looked at my friend (who's kinda french but people don't assume he is) and I could see her eyes scream "please help me out of this!!!"...
@@lenamorverand5626 Hahaha same here. After living several years in Strasbourg, I went to a fancy bar in NYC, I wanted to order a specific sparkling wine on the menu so I pronounced correctly "crémant d'Alsace" and the bartender was puzzled.
I’m french canadian and I used to work in a coffeeshop back when I lived in a english speaking province. I would always say « croissant » the natural and normal french way for me, and customers were like « wtf you talkin’ about? ». Then I would be like « ...Ohh sorry, I meant a "kwuh-ssantt"!
@@lenamorverand5626 😂
You've actually taught me something I didn't know: the distinction between patisseries and viennoiseries. Merci!
I’m pronouncing them like Joey 😂
hahaha:)
Bla blu ble 😂
Joey: Je te flouppe Fli.
😂
Toot de la fruit! 😂
What am I doing here? I already know all of these as a French speaker lol. But the comments section had me dying 😂😂
haha^^
La meeeeme 😂😂
EXACTLY!!! 😂😂😂
Same gurl..same ..😂😂😂
Lol
I work at a bakery in the USA and we sell macarons and everyone who comes it pronounces it "macaroon" (like the coconut treat) and people have even gone as far as to correct me when I say it correctly. It drives me insane I wish I could show them this video! !
AHAHAHA that's so funny xD I'm sorry you have to go through that
😅 I hear you! It’s so funny 😂
Haha you should make the coconut and serve them instead if they keep correcting you!
It's not a great hardship, I had a fresh baked macaroon from the market this weekend and it was delicious, crunchy and chewy in different parts and it wasn't too sweet as well. Nom
Honey I can’t stand it when people call them macaroons instead of macarons too!! like what gives 😛🤦♀️🙄
I work in a coffee shop and people will order an americana; the word is americano. So, I feel safe in assuming that these are the same people who are coming into your shop. 😄
She’s so pretty and I really enjoyed just hearing her accent
I pronounce each one of them perfectly in French when they are in my mouth!! 😋😛😝😆
hahaha
A holiday in France is 1000% more satisfying if you take a little time before hand, to learn some basic French. The response from everyone you come in contact with, is so happy that you’ve taken a little effort to immerse yourself into French culture they’ll be always willing to help you and make you feel welcome.
Forget it, unless you live there, (at least Parisians) don’t take well to hearing incorrect pronouncing…they are just like that. This came from someone I knew yrs ago. She was a college student where I went.
I've never taken French but one clue someone told me is that they don't like saying the last part of a word with strong letter sounds.. it is uncouth sounding to them.. what we Americans don't like about some speech in our country.. those who add a twang sound to their words and combining words like.. "all of you" please listen.. shortened to "Y'all" hear.. Not intelligent sounding.
You know what is really impressive? You guys responding to all the comments. Holy shit I've scrolled through most of 'em and every one has a reply. Love the video.
Oh of course! We really appreciate you guys watching our videos and taking the time to comment, it means a lot to us and we're really humbled that you enjoy our work :') so of course we want show everyone respect and try to reply to their comments if we can!
Congratulations on getting one too!
I haven’t taken French since 1977 in high school. I was in French II and our class went to London, Paris, Normandy and other places in France. I was 15 and in 10th grade, a sophomore in high school. I do wish I kept going. I love the French culture, country, food, and yes, these desserts!! I have WONDERFUL memories of our trip. One of my oldest friends (the friendship is old not the two of us! 😉) was with me on that trip. She was a grade ahead of me. We still talk about that trip and the beauty of France.
When you're French and just here because you got hungry 🤣🤭
haha :)
Trop
I think I will die hungry if I went looking for French food in France without proper pronunciation...😪
Hahaha it'll be ok ;)
No, just point. We decided when we visited France that we could eat anything as long as we ate it while walking.
Just find a Mickey Ds
biswajit dehury you point and say “ ca, sil vous plait” ca , suh “
Point to food and you'll be ok :)
(Just say "je ne parle pas français"
It means I don't speak french)
From a native :)
the way french pronounce chocolate is so cute. its like the happiest word ive ever heard lol if that make sense
Haha :)
Yes you are right, I so much adore the French Chocolate ("shokola") sound that at times, esp when in a store for shopping, I often murmur "Shokola", or "Pain au Shokola" or "Cruissant du Shokola" and enjoy the sweetness it pours into my ear and heart.
Perhaps, it is the only French word I like to listen to----any other word with R sound "ghey-ghey"---which French is fraught with---I abhore the most....ha, ha.
(SHAKEEL AHMAD, U.K)
Went into a French bakery years ago and said ‘Je Suis un de pan raisin s’il vous plait’.
haha ^^
Lol
Big lol
Lmaoo they probably had a good laugh 🤣
I hope I can understand. Hahah
Perfect pronunciation sounds in the beginning. Even your small chuckle sounded French.
I was very convinced I would learn something. Thank you for your video!
Great video! I'm a Baker and work in a kitchen with a French exec chef and French sous chef. I always get a little nervous saying the pastries names in French around them. Usually they just laugh a little if you screw it up really bad. But they are cool about it. Now I can practice a bit and find new ways to embarrass myself!
wow so cool that this video is useful for you :)
These things do not sound appetizing when I say them.
hahhaha xD
Right? I sound like I’m coughing up a loogie :(
😂
No way! I feel like making out with pastries after listening their names! French is love!
Right. If your not French it just sounds forced
I love your personality! I would watch even if I wasn't interested in learning French! Thank you!
French: Les Choquettes
Filipino: I'm shooketh!
haha :)
😂
I think these would taste like donut holes.
I find it difficult to pronounce any of those pastries while I'm eating them. 😋
Ahahaha xD
Haha! My favorite comment!
Please don't be scared to speak french words with your own accent.It's so cute❤
Julia:
French is sweet to listen (except the R sound), but too hard to learn, esp its pronunciation are just a jocular Fun... Lol!
I love your voice, accent, personality and the enthusiasm you have sharing your expertise in such a beautiful language!
Glad you enjoy it!
We're traveling to France in March 2023 and I've started practicing with a friend and the Berlitz book. You're video is wonderful, I've saved it, and will practice with you again and again. Merci.
You presented this in a very charming and understandable way! You're a lovely young woman and I appreciate your efforts!
Merci!
I love the French language. I could listen to this video all day. Thank you for a delightful diversion.
Thank you too!☺☺
You make learning French so relaxing. Thank u
Practice make perfection. I will repeat it every day. Thanks.
Very helpful, thank you! I recently moved to Belgium, and sometimes I get shy to order the stuff when I am at the boulangerie...I often just point to some of the stuff because I was unsure how to pronounce the words, but this is a great help! Merci beaucoup x
Oh great we're so happy you found it helpful :) thanks for watching
In Spanish we call "mille feuilles" the same way. It's "mil hojas"!
ow cool !
Love your videos, you are not only teaching the pronunciation but the culture as well. Big thumbs up. Please do more.
Thank you, I will :))
Thanks for the knowledge❤
0:56 In Québec, we pronounce "un" and "raisin" differently. For some reason, in France both sounds merged into the same one over time. The same way they pronounce "patte" (leg) the same as "pâte" (pasta). In Québec, there is also a clear difference in pronounciation. In France, you can't tell the difference and you have to guess from the context of the sentence.
It’s quite interesting to learn as i’m currently take french as my third language in university. Thank you 🥰
aw cool glad to hear that! :)
Not a good option, indeed...Desole!
Love it, very clear intonation with pictures/example, make me want to learn more French language
I worked in the bakery at the Hotel Sofitel in Minneapolis in the early 90s. This brought back great memories! Thanks!
I just LOVE languages!! Thank you for sharing!! 💙
De rien ;)
Thank you so much for the video..this is really helpful for for pastry students to know on how to properly pronounce the items..
De rien! Thanks for watching :)
Excellente vidéo sur la prononciation de ces différents pâtisseries et desserts, chapeau bas….
Thank you! Great pace and clarity.
Actually saying ‘mille feuille’ is so easy to Turkish speakers! Cause we have an ‘ö’ sound which it’s corresponding to the ‘eui’ sound exactly!
Ah nice!! :)
In turkish there are so many words that have been borrowed from french
Everything was difficult for me as a newbie to French! But this looked fun to practice as I love all the french pastries!
Haha keep going! Hope you're having fun learning French :D
Nice. I love this channel. Keeping the French language. Nice. Thanks. Keep it up.
Beyond awesome! Your videos are so amazing!
I came here to learn how to say "croissant"
:):)
CWAH SAW
My lips are so tired trying to follow her 😆.
haha take a rest ;)
IKR hahaha
Mickey Shaw Ahaha ;)
Hahaha
Hahahaha
Thanks a lot dear ☺️ It's so useful for learners like me to hear a Native-french speaker pronounce these words 😍
ah cool glad it helps :)
Thank you for the tutorial! I will listen to this several times before I can get this right.
ah you're welcome :) yeah keep practicing^^
for someone who speaks filipino, english, and spanish, french pronounciation is really hard.. it's so hard to produce the sounds, not only the letter r but also the vowels that are nasal.. i really wanna learn french and at 31 i hope it's not too late..
Oh it's never too late! Check out our free e-Course, find some French speaking friends, practice everyday, take pronunciation slow and steady ;) if you really want to be able to speak French, you can do it! Thanks for watching
oh god im filipino and french fascinates me so much and im glad i found this channel!!
subukan mo muna spanish.. mas madali.. ang dami cognates at kuha na natin agad ang pronounciation.. 1 year ko lang pinag-aralan ang spanish.. at halos lahat ng mga spanish youtubers naiitindihan ko, maliban lang kung sobrang bilis, dahil ang bilis magsalita ng mga spanish speakers.. sa pagsasalita naman mabagal lang ako pero kaya ko na makipag communicate.. trust me ang dali lang ng spanish.. after spanish, siguro pwede na french.. stepping stone, tutal marami ka madadalang grammar rules ng spanish papuntang french dahil pareho naman silang romance languages..
suggestion ko lang iyon.. ikaw pa rin, kung gusto mo agad french, wala problema.. sayang lang ang opportunity to learn a third language immediately.. kung nag 1 year ako sa spanish, feeling ko sa french matatagalan ako.. ang hirap ng pronounciation nila.. pero ang dami ko agad nagets na grammar sa french dahil sa spanish..
La paz Mundial oh yes yes very gracious of you to give a suggestion. I mean, it's not that I'm against learning Spanish but like gusto ko munang i-try yung French?? I know na madaming cognates ang Filipino and Spanish due to hiram and colonisation but ang dami rin kasing cognates ng French and English- Norman Conquest, and globalisation I mean. And pagkatapos ng French, baka Italian and then Spanish. There's just so many options and it's nice to know that you have all of these. After some time parang namamaster ko na rin yung gluturral (?) 'r' sound sa French pero yes learning languages is so good and satisfying haha
sinabi mo.. it's very fulfilling especially when you start to see the results.. imagine i only used to visit english and filipino channels but now another world has opened itself to me because i have learned their language.. good luck sa pag-aaral ng languages.. it's so fun to be a language enthusiast..
We adore French foods here! French has contributed so heavily to our English, but much of the pronunciation changed, of course. Although we know words are not pronounced the same, it is difficult to remember just how to change them back (croissant, tart, eclair, beniet, etc are all English spellings).
Aha nice :) thanks for watching!
I searched for crepe pronunciation and this video popped up! I really enjoyed watching it. Merci beaucoup.
Glad you liked it! :))
Thanks! Very practical and I'll definitely review periodically
How sweet and pleasant girl. Keep making videos. There is something absolutely authentic on your appearance.
Merci!! Ok we'll keep them coming :) thanks for watching!
Agreed! Very endearing and likeable no snobbyness or pretentious air detected
Merci Olivia :)
Keep it up!
Agree, I could watch and listen to her all day.
That was wonderful! Thank you, @StreetFrench.org. Unfortunately, it’s 2 am here in Australia and I have no way of accessing any of the wonderful french pastries I am now desperately craving! 😢
ah you're welcome ! ☺ ☺
Merci! I really enjoyed this video! You’re so sweet and easy to understand! 💖
Glad it was helpful! :)))
So good to have this to practice these words. Thank you for posting
ah you're welcome :)))
I am from the south of France and actually we differentiate the sound IN from the sound UN. In most France these are pronounced similarly as a nasal "è". In the south of France we have a nasal "é" for IN and a nasal "euh" for UN.
Ah cool ;) thanks for watching!
Nous avons également 16 heures. collation aux Philippines. Et merci beaucoup pour votre cuisine que nous apprécions aussi
ah cool :)
Thanks for this video! You inspired me to start learning French! (Seriously, it’s was you and this amazing channel) 💖💖💖
aww I'm so glad to hear that :)) good luck with French :))
Love this! Thank you!
I studied French in high school until we had an exchange student from France who said that foreigners can never master the /r/ and they will always sound foreign to French people. So, I became discouraged.
ow yeah it's definitely hard but it doesn't matter that much :) don't feel discouraged :))
Of course we will sound foreign. The exchange student probably spoke English with an accent, but I’ll bet you understood them.
Ça ne faire rien!
It does not matter unless you are trying to pass yourself off as a native speaker.
My sister did the « EU test » in French and her level is « college-educated native speaker ». She needs this level of proficiency for her work. I, on the other hand, can only get around town, shop, and make small talk in French. I still love the language.
I managed to fool a French person into thinking I was Belgian - still a native speaker just a different accent. It's doable!
Plus, what does it matter if you sound foreign? At least you can make yourself understood!
Colour with a K Kolour.
Why am I watching this from the other side of the earth ? Kind of a heartbreaking reminder of how good all our bakery stuff can be good.
La viennoise au chocolat, le Paris Brest, le Croissant et le Kouign Amann quelles inventions fabuleuses.
hello from the other side of the planet :):)
I study French, and love to practice, that's why I subscribed to your channel. Not many people speak French where I live. (Palm Beach Florida USA).
Love this video!! I'll study this before my 1st trip to France! Merci!
Wonderful! :)
Don’t know why, but this is an appeallingly hypnotic video. Le croissant alright
:)
You’re so adorable! 😍Thank you!!! 🌸
De rien :)
I’m an American guy and I lived on Ile St. Louis for one year. It was wonderful. I enjoy your pronunciations; your voice is crisp and pleasant. That you are beautiful goes without saying, but I said it anyway.
Thanks a lot to the channel. At last I got a native French person where I can hear(and learn) the proper pronunciation. I bought a book for learning French 6 years ago but could not read the words with proper accents so the book has been sleeping on my shelf since then. Today your video made my dormant wish to rise again. I am native Bengali and the French accents are really tough for me but I hope I'll learn that one day.
ow cool ! :)
Nothing inside just sugar outside...sounds like you're talking about me
Haha what
fatym kiwi 😄😄😄
Vous avez décrit les chouquettes comme si vous parliez de moi, vous avez dis qu'elles étaient vides à l'intérieur et couvertes de sucre à l'extérieur, ça me ressemble. C une blague tqt
ouai tkt j'ai compris ;)
@@Street_French empty inside, (faking?) sweetness outside.
I don’t even buy French pastries that much but hearing French words kinda soothes me so here I am!
:)
Without doubt the most valuable skill you can learn on the internet.
My year's going to go great if this is the video being recommended to me by CZcams just 3 days after new year.
I loved it!! So satisfying even though my tongue just gave up and tied itself into knots. 😅Great job guys!! 💜💜
haha ! thank you!and yeah i'm sure you're going to have a great year :(
A (French) school break at 4pm?? I went round to my mums today (England) and my little brother was home and playing Apex by 4.15!!
Excellent video by the way, thank you so much for making it and helping us all with pronunciation. By the by, your English accent has quite a bit of American accent to it and there was one thing you said that sounded like you'd spent some time in Scotland!
AHAHA! You're very welcome :) thanks for watching!
I firmly belive that this is the only one who pronounce croissant right
Haha merci :)
Enjoying your series. I especially appreciate the slow speed at which you speak. I am a rank beginner, and have trouble picking out words when native speaks talk at full speed. Thanks again.
ah cool merci :):)
Just got back from France. I don’t speak French but I do work in the world of opera so I have to deal with French pronunciation quite often, which I try to get as close to correct as I can...
Anyway, my favorite pastry from this trip was frangipane. I probably wasn’t pronouncing it exactly right but most people seemed to understand what I wanted right away. I tried the frangipane everywhere we went! So delicious.
Bonjour, merci pour votre vidéo, est très intéressant . Actually I studying French and English at the same time and I loved your video, French is the mor beautiful language in the world . You should talk about the music in French, programs, books and more food. Bonsoir :)
thanks for the feedback, we're glad to hear you like the channel :))
Merci for this video! I'm visiting family in Paris currently and I'm picking up a little French. I'm amazed at how many words are the same in Cambodian and French! It's most likely due to France's occupation of Cambodia. Anyways, it makes it a lot easier to understand French. The pronunciation is still hard though! :)
ow cool I'm glad you're enjoying our videos, and I hope you're having a nice time in Paris. It's a bit cold these days :(
This is so awesome thank you!
That was so useful merci!
When you’re a native English and Vietnamese speaker with sad high school French but that’s okay because the French crossover in both languages makes life easier
My great grandmother spoke 7 languages except French! I had 2 years high school French but too formal. I speak semi fluent German and am used to more emphasis on consonants instead of French vowels. Thank you for this video. I actually love opera cake ...unfortunately I've no boulangerie near me because you've made me HUNGRY for sweets lol
Guten morgen,
the same is true for me. I have had a French course back in 1987, but I found it too odd to learn, though qualified that course.
Later on I joined a German course, and found that a pure and standard language, but alas could not complete that course, which I regret the most, while Russian and Polish (both Slavic languages) are Rubbish only.
Now, I intend to learn Spanish and Italian, but feel short of time for that purpose, while No to French or Russian/ Polish, still exists.... Lol!
(SHAKEEL AHMAD, U.K)
By the way I too know/speak 07 languages, but I feel French to be the most weird, or jocular, and Russian/Polish the most hard to learn, let alone speak.
Thank you for posting. You have a relaxing voice and video. 💜
Oh thank you! glad you enjoyed the vid :)
It was very helpful for me , not only for pronunciation but for learning about the French pastries also
ow cool I'm glad:)
Only French pasties and Croissant are good to eat, but not the French langue, per se.... Lol!
Reminded me of one of the Key and Peele episodes with the French waiter😁😂
haha ^^
That ‘mille feuille’ is just way too foreign for English speakers. Our mouths can’t even get the right shape to produce that sound 😂
Ah well. Cwasson is easy.
Hahaha nooo I think you can do it! "Maybe think of it kinda like Mil - f - i" like saying "I" in English, hope that helps :) thanks for watching!
StreetFrench.org Haha great tip! Merci. Actually I just prefer to eat it rather than say it 😄
Hahaha moi aussi ;)
*crwassõ there's actually a guttural r sound in there. So c+guttural r+w...is not a particularly easy combination...
Yeah it can be tricky
Lovely food with lovely names presented by a lovely person.
Merci! This is exactly the kind of thing I wanted!
You're welcome!☺☺
Here I am learning how to pronounce french baked goods instead of doing actual grown-up things.
hahaha :)
It's nearly impossible to do low-carb lifestyle in France. 😂
haha true!
Vraiment ! Trying to do that would drive me insane with food-lust.
Loved this! Thank you.
de rien ! 😊
I enjoyed watching and listening to your video, even though I don't like long videos. You are a great teacher 🌷
thanks :)
