    For French people the jeu de paume is very famous because the room where they played the game at Versailles is the room where the representatives of the people swore to write a constitution. So the jeu de paume is famous because it was the place where French democracy was founded

      Democracy was not founded there. It was not founded in france. It was not founded in the 18th century. It was not even the beginning of french democracy

      I don't know where you're from, but in the Midwest at least, we have pickleball. Named for the pickle boats (I forgot what pickle boats are, but they don't have anything to do with real pickles). It's tennis for people too short to ride the adult rollercoasters (pretty much lol, but it's just tennis close the the ground)

      ⁠@@maeghanscott9804we play that too in louisiana, but pickleball is actually very popular, its actually the fastest growing sport in the US. We played a game called gatorball. The rules are
      1. Throw a pass with a football to someone in front of you
      2. If you throw the ball while a teammate is behind you its a turnover
      3. If a receiver catches it they have two options
      a: stop moving where they catch it and get to throw the ball from that point (players given some leeway for momentum
      b: keep moving, but if they get tagged its a turnover at the spot of the tag
      4. The offense has 4 downs to score (we reset downs whenever we feel like its a first down)
      5. You score by reaching the opposite end of the gym (for us the endzone is past the baseline of the basketball court)
      6. If the defense intercepts it, its a turnover and the same options for rule 3 are given

    Fun fact: the name of the sport 'Tennis' was derivated from the french imperative 'Tenez' (I think it translates to 'here' in English, but in a sense of warning the other player) that the 'Jeu de paume' players said while (or before) serving. It was repeated by the English and transformed to 'tenetz' and then to 'tennis'.

      @@molybdaenmornell123hopp5 There could be a confusion in the sense that 'tenez' doesn't really mean 'here' and would rather mean 'hold', but in this case, 'tenez' doesn't directly translate to 'hold'. I would understand it as: "Here, I'm giving you the ball (serving), beware" (similar to what they do in volleyball). And in that case, I don't think 'hold' would be the most appropriate translation. But since I'm French and English isn't my native language, I believe you if you say it is.
