First of all it's great to see you're back at it again ! For someone like me who watches 1-2 old video's each day it's a big difference ! More fun and quicker to the point , love the animations and stock video flashes are also fun. In my opinion this is the right amount of engagement , so don't do more or over do it .The pace to me seems about right (I could always slow you down ;) ) . The recap is also great , I think I haven't seen it before. A point of critique could be the font you use for the English translations is maybe a bit too cartoonish and thus in this pace maybe hard to read. Maybe a easier font would work with a bit more letter spacing (sorry webdev/desiginer comes out ;) ) . For the rest , you did great work et j’aimerais voir une autre video ;))

See that you also use this font for the french senctences sometimes , sorry didn't notice that first time (I listen to the french and read the english ). It's just my opinion mind you .. In fullscreen it's ok but in window mode or on a phone it is more difficult for me to read.

Hi Alex. Yeah, I noticed the pacing and also the graphics, which were terrific and a definite step up from the old videos. Personally, I'd prefer you not get too snappy with the pacing, as it might cause me to have to stop the video again and again to reflect on the content. But I get your point of trying to keep it moving and interesting, so I guess it's just an issue of finding that right balance. I liked how you summarized at the end, which is a great way to aid our learning and remembering. I found this an impressive beginning to your next "season."

The recap at the end helps alot. I don't mind the snappier pace...the only problem is that it is easier for me to slip into a more passive watching of the video because I don't sufficiently process a point before you move on to the next point. How about including a little challenge for the viewers after one or 2 points to keep us on our toes? For example, say to us "How would you say 'Please give me another ticket' using "encore" ? Leave a little blank for us to respond then give the answer. That way we will know if we really grasped the point before moving on. You would only need to do this a couple of times in the video. I wonder what other French learners think of this approach 😉.

Love that it's not just me :). It's good to be back!

Je ne le comprends pas 😅 C'est n'est pas 'always', dans ce cas ?

@@kayleighevans2828 Hi Kayleigh, Sorry I wasn't clearer in my description. My friend was using it in the sense of "...still haven't received a letter..."

@@fredquinn3919 oui, je l'ai pris pour ça, haha. T'inquiètes ✌️ Je pensais que j'avais tort 😅

I’ve never seen the contraction « who’re » before. Putain! (Pun intended).

Cheers for the vote. I think next week we'll talk about the meanings of toujours with a little comparison.

Great to hear Abi. Such valuable feedback. I did have a look at the search results to compare thumbnails. A winning thumbnail is so hard. There are so many factors. So happy it caught your eye :D.

Great addition yea. "And yet" would mean "still" in this case.

Thanks Jen. Next week we'll talk about Toujours :)

It's taken me so long to get comfortable with using it for AGAIN actually. Where does it go, what's the difference between that and other words for again, but it's recently clicked so I had to make the video :). So glad it helped you out. Merci beaucoup pour ce très beau commentaire !

Merci beaucoup !

Elle arrive mercredi prochain :). Attention: c'est une vidéo.

Hey, thanks, Tom. Good to be back!

De rien !

You can still translate by either today. As a general rule "on" is just more familiar than "nous" in any expression identifying a group (one you are inlcuding yourself), so "on y va" will be seen are a bit more plain than "allons-y". The later would be much less likely to be used between kids, for example, but would be more natural to use in a context where you are with people you may not know that well. Neither are wrong or misplaced in pretty much any situation. I would be using either with little difference (as a French adult). Maybe in some context allons-y may sound a bit too formal for the setting...but it is really being picky...

@@steprich Thank you so much. That clears up a lot. Must appreciated 🙏

What Stéphane said! Ultimately, I think it comes down to the register in which you speak to the majority of those around you. On y va is more informal but so normal since the French almost exclusively use "On" over "Nous".

My pleasure!

Encore merci à toi Lisa ! I value the feedback hugely. And the best way for those two to become less bugaboo-ish is to use them. N'hésite pas à pratiquer dans les commentaires. :)

Ah thanks for appreciating! It's a very deliberate choice to lead you onto a video at the end that I think will help!

My pleasure Margaret. New one next Wednesday.

Lol! I love this, bc I too left a comment about how weird it was that I was just thinking about this very topic, and I haven’t even been studying my French nor watching my KZfaq French vids lately until now! So strange, but cool. Must be a sign that it’s definitely time for me to get back to it 😆

Je vous en prie, toutes les deux :). I could just tell you what the rules are about liaisons... but the reality is that rules are often broken. I'd much rather tell you the reality :).

@@ilhuicatlamatini it was very strange! We all must have been on the same wavelength! 😆

Comme tu as pu voir, parfois on a le droit de les confondre :)

D'accord pour "il s'est arrete" qui ne marche effectivement pas dans ce contexte ("ca s'est arrete" est probablement la bonne fomule en langage parle), mais on peut tres bien se contenter de "toute la matinee" sans ajouter "il a plu" car le contexte est tres clair et implique le "il a plu" qui devient presque redondant dans une conversation.

Nice catch! Merci. As soon as go into "example mode" my brain comes up with lots of doubtful grammar haha.

You're so welcome!

I didn't know "less people" has been accepted. Do you have a link to that before I publicy declare it? Exciting. :D I totally, wholeheartedly support the view that languages evolve and we should evolve with them.

@@FrenchinPlainSight according to 'The Rest is Politics' podcast I listened a few weeks ago, it was still incorrect.

Glad you liked it!

Ahah. Happy to hear it! Watch it encore and encore :p

So glad you like it.

You're welcome :D. I love knowing the rules but I also like fitting in so I'm always torn when it comes to grammar mistakes if they are particularly pervasive!

Tu peux dire les deux :). Une vidéo au sujet de "toujours" va sortir mercredi prochain :)

I said it was gramatically incorrect English. But I hear it everywhere. From the pub to people on TV! So, in my opinion, it was a useful tidbit for French natives who want to sound more "real" in English.
