We knight you "member of the brotherhood of baguettes". which is nice ...
Even more when we see the slaughter that was the new region created and there name that are a total insult for the constitutive nations and culture of France :/
I mean... it's like they try to totally whipe non-parisian culture :/
But, as a french, I just read the subtitle 'cause I dont understand at all what he is saying...
Nice effort, but still a bit failed IMO ;)
French is a hard language, dont take it lightly !

Aaaaaand people all over the world reading his comment.
You can really hear the difference between native and learned French here 😂 I understood most of what Barby said but when the guests started talking it was all ???????? (I took French for about 6 years total)
Martie B. I don’t know why but I understood DOCSEVEN the best. Maybe because my teacher made us listen to so many different French accents that we never focused on the Parisian one.
I took French for almost 6 years but I understood everyone perfectly fine. It was still a relief when the guests started talking.
Yeah, but you know. It is always complicated to speak slowy (i mean clearly atriculated words) when your are a native speaker. because it is extremly rare to see someone who can says at least some words in french, so a lot of the french people doesn't know how slowy we must talk to non-native speaker.
Actually, I had an easier time understanding Tony than Barby. But that probably stems from the fact that I am swiss because I had to learn french since fifth grade and having German (well...Swiss German dialects) as my native language.
As a French, it was waaay more difficult for me to understand barby than the two other ones.
You're making progress in French, that's so nice to see !
Thank you for the effort, and happy birthday :)

Literally almost understood nothing.. 🤣 But French surely is a beautiful language. 👌🇫🇷
French speakers did understand this

Fun Fact: La Réunion (Island in the Indian Ocean) was once called Île Bourbon, and that's where Bourbon Vanilla got it's name. They still grow lots of Vanilla today. It's also a beautiful volcanic island that's perfect for hiking!
Yes i'm suprised he didnt talk more about Reunion Island..
Another Fact: The island was also once called Bonaparte, and it was once part of Portugal.
@@JakeSueldoAnimations Vasco da Gama discovered the island. But the French took over. French and English thought for the island for many years. I can't remember the French king who decided to populate the island with people who were given the choice between going to jail for stealing bread, food in general, and prostitutes. With soldiers to protect the island. I love the history of my island.
Wow, I'm actually understanding a lot! Such a beautiful language, hoping to learn more. Love to France from Germany
Nous aussi vous nous aimons (même si j'ai pas encore eu le temps d'apprendre votre langue 😅). Love to Germany from France. 🇫🇷❤️🇩🇪

Dude, I’ve been following this channel for over 3 years now, and the content is just getting better each time. Thanks for it all, keep up the good work!!
Hey 👋 is he speaking good French 🤔
nope, some parts are unintelligible because he wants to focus more on the pace than the actual prononuciation. There is no shame in speaking a language you are not fluent in slowlier, and if there is no shame in trying to speak it fast, what's the point if it's to butcher the pronounciation to the point it's getting hard to undertsand?
@@scrimherolex1496 His pronounciation is.... I'd say 5/10... And sometimes he did sentences with an English syntax but with French words
Italy did not exist during the annexation of Corsica by France in 1768, the island belonged to the republic of Genoa.
Me "Ajaccio" est un nome Italién!
We bought it. Fare and square
@@literallythesenate581 Ajaccio is the italian name used by the italian and now by fench people but we all know that the right name is "Aiacciu"
@@literallythesenate581 Ajaccio is in the Ligurian language (ancient language of the Republic of Genoa) and Aiacciu is in Corsican language. All Corsican towns and villages have the official French name in Ligurian language (except 3 cities: Sartène, Ile Rousse and Saint Florent which are in French). The small villages only have their names in Corsican language.

As a bilingual * english - french* canadian, i must say, your french is excellent!! Continue ton bon travail, Barb!! De la part d'un demi croissant😂
Honestly, he speaks wells, the accent as a french, could be worked on though
I'm actually surprised that I understod 90% of the video without subtitles (stopped studying 3 years ago). Loved the concept tho
Wow!
I never studied French, and I was amazed at how I managed to understand many things without having to read the caption.
I thought French was a difficult language, but it is more like Portuguese than I imagined.
Great video, by the way
It's a latin language, after all.
Portuguese and French are both Latin languages so they share a lot of similar words because both were based on the Latin version of said words. Words are not what makes French difficult is the ridiculously numerous tenses that each have different forms based on both the person, the mood, the group in which the verb belongs in and the arbitrary exceptions. Additionally it probably is one of the latin language with the most arbitrary grammatical rules all with at least a dozen nonsensical exceptions that obey their own rules. This of course affects entire sentences because of other rules that each have specific conditions to uphold to if another rule is at play. Add to that accent and other weird stuff like this: eéèêëcçaàâáoœöôuù that determine how you should pronounce a sylable (except when it don't thanks to exceptions). Non spoken consonants that you can't identify without knowing them of course, every word being male or female and having rules that determine how you should write your articles or even certain verbes (good luck figuring out which mid conversation if you are not native) and a lot other types of words as well as prepositions that obey their own set of rules, which are of course depending on what other types of words you use etc. And add to that a really weird pronounciation style for a latin based language. All that with even more exceptions of course.
French is very easy in appearance and can easily be understood by other latin based language speakers but what makes it hard to actually speak is the amount of BS rules you have to go through to actually make a semi grammatically correct sentence that is above a basic level. Having actually researched a bit on the latin languages I am not familiar with, I actually found that french seems like a weird grammatical hybrid of a lot of notions that are more developed in other languages and is especially good (or bad depending on your point of view) at making every single one of these systems dependants of one another but almost nonsensical in their execution.
Portuguese? Really? I’d say Portuguese is waaay too similar to Russian
I've learnt more French in this video than years of obligatory French lessons in primary school ever did.

Eh bien, je vais essayer d'écriver cette comment en francais, dans l'e´sprit de la vidéo. Je suis tout pour un youtube plus multilingue. Dernièrement j'ai été regardé beaucoup de vidéos dans d'autres langues que l'anglais avec des sous-titres et ca a été cool. Les sous-titres ne doivent même pas être si bon pour s'amuser avec le vidéo. Il y a beaucoup de brilliants créateurs youtube qui parlant francais, russe, coréennes et plus qui a mis des sous-titres décents dans les vidéos, mais ne sont pas vus en raison de la barrière de la langue. Je pense que c'est particulièrement vrai pour les personnes qui seulement parlent anglais. C'est dommage, mais merci Barbs de faire avancer cette cause!

This is Albi, the city have the biggest brick cathedral in the world
Hey Barbs!
Great video, and I really appreciate the effort to speak French (which you did really well!).
However, I'd like to point out a few things.
First of all, you can say capital and not préfecture, as the latter describes the administrative center of a département, and not a région. A région is comprised of multiple départements.
Second, the picture you used for Toulouse is actually a picture of Albi.
Third, Normandy didn't have nothing to do with France back when they conquered England as they were vassals under the king of France (just like Provence for example).
Fourth, it is said that Guyane is very diverse because it has many "Amerindians, Creoles, French, Blacks". However "French" is not an ethnicity. All of the guyanais are French regardless of their ancestors (this mistake is only in the subtitles, not the the French presentation).
Last, your way of breaking down the regional cultures, though understandable to distinguish one from the other, seems to give the impression of a really shattered France, superficially united by a central power.
I am a French, born from parents from Brittany and Alsace, two very proud regions. However, the regional pride is not in opposition from the national one, it is complementary. Yes, independentist movements existed decades ago, but the remains of them are so minor, that describing both regions by it seems misgiving (if you tell an Alsacian that he is more German than French, even though his ancestors spoke Alsacian (a germanic language) and not French like himself, he won't like you very much). We are all French, attached to our regional cultures and proud of the regional diversity of our country.
However, thank you very much for this focus on our beautiful regions!
Isn't French an ethnicity and a nationality? The nationality referring to everyone who is born in France or has a nationality of the country, while the ethnicity refers the white 'indiginous' population of France if you will. I'm not sure though but since German is also an ethnicity, i thought this would be too.
@@don_p7546 I'd say yes and no. Yes because you can take someone's DNA and, thanks to our knowledge of which group lived where, figure out only from this if he's of "French" origins or not. However no, because surprisingly, France (even metropolitan French) is much more ethnically diverse than most other european countries (Italy, Germany, Hungary, etc). For example, the people of Brittany (west of France) are more descendants from the celtic people of Scotland and Ireland (because the celts invaded the land in the fifth century) than of the Gauls, who are typically referred to as the "ethnic base" of the French. Another example is the north of France, which is ethnically closer to flemish, another germanic subgroup. Last example of this non exhaustive list, is the French basque, who not only ethnically have much more in common with the Spanish basque, but additionally, have very little in common with any other French or Spanish ethnic group. As such German is a much more unified ethnicity than French is. What unites us however, is our French culture, history, pride and feeling of belonging to the same country, people and destiny.
@@don_p7546 I think the point was that the white-French people in French Guyana don't really have that more to do with metropolitan France than other people in French Guyana.
Awww Barby when you said that "à bientôt" at the end it touched my heart so much. I speak French too. I love that you're doing what you love and I love it too!! Come to Namibia one day. I'm your biggest fan 💓

Basque people even have their OWN region in Spain (the Basqe country/ País Vaco). Its probably in the top 3 of most important regions in Spain.
Actually, nowadays most people don’t speak French in the Chanel islands and the elderly can sometimes speak an English and French mixed language called ‘Jèrriais’
Jèrrais in Jersey. They (sometimes) speak Guernésiais in Guernsey and Sercquiais in Sark.
Ca fait plaisir de t'entendre en français !
Note: We also have our own language in Alsace, the historical region of Grand Est that is the closest to Germany. The old generations (+50 years old) still speaks "alsacien". It's like german with a weird accent and some french words here and there.

Hey guys ! Your channel is amazing. Such strong content I would love the videos to last longer. I'm not so thrilled about Hauts de France being qualified as the drunk uncle but I guess some prejudices die hard ! Keep uploading, you're the bestest !
We good neighbors always helping each other love France from Spain 🇪🇸♥️🇫🇷
Hi random Spaniard, love from your French neighbor in Occitania!
Hi random people
J'adore quand les anglophones parlent en français, il y a vraiment un charme !
J'adore ce que tu fais, bonne continuation ;)
Il a un accent allemand mdr
@@thewaterploof6969 Oui c'est vrai, mais je pense que les deux accents sont assez similaires au fond
The Waterploof l’anglais et l’allemand sont deux langues de la même famille donc c’est normal je pense
@@Silver-yu8lf Oui les deux langues ont beaucoup de ressemblences même dans certaines prononciations
@@Terminn Ouais les gars vous avez raison mais avoué qd même que c'est drole ! ^^
THUMBS UP PAUL !!! I was really surprised, but in a really good sense, to hear a whole episode in my mother tongue ! You're handling it really well, congrats !
If I may... at 3:02, the square that you're showing is actually not part of Bourgogne-Franche-Comté, but of Grand Est region; it's the Stanislas square, THE pride of the city of Nancy.
Cheers, and thank you !
Ok, you did france’s and Germany’s regions.
Now as an Italian I want the regions of Italy.
Me too!
Yes!
I'm French and even I want a video about it. And the cantons of Switzerland too.
Wow merci pour cet effort! I never thought in my whole life I would hear an American speaking in French about our regions and presenting some French youtubers, that moreover I do know. Thanks barb!
Votre niveau de français est vraiment génial !
En tant que Français j'apprécie la vidéo !
Il est oublié que en France on fait aussi beaucoup de pets !
Et on boit de la pisse, c'est notre spécialité et nous aimons ça beaucoup !!
Et nos fesses sont plat.

2:57 That's Charles the Bold (1433-1477), but in French he said "Charles the Bald" who was a much earlier, Frankish king. You must have slipped him the script but he got the names of the kings in English mixed up.
Charles le Chauve (823-877) was the grandson of Charlemagne.
Charles le Téméraire (1433-1477) was the last duke of Burgundy and the grandfather of Charles Quint (king of Spain).
There are too many Charles in this story ^^.
Wow super effort, vraiment, bravo ! Super video
Barbs : says Mont St Michel is normand
*angry Breton noises*
Incroyable travail Barbs ! Absolutely amazing job
I'm trying to learn French right now so this is really helpful
bonne chance :)
As a fellow French learner, I appreciated this effort a lot!
Lorsq'un vidéo de Régions de France en français est fait, un vidéo sur le Royaume Uni en accent brittanique serait trop drôle!
I can do this xd
En tant que francophone moi-même, il a fait un travail incroyable en parlant français et en enseignant à tout le monde nos régions en France. Merci Paul👍
