Il ont des choses en commun ? Peut être de mettre des "euh" partout, surtout à la fin de mots, des ouais (oué) au debut de phrases, des "quoi" à leur fin.

Exactly the blond lady, very snob, gets the “en”go longer. They also pronounce the “o” very deeply when in going south you say them more like “a”. Putain is used widely across France, not Parisians exclusively.

@user-ez6qg8hg3k 5 жыл бұрын

Caroline Perret that’s true. But maybe this snob accent is espacially regarded as the most typical and authentique parisian accent because it is the most recognizable accent amongst the others you have around and in the capital. In France as in England, there is a standard French accent spoken in the media (from Paris) also spoken in some other provinces. But the accent spoken by this lady is somehow typical from Paris but it is not the majority accent. On the whole, this accent is a caricature, the one you think about when your hear « parisian accent » when your are French from somewhere else than Paris, just like londoner posh accent in the UK.

@kernow9324 5 жыл бұрын

@@user-ez6qg8hg3k The London accent is not considered posh. The most neutral English accent comes from Surrey, to the west of London, and is closest to what you will hear on the major television channels. Some might consider a Surrey accent to be posh.

Kernow I know mate. In London there are different accents like Cockney accent (working class), the received prononciation (RP - the « BBC’s accent »), and the one I call « posh accent », etc. I don’t know about Surrey accent, perhaps I should check it out, but in wealthy neighbourhoods such as Chelsea, this « posh accent » (or Surrey accent) is spoken.

Non pas spécialement. L'accent "parigot", c'est à dire l'accent "titi" consiste à parler avec le nez et à terminer les phrases voire beaucoup de mots par un "euh" traînant très caractéristique. Mais il faut écouter les gens qui sont nés à Paris et banlieue proche, pas la multitude des parisiens qui sont en fait nés en province.

L'accent parisien existe, ça s'appelle le "titi parisien". Le meilleur exemple, c'est la comédienne Arletty. C'est un accent populaire, ouvrier, qui est en voie de disparition. On l'entend rarement aujourd'hui. Si vous allez dans les grandes brasseries, vous trouvez parfois des serveurs qui parlent parisien. Mais c'est vraiment une façon de parler qui est en train de disparaître.

Un accent c’est une variation de prononciation d’une langue et même la prononciation standard, qu’elle soit majoritaire ou à valeur symbolique, c’est un accent car c’est également une variation de la langue.

What's the guy at 9:02 said is really true. As a french I've never really saw that for a long time, but when I traveled and come back to Paris, it's obvious that Paris is a multicultural city. So no, we don't have a particular accent but you can see the utilization of particular words or slang. But if you go outside of Paris and Surrounding region, you can hear a lot of differences in intonations. The best known being the typically northern and southern accent it will be difficult to understand for a foreigner I think.

I’m here to understand and catch up how French people communicate in actual life. I’ve been studying French with my dad for about 3 months, He teaches me some of grammars, conjugaisons and vocabularies but never have he speak with me in French or in normal words, I’ve never focused on listen and how to speak in French. I got a test and got into French class last two days. I received A24 which means in Elementary but the first day totally made me panicked!!!! I didn’t really understand what the teacher said (she’s a French native speaker) and like i told you, i don’t really know how to reply back!! I felt so upset to be honest. Right now,I’m struggling to study and improve more on listen and learn how to speak that’s why i’m here. So if you read til this... mind telling me some tips to be better in French?

Yes, I learned French very late in life, at 25, and I mostly started by getting used to the language, without really caring much to understand all (I listened a lot of radio, mostly France Culture). Then the best you can do is to watch a French series with subtitles (I advise you "Call my Agent" in Netflix) and try to catch and write down expressions and tricky words. As for the grammar, really, you have to leave it to when you will have a good grasp of the language, otherwise it will demotivate you.

Personnellement je n'entends pas de différence entre mon accent et ledit "accent parisien". En province aussi les gens disent "putain", "en fait", "du coup" etc... Je ne pense pas que Paris ait un accent particulier. Après pour le comportement social et l'attitude c'est autre chose.

If you want to know what is the true Parisian accent you need to watch some old french movies trailers of the 40, 50, 60s,. Because today, there's no more true Parisians who live in Paris and are born in Paris and their parents and gran parents too, you see? Now intramural Paris is mainly inhabited by bourgeois from the provinces but also many wealthy foreigners. The French capital is no longer affordable for the working class that populated Paris about 60 or 70 years ago. One built the suburbs all around Paris to let the center capital welcome the wealthiest people. To hear the real Parisian accent, then listen to Edith Piaf sing or listen to Jackie Sardou (actress) or Jean-Paul Belmondo (actor) in his first films in black and white or Michel Audiard or also Arletty (actress) to speak. There, you can really get an idea of what is the Parisian accent, also called accent "pointu", with this particular way of dragging on certain syllables and accelerating on others, this intonation a little nasal, how they pronounce the "a" at the end of a word, etc. ;)

Fabulous. I just found you. Subscribing. As an American who has taught herself French (I want mine to be as good as yours, dang!) the guy at 2:10 nailed it for me and what my ears here. I have friends from all over French and I think the Parisians definitely have their own accent.

Oh they speak so quickly, as the one guy said they garble. My French teacher told me that the perfect French was spoken in Toulouse. I wish I could freeze the conversation so that I could read the translation as I go along!

@lo2740 2 жыл бұрын

lol, i dont know how your teacher could say such thing : Toulouse has a particularly strong accent with many slangs and gramatically incorrect expressions which makes it a particularly awful and ugly french. One of the worst with Marseille (the south) and dunkerque (north). IT is largely admitted that the area with the least accent is around Tours.

This is so weird because once, some people told me that French people were incredibly racist and they don't even respond to you if you don't speak French. And the language French was always a "never" to me. But i met French people in an online game and most of them were so sweet and friendly, just like the people in this video. So i decided to learn French and visit Paris someday. I hope i can make it. And if i do, i wanna be in one of these videos. :)
