in Germany we have that too, and at least where I work, non-smokers can go for a coffee or tea instead of smoking.

Yep, Same happens in Spain. Although there have been a huge improvement in reducing tobacco over the last 15 years. The worst thing is that they keep saying they can do whatever they want because they are cool and if you are against smoking then you are an oppressor and that kind of random stupid things...

There has been improvements but it really depends where. I studied in Lyon back in 2015 and didn't have a big issue on this. I absolutely hate smoke and I have trouble breathing around it so I was glad I didn't come across this as much. Same when I was in Paris, didn't come across this issue tbh.

I've been living in France for almost 3 decades. There's not much smoker as the 80's 90's and early 2000's

I'm not German and it's not a problem at all

To me, German stereotypes basically embody earth signs (Taurus, Virgo, Capricorn). Serious, rigid, very literal with little room for figurative interpretation, obsessed with order, hence why they are addicted to rules that are convoluted to address any loopholes. I feel like this started with the Prussians militaristic values, and kind of became ingrained in everyday German lifestyle to an extent, as it led to an industrious success.

@@phlm9038 ... xD

You may be too young to realize that there has been a lot of change over the years. People used to smoke inside, in restaurants, night clubs, in their office etc... France simply has had more smokers historically, and as a result still is behind the other countries, but things have been moving over the years.

I mean France didnt have a real public smoking ban before 2007, before then you could smoke in schools and hospitals for christs sake 😂

@@MN-vz8qm I'm well aware they've been changes that forced smokers out of many places. But the culture still is strong. And I don't think you can blame us being behind only to historical reasons. There are other countries that take more drastic approches to reduce the amount of smokers.

I agree. I'm Italian and I loved English food and England in general.

So like if i say "Hey, your shoes look pretty cool" you'd be like "You mean very cool? Or just cool?" ? Or is it more like your friend next to you would be like "And what's about my shoes?!" ? It's a interesting theory, please don't get me wrong ^^

@@baghira2761 i would be like if a stranger say to me my shoes are cool. I would say he has either love interest or he's drunk or he has weirdly admiration on me (don't know why, maybe he try to sell me something). If it's a close friend, i would just think he's trying to tease me with disturbing fake over-interrest or he think i realy evolved since the time we knew each other. Normal compliment would be like "your shoes are not bad. or you shoes... decent enough..." or add with negative side statement of desinterest like "your shoes are horibly cool" or "weirdly cool". or "i'm not acustomed to see you with so cool shoes" or "don't get me wrong, but today you look cool". positives feelings are ok in french and realy appreciate but if you say as raw as they are they would seems a bit overwhelming, and make you look "naive" or "leech-like".

@@baghira2761 I'm French too but very different from what Etienne explained. In fact, I don't even recognize French in what he says.. If someone comes to me in the street telling me my shoes / hair / clothes are beautiful, you'll just see a big smile and hear a big thank you. We won't emphasize the compliment though, and maybe not return it not to sound hypocritical. It could be a bit embarrassing to be complimented so we won't talk about that much, but no one (except men maybe) will think that the person is hitting on you or has a weird admiration.. You can easily see a genuine compliment so it is taken as it is. Another thing is, if the person is really embarrassed by the compliment because that person lacks confidence or anything, he/she could respond by a self deprecating joke. I think Etienne explained the point of view of a bit macho man 😜 Not daring to compliment genuinely your friends or strangers without thinking it's teasing or love interest

French was mostly likely Germanic people in the first place. When the Roman Empire took over France (Gaul at that time) They adopted and embraced the Latin/Roman Culture There is some connections between us 🇪🇺🇫🇷🇩🇪

@@christophermichaelclarence6003 No, the Germanic language has brought very little to the French language. Remember, the letter R was rolled until the 18th century. French is a Roman Latin language. It's a bit like English it's a hybrid language, we could rather say that French is the most Germanic Latin language, and English is the most Latin Germanic language.

@@Mcgoohan6 Good call. My bad

And you have a lot of sch ng au and chhh and sharp 's' in your language, whereas Dutch (for example) also has seperate words, but with softer oh ah eh ih uh noises. A bit like the French fruttiputtipuh-kindof sound, but seperated word like the Germans.

Just saying "I jay walk in a lot of areas" is laughable to most southern Europeans with horrible traffic! We do follow rules quite strictly and on top of that we like to remind others to follow the rules as a society. ;) It's quite annoying but also part of the German way and nothing to be ashamed of.

Coming from a Russian, most of them ARE gold diggers lol. Especially to a foreigner. You’d do anything to get a EU citizenship. Especially if you’re not the one paying for it, and the poor naive idiota is :D

It's the general traditional approach anywhere. Until recently, not doing it was considered going "on a Dutch date" in English-speaking countries as well, but feminism won.

@@Humanophage There is a paradox in the West with this mainstream feminism: More and more women are economically independent, even wealthier than men and, in a first moment they are willing to share and even pay for stuff in a relationship in order to prove their value, but, in doing so, themselves, their familiy and friends end up concluding that they are "too valuable to be with that man", therefore they break up their current relationship, looking for a man enough valuable for them, which means a man who is wealthier than them, and, when they find him, they are again in a position of submission to a man.

As a Russian girl, I confirm this. Although now young girls like me want to be more equal, and often refuse to be sponsored by a man. For me this is strange. Although many guys in Russia consider it the norm to pay for a girl. But for some reason this means for me that in the future I will be in debt, and that if a guy pays for me, then I also have to pay him somehow (for example, +18), and this is extremely disgusting for me. So I think many Russian girls prefer to get their own money and not their man.

4:27 the phenomena that is being discussed here is that when people try to interpret a different culture using their own culture as the reference then the wrong assumptions are very often made. This is the case when people from many european nations believe that people in the US are "fake" or "insincere" because we greet each other by something similar to "How are you doing". The incorrect assumption is that we are being fake and that we do not actually care how the person is doing. The actual truth is that it is nothing more than a cultural polite manner of greeting in the US.... it is not done in other cultures which makes sense.... if all cultures were the same then there would be no difference between them, yes? I have friends in many east and west european nations and we've all been fascinated with the differences in cultural habits and expectations.
