I want to see Americans pronounce difficult French words. Like, squirrel is tricky for non-Americans. Ecureuil is hard for non francophones to say.
I think you mean squirrel is difficult for non-English speakers, right? The only way Americans say it differently is to drop the e and say it in one syllable. Everyone else pronounces the e and with 2 syllables.
I want to hear Americans pronouncing English words the way Brits do. Half of these "wrong" answers were closer to how I'd say them (from Scotland).
It's not a "ree"noceros, so it's not an otoREEnolaryngologist. Also, that's basically a Latin word anyway.
@@andymcl92 In French, we learn english and pronuncing the way english people does. When i studied it in school, my teacher told us US pronunciation is almost the same than english, you just have to tell the words while imagining chewing a potatoe :)
I like to understand who Americans peoples prononce " anticonstituellement" 😂 or " gynécologue" or " bissextile" or " buraliste" or " potelet" or " copropriété " or " dyslexique" or " Ornithorynque"
Interesting you chose the word squirrel because that is the same word Germans choose as a challenging word to say for English speakers: Eichhörnchen, which I find fun to say lol. I tried pronouncing French words by site reading and NOPE, I'm terrible at it.
Funniest thing is that most of these words are french originally and were imported into english langage like theatre, paradigm, temperature etc. 😅
Latin bro
@@anilsoyunmez9280 No French
Theatrum - Théâtre - Theatre
Paradigma - Paradigme - Paradigm
Temperatura - Température -Temperature
Testudo - Tortue - Turtle
Those words didn't come directly from latin in the English vocabulary like it did for the so called latin languages; Spanish, Portuguese, French, Romanian, Romansh. They came from the french language because French was spoken by the Royal families and was the administration language.
@@yvanvong16 Not all of them. Some get borrowed directly from latin during english renaissance. I think paradigm and temperature are two of those. For theatre you are right. But correct me if im wrong.
@@anilsoyunmez9280 i think most of them were borrowed from french when Guillaume the conqueror took over England.
@@zaydalaoui9397 T’as totalement raison mais les anglophones ne comprennent pas forcément quand tu dis Guillaume le conquérant ils disent William the conqueror ou William the Bastard
As an Englishman, I found the pronounciation of the words just fine, for example "turtle". I feel the lady was looking for a specific regional American accent, which is obviously not the sole correct way to say the word in question, as there are many variations. The French subjects all clearly had a great grasp of the English language, so it seemed a bit of a non event, in my opinion.
Your last phrase basically sums up the Buddhist concept of emptiness...what here ISN"T a nonevent?
But UK people frequently do not pronounce the "R", so that is what she was referencing, I believe. TURTLE not tuhtle. And the American did cite several variations in pronunciation. That being said, we Americans are guilty of quite a few mispronunciations. Often, we mispronounce "mispronunciation".
The" r" of the word turtle, should be spelled to not confuses others with others words like tut, tuht, others wprds and abreviations, english is a neolatine idiom, the consonants should be spelled in day by day.
@@Hrng270ur is a digraph. The u with the r are pronounced as with er in English.
We French say "Tortue 🐢" simple as that. We don't rely on pronunciation.
I've never seen so many people from France on World Friends before , loved them , especially the guy

@@lissandrafreljord7913 What Arab Girl ?
@@christophermichaelclarence6003 Watch world friends a few months ago. FrencGirl with colonial heritage. Had a very critical attitude rudeness- In the comments everyone said she was "Very French"🤣
It would have been interesting to hear both the full french pronounciation of these words, as well as their french equivalent.
Hopefully they will be our French pronunciation in the upcoming video
For Intel, we French don't really pronunce our words. No need to bother it
Most of the words presented here are actually of french/latin origin before even being transposed in English so in most of these cases, the french pronunciation would be way closer to the original version of the words than english pronunciation
You almost got them already. Most of these words were french words so every time they failed to pronounce was because of the original french pronounciation.
@@Guillean22The English Language came from our French language. 40% of it 🇬🇧➡️🇨🇵
@@christophermichaelclarence6003Yeah, I was wondering why some of the words were stolen. Such as the words Mural, Connoisseur, Chauffeur, Entrepreneur, etc.
Watching her hit these people when they're pronouncing it right is r/mildly infuriating.
Agreed!
As an American I both disagreed with once’s she passed and agree with ones she didn’t
@@_LifeofDy She's not judging on pronunciation. She's judging on accent.
She was being just really pedantic, which is frankly a European specialty, so no Europeans can complain without looking like hypocrites.
But bonus points for the reddit r/mildlyinfuriating reference 💯
@@Ivan-fm4eh How tf is pedantic a european specialty ? How is any character trait any country or continent's specialty ? Lmfao
I think Jazz was way too harsh with this, at one point it was even difficult to watch. They pronounced the words just fine.
I think Jazz is extremely articulate and has the deep understanding of a native English speaker who paid attention in school, isn't lazy and likes to articulate words properly. I hate when people butcher English I think she should have swung that hammer HARD.
@@MichaelDespairs Except, she's not speaking English.. she's speaking "American".
Which means most of her obtuse pronounciation.. is actually INCORRECT !
Talk about the kettle calling the pot black. 😗
@@goofygrandlouis6296 "Naur"
thank you
I thought it was just me!
@@goofygrandlouis6296 You can't even pronounce the word "No." Try it. Start small, try the word "No." Did you say "nauurrr" well sorry you're illiterate. America is the target audience of the world by the way, not the UK.
I don't believe anyone mispronounced the words. Jazz didn't take into account that everyone pronounces words differently even in the U.S. She just wanted them to speak like Where's she from.
Yeah, especially the theatre one, I know people who pronounce it as “thee-uh-tuh” or “thee-eh-tuh”. It’s still the same word.
Let’s also have Americans pronounce some advanced French words.
I agree with you, we can see how this sort of concept is a terrible idea.
no
No it's fine alltheir doing is just trying to pronounce words in American 😊
I think that’s the point though, for them to replicate how she says it.
Just wanna say that all the French guests were very intelligible for me as an English speaker, like I can understand them 100%. And they're accents are so cute!!
And just wanted to add to, so many people study English that it comes in so many accents, and for the most part, we pretty much understand most of it, and it's not really a big deal. So if you're feeling insecure about your accent, don't worry too much and just speak it to the best of your ability and most English speakers will try to understand you :)
Ça va alors, si ont prononce bien des mots français que les anglais ont emprunté et qu'ils y ont mis un nouvelle accent. xD
And I want to remind you that you don’t have to be nice all the time. If they’re saying a word incorrectly then they should be hit, thats the game bruh. They don’t speak perfect English and thats ok, most ESL learners never will.
This judge is bad. I’m not even through everyone trying to pronounce “thorough” and it’s already evident. Most people have pronounced it the same exact way during the first round and she is only bonking some of them. The second round is an improvement and she’s still penalizing them.
Maybe you can't hear the difference because you aren't a native English speaker?
@@Prometheus4096 Maybe I can’t hear the difference she is hearing, no. I am a native speaker though. 🤷🏻
@@motherpanic If your language lacks a certain sound, you don't hear it the same way. Which is one of the reasons why people have accents in the first place.
Where are you from?
@@emmanuelwood8702 America.
I'm French (born and raised in France later moving to an English speaking country) and they said most of the words correctly and I feel like they got a bonk on the head for no apparent reason which made me mad I remember having an accent but ppl still understood me but she bonked their heads bcs they didn't have an American accent that's unfair imo
thats the whole point of the video
@@TehStormOG no it's not they said the words properly just with an accent they can't change that that wasn't the whole point of the vid it wasn't a point at all
The thing that makes it difficult here is that most of the words are actually very similar in french :
Yacht is also yacht
Temperature is température
Movie theatre is cinéma but we've got théâtre for theatre
Otorhinolaryngologist is otorhinolaryngologiste
and Paradigm is paradigme
You can tell how the Americans even the British how much they used our French Words.
It goes from the Hundred Years War.
🇫🇷⚜️⚔️🏴🦁
Yacht is a dumb word. The origin is with a normal A and a hard K. Jaght or Jakt. Yacht just butchered the origin and doesn't even fit the language its in.
Yatch is a frisian word, imported by dutch and english idioms .
I think she was often arbitrary about what she would pass or reject. I would say she was being pedantic, but her explanations were often simply wrong and didn't even describe her own speech. Most of the contestants had rather thick French accents, but even when their pronunciation of the word was perfectly fine, she often rejected it. Trying to please her couldn't have been much fun for the contestants.
I was getting confused at first because some of them that sounded wrong to her actually sounded right to me but now I see what this is about it's not pronouncing difficult English words it's pronouncing difficult English words the way Americans pronounce them.
The judge was not doing it right -- if you ask people from Washington State, Southern California, Ohio, Alabama, Florida, Maryland, Massachusetts, and Maine to say "yacht" you'll hear 8 variations. It's very hard to find a word that all Americans pronounce in the same way because just like in other countries there is a wide range of dialects here. Pronouncing "theater" with a French accent is fine -- there is nobody in the USA who won't understand what you mean. 🙂
The judge was overly focused on dialect instead of pronunciation. Heck she even mispronounced mischievous -- dialect doesn't get to insert new syllables into the word. 🙂
J'ai l'impression qu'ils prononcent correctement les mots et que je ferais totalement pas mieux X). Mais quand elle dit le mot en anglais je vois pas de différence
je suis anglais et ils ont prononcé la plupart d'entre eux correctement. le juge était juste vraiment mauvais 🥲
T'a vu mois aussi je pensai ça je parle la langue aussi et ils ont dit presque toute le mots correctement
Yeah. I’m an American and she did a bad job judging.
I fell like they should've had someone who teaches English to non-English speakers, because they were saying some of these words correctly and she still marked it as incorrect. . .
I couldn't pronounce French properly no matter how hard I tried. These people are doing a fine job AFAIC
honestly try harder then,
@@francecb410 I can't make some of sounds. For example, I can't roll my R's. That's not a character flaw...lol
I'm much better at pronouncing Germanic languages, which is why I took German in college over Spanish or French.
@@pamelagileno5483 I speak French Spanish and English and I am also learning German, but I am French so it's natural to me. I just don't know why others can't. Accents really are a weird thing aren't they ? But it's same, I don't have German accent
@@francecb410 I think Romance languages come easier for many. I’m just not one of them🤣 I’m better making the guttural sounds of German.
@@francecb410 because muscles aren't formed the same. It's called evolution. Did you go to school? Or do you just don't listen??
Some of these words were pronounced fine - they just got a bop on the head for not pronouncing with an American accent 😂
Their pronunciation was pretty bad actually she ok'd them when she should have bumped them several times.
@@emmanuelwood8702 no the prononciation seems good for me
@@Theswitchers2 Yeah but English is your second language though. You don't hear the differences.
@@emmanuelwood8702 you very much do... there's diffrent accent's around the world so... it really doesn't matter babes.., and don't assume everyones second language is english just cause it is doesn't mean you're bad-
@@Raven_stan What?? You need to rewrite this it doesn’t make sense.
In re: "mischievous" -- One of my English teachers in high school *hated* the "miss-chee-vee-us" pronunciation (since there's no I after the V) and she threatened to give a "zero for the day" if anyone said it like that in her class. Since it's not a commonly used word, it never came up, but her making a big deal about it stuck with me, so I always make sure to use the "miss-chiv-us" way instead as a result.
I was also going to say something about this! It’s technically incorrect to say it with the additional syllable and ‘ee’ sound. As well as, the stress is supposed to be in the MIS just like it is in MIS-chief.
I guess this word have a normand etimology, it's a hard word in pronounciation til today.
Level hard. A hard latine word to say.
In my country both are correct
I would have waited until I was no longer in her class then said it just to irk her. 😂😂😂
It is interesting which lessons stick with us.
It reminds me of when I was in school: My teacher would correct me when I called something difficult "hard". She would say, "that's not hard, this is hard" (banging on the table). What a bitch. 😂
I went to school with Jazz!! She's an amazing person!!
Jazz must be fired!
For being uncharacteristically (for an American) pedantic? Because French people specialize in pedantry tbh
@@Ivan-fm4eh don't need to feel inferior, hon
@@liul They shouldn't feel inferior. French people have great coffee, cigarettes and croissants (the Three Great Cs).
I think it was a bit unfair because she excepted the west coast American accent for each word which is not the only way to pronounce English words. The third girl from our left to right, seemed to pronounce a few words properly but with a non Californian accent and she still got bumped lol
@@Ivan-fm4eh Other people in the world smoke WAY more than us... please STOP this cliché about French people!!!
How about the word:
supercalifragilisticexpialidocious?😂
english speakers will be like 'these words are so difficult i'm sure they will be confusing to these people who speak another language' and then the words come from latin and the other language is french
Me watching her hit the people who pronounce "thorough" the same as me 👁️👄👁️
To be perfectly honest it’s not uncommon for Americans to pronounce the same word in different ways depending on the situation or mood. Case in point the word literally. Usually it becomes a four syllable word when people want to add emphasis. Interest is another that can go multiple ways.
Ann Dee i was repairing in one detail that can help usonians and bahamians, belizeans to pronounce theses neolatines hard words, it's follow the eclesial latin and modern latin pronounciation cos modern english and middle, and hodiern english are neolatin idioms cos came from franc normand idiom, the brother of french parisian idiom that is spoken in all the world theses 2 idiom came from eclesial latin idiom the same base of hodiern english.
Many anglophones spellings are fake invents fakes spellings to neolatines words, it's unnecessary today and for the future. And the eclesial latin pronounciation in english its the same without fakes rotacisms of vowels or consonants, more educated more polited than usonian spelling, that's a minor difference in detail, in pratice not counts.🤭🤭🥂🥂🥂. Hugs.
Me! Its Pee-can when Im talking about the nut or the tree and Pecan when its in the name of a dish.
They need to get a southerner on here to confuse them! It'd be funny to watch tbh.
That last girl definitely knows her English it’s spot on and I don’t blame them for having a hard time but it’s also accent that makes it sound different I think she discredited them a little too much but yeah I would definitely do worse learning French I probably wouldn’t be even close 😂
As an English speaker who is learning French, she was literally bonking some people that pronounced the words the same exact way as some others. Like thorough. Someone said it a way and someone else said it the same exact way but the girl only bonked one person
honestly the lady was looking for a very specific american accent and it’s very unfair
And she wasn’t even consistent with that.
The way this girl was docking them for SAYING THE WORDS RIGHT! Miss girl maybe you need an English class cause they were fine.
Mischievous in American English is ONLY pronounced mis-cheh-vus.. Every other pronunciation is just common errors. It doesn’t mean it is an acceptable form of pronunciation, it’s just an often mispronounced word. Like for example some people say SAHL -MON with the L sound, but really the only correct way to say it is Sah-Mun
No it isn't babe... then why is the L there? Why do english speakers find words but don't pronounce some letters in it ... and english words originated from other languages too
@@Raven_stan L is silent there. French has even more silent letters
it is acceptable, deal with it
What is funny is that some of the words come from old Norman French.
This is so typically American - judging others based on their own standards and wanting everyone to be the same as they.
The title of this should be, "French trying Californian pronunciation of English words".
This comment is so typically European - not understanding that not everything is a pissing contest, and being unable to get loose and have fun. Way too many Euros have a stick rammed up their butts, esp whenever an American is somehow present.
The people were saying it correctly, why was the 🔨 hit?
This word is Hellenic🇬🇷
It’s almost like a tongue twister😂
Ωτορινολαρυγγολόγος
Oto-rino-laringo-lògos
In ancient Hellenic oto means ears 👂🏻
Rino (rinikò) means nose 👃🏻
Làringas > larynx means throat
And lògos goes at the end of many doctor professions.
So, he’s a doctor for the ear-nose-throat system, cause they’re all connected.
We are usually saying “orilà” using the first letter of each “part”
That's so cool
Why did you randomly puke a random fact??
The word may have Greek roots but it's an English word in that form, so it follows English pronunciation rules.
Funny because in French it would be Otorhinolaryngologiste
That's simply great because Greece is bloody awesome, I'm very glad our French language has kept thousands roots and derivations from Greek. Hail to the Greek language, culture, mythology and people !
Isn’t the premise of this video to pronounce English words…. not pronounce English words with an American accent?
Many of the times, they were bopped on the head. They had pronounced the word fine, just with a French accent. A lot of them even pronounced it exactly the same, but were told only some were correct.
Also a lot of the corrections felt a little patronizing. It’s giving silly American.
You have to remember that these things get official names often after they are filmed.
Judging by the reactions of the people being hit, I'm willing to bet the directions were to guess how *she* pronounced them.
She even says she doesn't want to hit them and they reassure her.
It'd be a different reaction if the instructions were different.
Cutos to all the french people. I absolutley love their accents

they were literally saying them right and still got bonked? I’m upset at this
The rhino in Otorhinolaryngologist, isn’t pronounced Thule the city of Reno, it’s pronounced like the rhino in rhinoceroses. The the first i is pronounced with a long i sound not a short one.
The french rhinocéros ?
I agree it should be a long i like in "fine". I've only heard "rhinoplasty" pronounced with a long i, so I assume "otorhinolaryngologist" would be the same. I know that in French i is pronounced like the double e in "sheet" but that's rarely the case in English.
Squirrel is super hard to prononce for french ! Tongue spain for sure !

As a American and a Californian I think the French and other countries don’t understand that we don’t really care about accents as much as we care about your ability to communicate. United States is a huge melting pot with many people from all over the World. What I mean is can I understand you? Because I don’t have time to waste. You could be holding up the line at lunchtime or something. Nobody has time to correct you on your accent. Today this little old Asian lady was ordering a sandwich from a Latina girl that was working. The old lady was holding up the line during lunch because of her inability to communicate with the girl. Which created more stress as more and more people entered the store. English was for both of them their second language. everybody knows you only get 30-45 min lunch. As long as you speak clearly and directly. You should do fine. As an American I noticed when I go to other countries people get hung up on proper pronunciation and I find it a waste of time and a little pretentious.
That's all very fascinating, especially considering the video is about an American correcting people on their pronunciation.
As a native Californian I’ve heard people say we don’t pronounce our “T’s” and I can’t unhear it. When she(the American) said “Turtle” she pronounced it as Tur•Dul so in a way we’re not even annunciating the words correctly either.🤷🏻♀️
I don't like banging the head
It was a black guy with the hammer in the other video also, it sounds like one of these pro-black bs program or smth.
i love french people
I think squirrel is one of the hardest for French speaker 😂
As "écureuil" is for them.
You ought to hear Danish people try to say "probably in the refrigerator ". 😂
This is great. I wonder how English speakers would say French words
There’s a video on thar
7:39 It's actually oto RHINO as in rhinoceros, but I'm sure we pronounce it the other way like the city Reno in Nevada.
American trying to tell French how to speak English.. using mainly French words..
As an English person, this is interesting. We pronounce most of these words differently to the American pronunciation.
Thorough, for example, is pronounced thuruh/ thurrer.
The way the guy in the white t-shirt initially said turtle is how we would say it.
We say Yot for yacht.
Mischievous- mid-chee-vus
I agree, the question was 'how would you pronunce this in English', the question was not " how would you pronounce this in America". A lot of American pronunciation is totally not the way these questions would be spoken in other English speaking countries.
@@sammidee4713 U.S population, migration and influence supersedes the rest though
@@sammidee4713 I thought that since she had said, "Wait, American!" when that girl tried to pronounce something in an English accent, that maybe the people running the channel had specified it to an American accent/pronunciation. We didn't actually hear what her instructions were.
@@ponyxaviors4491 This is true. Didn't think of that, although they should be a little more specific so viewers understand.
@@sammidee4713 I agree. It should've been in the title like the British English version of this video was. It felt like they unintentionally set her up a bit.
I am not sure how most people in the US say it, but i do not hear people pronounce the first R in temperature where I live. It sounds more like temp-uh-cher
From the first word on, they were pretty correct. Besides they all speak English. The French, in general, are very good with teaching languages. They did the same thing with a group of Americans who failed, for the most part, pronouncing French.

Meilleur commentaire de la section.
The judge just wanted to hit people tf lol
As someone who is born in the u.s and grew up here, i had no idea how to say the first word through until now. I thought it was pronounced throw or thought without the T. TvT no one taught me this but i should know it and i already forgot how to pronounce it when when typing this. Im going to just rewatch the part when she says the word the right way until i vet it right
It depends where I'm from in the UK, I wouldn't say it like her we would pronounce it thuru
These are all American pronunciations and words. Bear in mind that France is right next to England and French are taught British English in school
Yes, I think it made the challenge a bit harder for them because it was American English. Although the girl all the way to the right studied in the US. I think they all did fairly well, though 🙂 Or at least gave a very solid effort.
It's a bit more complicated than that. We're taught British English at school BUT we're mainly influenced by American soft power (movies, series, music etc.)
As a result, we get confused all the time and we tend to mix different pronunciations but always the wrong way... 😉
They are not American words. They are latin and french derived words.
@@emyrdaniela6037 you are not a human, you are a primate derived animal
See how stupid that sounds?
In British English we say cinema. A theatre is something different (notice how theatre is spelt correct)
*Bare
You guys are ragging too hard on the American girl. Of course she is going to pronounce words with a California accent/inflection. There was an English guy with the hammer a few weeks ago, and he absolutely mutilated words of Native American origin. You cannot tell me those words were of English etymology and pronunciation. I did not hear you UK people complaining then.
Don't take it personally Desertwalker. There's no right or wrong. Language evolves. They should say or point out at the start of the video, that this is how an American pronounces the words, other options are available. And likewise for the video of an English guy mispronouncing Native American words.
Exactly!
Paradigm can equally be pronounced as;
Para-Dim or Para-Dime
They all need to say "Hamburger" like in pink panther!!!
Some of this can differ depending on the region of the USA. I have heard some people from the Southeast say theater as thee ay ter. I think most Americans would say they are going to the movies and not use the word theater unless it’s a stage production type. We don’t tend to use cinema that much per se but we often say cinematography. Contrary to popular belief we also say film but it tends to be in certain contexts. For example I say film festival, feature film, film school. I wouldn’t ever refer to a documentary as a movie, but I would call a documentary a film.
The blonde and black lady have very good French 👍🏻!
"Hi, my name is Aboubacar, i am from France" 😂😮
The second pronunciation of "mischievous" is the correct one; with 3 syllables, not 4.

English is one of the easiest languages out there. That’s why most English speakers can’t even learn any basic foreign language.
French is being spoken in many other countries though
Our French language is also as spread out as the English language across the Globe.

@@SharksRevenge And I was born in Paris. I'm a Jacques Chirac generation.
It's "Vive la France"
For Intel and try to keep that mind. Most our French words end with a letter "e"
Did you know our French language and the Spanish one are both Romance Languages ?
I’m sorry but French accents are so silly but not like in a bad way just if they speak with the littlest bit of dominance or confidence I cannot take them seriously 😭😭
Half the time they were right, but accents were just strong
"Wait, no American!"🤣
The guy is so french with the "boum let's go" and "baaah"
Or grenouille (frog)
oof I pronouce "thorough" differently xd
7:54 I was shocked of Briggite first🤯
I can't pronounce this word😂😂I can't even write it correct "otorhinolaryngologist"😝
All French people just say like they said in the video: O.R.L (Oto-Rhino-Laryngologist)
No squirrels?
I pronounce the "rhino" part as /ɹaino/, not /ɹino/. And I've seen "otorrinolaringologista" in lists of difficult words in other languages too.
otorrinolaringologista is in Portuguese and we just say "otorrino" because it's a very long word
I was hoping for squirrel.
"No American" hahaha 2:38
Can you have them try to pronounce Worcestershire sauce
Worstashire 😂
We need more of this team on this channel!
I can say on good authority that the "rhino" part of "otorhinolaryngologist" is pronounced like the animal, not like the city in Nevada. We just say ENT though.
Thanks for clearing that up. I started thinking maybe I have been pronouncing it wrong. Nope, it's her.
Same in Ireland. I only know because my youngest was in hospital recently and they detected a Rhinovirus.
And in french we say ORL, this is straight up a latin word 😀
Same "r-eye-know" not "reeee-know" .
Haha, good to know I haven’t been saying it wrong for years. I work at an audiology clinic.
