As French. It's not surprising. The Swiss are mostly speaking Germans on the eastern of Switzerland However there are small minorities of French speakers on the Western Side. Afterall we European neighbor's 🇫🇷🇨🇭🇩🇪

German in Switzerland has many dialects and not all swiss german understand each other .. Swiss german is completely different from German in Germany ... they dont understand each other ... but the french language is universal in all french countries minus some slangs ... The official languages of the European parliament is French ... The official langue of theOlympics is french

I knew there was something I liked about her, but I couldn't put my finger on it.

@@jeanbolduc5818 all swiss german know standard german (hochdeutsch) they would have no problem communicating

Well Belgium has as many languages as Switzerland unless you count Rumantsch which seems to be more of a dialect, and you'd kinda have to count Wallon for Belgium then

Lol what kind of question is that ? Why some Americans and British have French names. That's called "influence" Correction. It's "Sophie 🇫🇷" not Shophia

Yeah strange statement about names. But Sophia doesn’t sound the least bit French to me. Sounds Greek to my ears.

@@christophermichaelclarence6003 It’s not just a matter of “influence”. Many Americans are of French heritage and their first and last names reflect that. In the city where I lived most of my life, names like Boudreaux and Dedeaux are like Smith and Jones. As in super common.

@@anndeecosita3586 Yeah it actually is Greek and means Wisdom. Many other countries use the name though, sometimes written Sofia instead, and in French it is Sophie which the "ie" pronounces like the E in "we"

@@meksil8776Anytime I see a word with ph I associate it with Greeks. I have seen it with an f as well.I think Sophia/Sofia is more common in my country the USA than Sophie. I like the name Sophia better. I think women’s names that end in ique, elle, ine and ette when I think of French.

Lol actually its scripted questions 😂 but thank u!

even with the Swiss or Belgian pronunciation, a French person would quickly understand.....because it is the phonetic sequence of 30/40/50/60 80 is special because it is literally 4*20 (“quatre-vingts”/four twenty) it is a base 20 numbering whose origin is quite mysterious.

Oh Vraiment ?

I learned it the French way too. I'm Belgian but a Flemish speaking Belgian. I do understand French because they teach us in school. However I poorly speak it and with an accent I assume. so my French isn't good enough to hear the different accents to pinpoint them to a country. To me they were all from France. Until the counting part I would have never figured out who is the real French not even who is the Walloon girl from my own country. The counting part gave it away for me too. Non of them was Canadian French I knew that much from the start because I heard Trudeau speaking in French to the people of Quebec on TV. I hope he is as bad in pronouncing French as I am and the native people in Quebec don't sound like that at all. It was awfull not "chique" like these girls. sorry but this is how I feel to the Fench speakers of Canada if you do sound like that.

Yes and no :) Because 80 is by itself a number It's not incorrect to say that 90 is the sum of two numbers: 80 + 10 But you can also see it like that quatre-vingt-dix = 4(20)+10 = 80 + 10 To be honest for a native speaker we will never think about 70 (soixante-dix) / 80 (quatre-vingt) / 90 (quatre-vingt-dix) being special, it's just how we were taught so they are their own thing, but it's tricky for someone trying to learn the language yes.

@@halmyrachI can totally understand something being second nature when it comes to language. I speak English and Spanish and have taught both. So many times my students have asked me questions that I had never given any thought to because I know what “sounds right”. I guess I mean the way it’s worded in French seems like the literally translation would be 4(20) + 10 versus what she said 80 + 10. Whereas other numbers like quarante would translate as forty in English and cuarenta in Spanish.

@@jaaj624 I don’t think it’s more common in the south of France, I’m from the south and actually more people have black hair in Paris than in my city (because of immigration etc.). Most people have brown / light brown hair

I've identified the Belgian one because of the word "brol", which is a word only used by Belgians

why

@@user-ms6hm9ei7z To be consistent. US, France and Belgium are countries. Swiss is an adjective. The country is Switzerland.

​@@user-ms6hm9ei7z Your country is called the Netherlands, not Dutch. In the same sense, her country is called Switzerland, not Swiss.

@@DexM47 how do u know where im from

@@user-ms6hm9ei7z You're asking the wrong person

@cjhan9816 No not really and i'm swiss german. Geneva for example is more related to France and they say the numbers like in France. We have cantons in Switzerland with two languages like Fribourg (german/french) with a bit german influence.

@@cardaveux: I would like to read a comment reply by Quebec French person's point of view. Merci beau coupe.

@@cjhan9816 Thanks. Quebec has more english influence. The French from Switzerland has often influence of swiss german especially near the language borders. The Area of Alsace in France near Basel speak french like a german accent. Alsacien is a german dialect but not a lot of people can speak it in Alsace.

@@cardaveux: I shall wait for Quebec French person to reply on this info. Merci beau coupe again.

By their looks I had a suspicion. But tbh there are coloured, but as well pale white french people and so on. My ex-coworker was from the north of France and she was really pale and in Belgium they have lots of coloured people as well. So you can't always go by your typical stereotype of someone from Paris. From the accent I couldn't tell it at all. I don't know either the different sayings. Just the numbers gave it away for me.

@@somersault4762 when I said their looks and style, I meant clothes and make up, not their skin tone

@@YusufAlMansouri I see. However, France is a big country. And people from The North were different clothes then from Paris, the South or the West. Not everyone is wearing the Paris posh style.

@@somersault4762 when did I say she is wearing the Paris posh style ? I said she looked French, not Parisian.

We use both in French-speaking Switzerland, huitante but also quatre-vingt. However, huitante is only used in the cantons of Vaud, Valais and Fribourg, while quatre-vingt is used in the other cantons. I myself saw huitante,.although I come from the quatre-vingt commandment, as it is the most logical to me

I grew up in Italy with an Italian father and a Swiss-German mother. My mom and I never spoke German or Swiss-German. I started to learn those languages when we moved to Switzerland and I was already 18.

It originates from Latin

That’s the English exonym for Quebec

I did see a video recently (not on this channel) where the Belgian lady said supper and the French lady dinner, so I guessed her right from that, but Lucie does have a beautiful accent, I got those 2 flipped because I don't know French well enough.

@@EddieReischlthat’s interesting. I wonder if French people have stopped using souper/supper. In the USA it tends to used regionally.

@@anndeecosita3586 Yeah, it's pretty much used all over here in Wisconsin, to the extent that families eat meals together, which isn't very often anymore.

We also use the same words in Quebec for numbers as in France ... Belgium and Switzerland do not make the majority of french speakers

Agreed. I was ready to quit French when the teacher got to the chapter on numbers. PITA.

@@jeanbolduc5818 well in that case y'all Québécois also need to change to septante, huitante, and nonante pronto LOL. Swiss French FTW!

@@anndeecosita3586 IKR, real PITA. As if the language is not hard enough as it is 😂

@@ilyrose9086ask any Muslims living in France and they'll say they were never treated and considered as French!!!

I ONLY speak for those that have been marginalized in the French society.... lots of blacks and muslims were born & raised in France but so what?? do they feel like being accepted as one of the locals? there's a reason why there are always riots!!!@@ilyrose9086

Do you mean if they speak both languages? If so then no. The languages are strictly regional. There are two regions tho where one part speaks french and the other (swiss)german. I come from the german speaking part and i‘ve had 5 years of mandatory french lessons and the french speaking swiss people have mandatory german lessons but we all forget everything and just end up speaking english with each other most of the time. I‘ve heard that they speak standart french mostly but, we in the german speaking part speak swiss german, which sounds completely different than german and we got different dialects as well in every german speaking canton. We also have one region that speaks italian and they suffer the most 💀 I think they have german french and mandatory english lessons😭

Europeans are better than Latinos Latin Americans are the result of the Spanish Colonies

That’s because you may know French. For we the foreigners, ALL sounds almost the same, especially 🇫🇷&🇧🇪. (until the numbers)
