I am German and I can guarantee you we do not have sparkling orange juice!! Maybe she drunk Fanta haha

I am German, working in Paris since 2017 and the biggest difference is that Germans love to talk about how hard they work while leaving the office at 6pm and French talk about their amazing work life balance while sending out emails at 8pm. And no, we do not drink sparkling orange juice, but we love sparkling apple juice ...

The French speak so fast I can't read the subtitles that quickly

That guy detailing his sex life with that German girl is a baller 😂😂

I don't know what the black girl experienced but in Berlin we are usually just equally unfriendly to everyone :)

As an Asian who has lived in France and Germany, I have to say the people are both cute in their own ways lol I remember the first week in Munich was like “why are they so tall?” And the first week in Paris was like “ why are they so stylish?”

In my opinion, Paris doesn't represent the real France, just as Berlin doesn't represent the real Germany.

I am from Germany. In my opinion the main difference is pride. The french are very proud (about their language, their food, the culture) - sometimes even a little closed minded because of it or even a little arrogant about it 😉. The germans arent that much (guess why) but still are hurt when the french speak bad about their cuisine or something (guess thats normal). Also the germans actually like french culture a lot (a saying is "like god in france" meaning 'living the good life') i am not too sure if the love is shared the other way around 😜. Also i think that french and germans are not too different tbh. Both people seem a little unfriendly first but have a big heart (i mean the french and german have the same acestors and even forefather in Charlemagne/ Karl der große.), they both love/ care for nature, literature and social causes a lot. In my personal opinion the french are extremely nice people and very friendly. I absolutely can not confirm the cliché about them. Oh and i think in both countries there is an understanding of both of our countries being the motor of the EU. I just wish we would get closer together (more exchanges in school, universities etc) after all we kinda are the same people.

I am german.. The thing is.. I am pretty cold for a long time towards strangers and not funny at all. :D But always polite and respectful! It takes some time and then I am the most warm hearted and loving person ever as I gained trust. Oh and super giggly and funny, I would say. :D Love french people.

As french guy. I think lot of positive things about german people. They are so different than french, i think we can be inspirated about some their qualities and the reverse too. We are complementary ! And i hope one day we ll be really united (not for money or economy like today). Vive la France, Vive Deutschland and vive l'Europe des peuples. ✌

I used to have a pretty bad image of Germany from being cursed at several times by Germans just for being French at the border. I went to Heidelberg a bit worried that I was going to be treated the same way, so I told my family to lay low and not speak French too loud in the streets. Not in the slightest! The people I met in Heidelberg were just the loveliest, friendliest people I have ever met, everyone was so kind and happy, far from the stereotypes. Even though we tried to speak German with them, upon hearing us speak French, every single person tried to converse with us in our language. I felt so welcome there, it was amazing!

I never realized that the French use "voila" so much in their everyday speech. Very interesting.

as a german let me tell you, u would never find a german saying some weird ass shit like that lol <a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="285">4:45</a>

I love our French neighbors. From Germany 🇩🇪❤️🇫🇷

We asian people love French people very very much. Thailand 🇹🇭 lovvvvvvveeeeee youuuuuuu!

If France and Germany can be allies, everyone can. We had like 4 big wars in the last 200 years alone, killed each other many times and now - only 75 years after the last one - we are one of the closest allies and stick together on many important geopolitical topics, have open borders, no tarrifs and many exchange programms. So everyone with a notorious hate towards one of his neigbour countries, come take a look and think twice.

we had to reconcile, we had to fix History so we played Doctor and Nurse :D

As a French, I really like Germany.

I've heard stories about French speaking really fast, but I had no idea they speak THAT fast.

<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="274">4:34</a> the most stereo typically french anecdote possible

Berlin does not represent Germany in a general way.

Much love to the french people from germany. You guys are just awesome❤

German here 🇩🇪 love you my French brothers 🇫🇷

<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="300">5:00</a> the way he looks in the camera

I'm Mexican and I have been to France and Germany many times because my cousin married a French guy and I had a German girlfriend for many years. I think cliches do exist but they disappear as easily as they appear. I found Germans a bit more aloof than French but I attended several meetings and big family parties in Hannover and in a little town some kilometres away. People were very jolly and open. As soon as an "uncle” knew I was Mexican, he wanted to drink tequila shots with me. I felt warmly welcome by him and the rest of the family. In France, especially in Paris, I've never met anyone unfriendly to me, even though many people say Parisians are rude. I've found French and Germans to have many things in common with Mexicans, incredible and it may seem, but some other things are perfectly distinct, like the French playing accordion and singing in Place d'Italie on Sunday or Germans not crossing the street if a green ampelman doesn't tell them to do so.

It blows my mind to see two countries with such an history getting along together, that's great thank you for your work !

We germans are distant in the beginning but if you become a close friend you have won a jackpot for your lifetime.

Wow the one guy rembers how beautiful it is in Germany because of buildings he saw in Dresden 🥰 I live in Dresden myself, that made me smile. (Indeed most beautiful City)

"touche-pipi" is my favorite new term in French! 🤣

I'm German, living in the USA. I don't think we are cold, we are just a little more socially awkward and need some time to warm up. But i think, once you have a German friend, you have a great friend, that is always there for you. We're not great with verbalizing affections, but we care deeply about our friends, we just don't tell them that.

Well, as a German I don't take issue with anything they said. Personally I'm surprised of how positive their evaluation of us was. I always thought there was a bit more hostility between us... But maybe it's because those were mostly young people.

I am from France. I have been many times to Germany. The People are very kind and they loved my french accent. (I have studied German at school). German people like very much French people. They love our language and our way of being. 🤔Among my best friends, some are German. To live in Germany...? No...! I prefer to live in a sunny place .🌞

Je suis une fille allemande et j'aime tout ce qui est français, en particulier Gaspard Ulliel et Alain Delon "vive la France"

I never understood that stereotype about Germans being rigid and humorless.I've known a lot Germans.They're all laid back,friendly(without overdoing it) and can be hysterically funny.Being admirably clean and ordlerly doesn't necessarily mean you're uptight.

We had a French-German student exchange in 8th grade high school (Gymnasium). 2 weeks in each country. It was one party, very fun the whole time and one celebration and a permanent smooching. The young generation of both countries had no fear of contact and no historical ballast to carry around. This is how it should be with all peoples in Europe and in the whole world. À ta santé ! Prost! Cheers!

Very interesting! The sex story is really funny 😄 wasn’t expecting that. As an Indian who traveled around Europe and encountered both Germans and French. I found both equally friendly but I feel Germans are more nicer and friendlier to me than French people. I find French guys are more talkative and show more emotions than German guys but surprisingly i found French girls more uptight and hard to chat with than the German girls. I met many German girls who were so nice to me and were very kind enough to show me around the towns in Germany and Austria. Maybe it’s the language barrier or maybe French girls aren’t used to interacting with Indians. But it doesn’t mean French people aren’t any less than Germans. Just my opinion. Please do more videos like this. Compare French with Spanish people or Italian people or more. Would love to hear people’s thoughts and opinions. 👍🏾😊

<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="276">4:36</a> that guy is a comedic genius, holy shit. He came up with it instantly too, wow.

I am from Germany and I love France,the people and the country

Je suis français, ayant vécu 4 ans en Allemagne, à Francfort-sur-le-Main et je peux vous dire que j'ai su déconstruire tout les stéréotypes connus. Je ne sais pas si c'est lié à Francfort, qui est une ville pas forcément représentative de l'Allemagne. Je trouve l'Allemagne beaucoup plus multiculturelle et "ouverte" aux cultures et tolérante vis-à-vis des personnes ne parlant pas leur langue. Les allemands ne sont pas plus ponctuels, ordonnés ou propres, par contre ils sont davantage respectueux des piétons et des cyclistes. Je trouve l'organisation bureaucratique plus ou moins à égalité entre les deux pays. Les Allemands tendent à être plus directs (ils disent les choses clairement, sans tourner autour du pot) et plus pragmatiques (au quotidien et dans la langue, l'allemand n'a pas la même finesse du détail à la française). Les allemands râlent comme les français, mais moins officiellement et ouvertement. Ils n'ont pas la culture de la manifestation et de la protestation qu'ont les français. Je trouve que les allemands et les personnes vivant en Allemagne savent profiter de la vie tout aussi bien que les français, les terrasses d'Eiscafé et les parcs ne désemplissent pas aux beaux jours. L'éducation allemande est moins stricte et bien plus basée sur la confiance et la valorisation des enfants. Les enfants allemands sont autonomes plus jeunes qu'en France. De manière générale je trouvais les relations plus apaisées. Il est très rare d'assister à des scènes de dispute dans la rue. Le climat politique et social tendu reste davantage palpable en France qu'en Allemagne. Il est plus difficile de briser la glace en Allemagne car ils tiennent à maintenir une certaine distance sociale et de manière générale quand on ne les connait pas, ils tendent à être froid alors que les français (du sud particulièrement) sont bien plus bavards et n'ont pas de soucis pour le smalltalk, même sans connaître la personne.

<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="523">8:43</a> i love thé intense music once he starts talking about generalizations 😂

I loved the guy at the end. Yeah, there are always people that you like more than others, but there is always a definate difference in the world of thought. Which is the culture! And it is a beautiful thing to have. It's history and enharitance, and some things that we likely more enjoy than other cultures (mostly always the taste of the food). Merci mes amis. J'aime la France. J'aime la vie. Confrérie d'Allemagne

As a french I can tell you i like Germany and german !

never ask a french about art. they'll wont't stop talking :D

Une fois, je suis allée en Allemagne avec les autres élèves du cours d'allemand pour une sorte de stage (le projet Praxis). On y allait en train et il fallait changer de gare à Paris. La prof d'allemand m'accompagnait car j'étais en fauteuil, elle a demandé à des gens de nous aider et ils nous ont envoyées balader. Alors que quand je suis partie en voyage en Bavière avec ma mère et mon frère, on est allés à un musée à Nuremberg et un homme à l'entrée a vu que j'étais en fauteuil et il nous a tout de suite conduit à monte-charge. Les rues ne sont peut-être pas adaptées (c'est quand même une cité médiévale) mais au moins, les gens aident volontiers les autres et ils sont respectueux.

I loved the doctor-nurse guy blaahahahahah i laughed so hard, though I am not from France or Germany!

Coucou ! Je suis française vivant en Allemagne et je suis Easy German depuis un moment pour m'aider à apprendre l'allemand. Je suis ravie de découvrir que Easy French existe aussi ! Bien sûr je ne suis pas le public visé de la chaîne ;) mais je vais la recommander à tous mes collègues et amis qui veulent pratiquer leur français.

Shalom from Costa Rica ,je viens de m`abboner á votre chaîne..c`est super pour moi, je suis debutant en Français et j`adore tous les videos !! Gracias por su trabajo!! thanks for your good job!

Thanks for posting.

Vos vídeos m'aident beaucoup à améliorer mon français. Salut du Brésil. Merci!

Ich versteh zwar kein Wort aber da könnt ich stundenlang zuhören. Französisch ist so eine schöne Sprache! 👍

Entertaining video! I have once told you under one of your videos,that I was preparing for the DELF certificate with your help.I have passed the test and i am so happy, thank you so so much ,I cannot put my thankfulness into words 🥰!I would love to write French in this comment section, but unfortunately I am not able to do accents with my current mobile phone :(Anyways I really enjoyed this video and some of the assumptions are actually really funny (and true sometimes haha)

Great! These video is the kind I like. A lot of interview. I know you have to work hard to edit and do all the production details. Thanks a lot.

J’aime beaucoup ce nouvel échange franco-allemand. C’est vraiment très intéressant et ça permet en outre de comparer la façon dont deux langues abordent un sujet conjoint. Vous devriez faire d’autres vidéos de ce type. À bientôt😘

as a french-german, this was very interesting, as i relate to both sides of the spectrum lol

A refreshing view of our culture.

Role play on first encounter as 14 years old, as recounted by a Frenchman to a rank stranger, that too on camera !! What not to love. Respect.

"Quelque chose que vous enviez à l'Allemagne? Leur PIB" 😂

I am from Germany and I think the French are very nice people! If you have a French friend, you have a friend for a livetime 🥰👍🍀

Excellent Video 😉👍

This is really great video like always. 🤗❤️🥰😊😍

For a German who lives in the US for a very long time this was quite interesting. France and Germany today are THE driving forces in Europe. And I -as a post war German- am very proud that the 2 countries who were at each other's throats for such a long time and in such horrendous ways have come to not only coexist but to collaborate in the best sense of the word. The video -probably to be expected- reveals a lot of stereotypes and cliché. So let me add another one: Germans love the French but do not respect them; French respect the Germans but do not love them

<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="297">4:57</a> damn, that was smooth af!

Great video. Thumbs up!

I love france. I remember visiting Paris as a child, seeing the Eiffel tower and going to Disneyland. Also their language sounds beautiful. Greetings from germany❤

Je suis allemand et j'adore la langue français et la France en général. Pour moi la France, c'est notre frère :)

C'est super bien pour apprendre de français ici je vais merci beaucoup pour votre vidéo et je attente pour pour les autres aussi ❤👍🌷

The gentleman at <a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="270">4:30</a> is SUCH a character, love it.

Besides me being german, i had to laugh from time to time equally seeing myself in what was said about us and also how you see yourselves. Nevertheless thanks for the vid and all the best wishes from germany :)

Au Royaume Uni tout est autorisé sauf ce qui est interdit, En Allemagne tout est interdit sauf ce qui est autorisé, en Russie tout est interdit même ce qui est autorisé, en France tout est autorisé même ce qui est interdit.

I expected this to be way more negative:D But I think us Germans are not distanced or cold, we're just a bit shy and need some time to get comfortebale with strangers. Also, French is the most beautiful language and French girls are one of the prettiest in the world in my opinion.

Super video et trés intéressante, merci :-)

I just fell in love with the moderator

you can even see the differences between French and German people through the interviewees in these two videos 😂

Même si nous les Allemands ne le montrons pas toujours, nous adorons la France. Vous êtes nos voisins préférés! Vive l'amitié franco-allemande et beaucoup d'amour pour tous les français😘🇫🇷❤

The doctor and nurse role-play was EVERYTHING 😀😀😀😀

mercie I love your Easy French it is like being in Paris where I work at L’Oree du B En 1958. I was sent from l’ecole hotelier de Genes and. More i live in Boston and more i love French and Italian my mother language. Excuse my English i would like to write in French but i still make des erreurs. Very good programxxxxx

I love their first expression after they heard the 1st question!!! 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

Il suffit d'écouter les deux épisodes pour comprendre les différences entre les français et les allemands. Ce n'est pas la réponse en soi que l'intention et la manière de répondre qui importe ici! Super intéressant pour moi qui ne suis ni l'un ni l'autre. En tant que canadien, je vous trouve tous les deux intéressants à votre manière! Tschüss!

kudos for the honesty.

Merci beaucoup

Très intéressant merci !🙂👍

I don't speak French but sah quel plaisir

I would love to be at a dinner table with a Frenchman, a German, an Italian, a Dutchman and a Spaniard. That would be a night to remember.

Hi, so we had a meeting yesterday and we do all agree about not giving a fricking fluck about what they think. Best whishes.

The French and germans have a lot of love for each other, like Romy Schneider and Alain Delon.

As a German, I envy the food culture in France.

Interessant 😃

My great, great grand father was from Berlin Germany and he married a French woman from Paris!. I tried to learn French in high school but kept getting my Spanish education mixed up with French, the French teacher kicked me out of her class. Now in my old age, I am learning how to speak German. I had enough of the Spanish, I used it so much when I worked in a jail for ten years. I wanted to change and needed a change even though there is no one to talk with.

Ravissante la présentatrice! 😍

Sorry for writing this comment in English- this episode was linguistically a little difficult for me:) I live in Germany, and it's so true and for me so fascinating that the German system is based on trust: like that woman said, there's no speed limit, but you simply don't pass it. You don't have to swipe a card to use public transport; the system trusts that you've bought a ticket, and people buy them all the time (there are of course the occasional Schwarzfahrer, but you get caught once and pay 60 euros and you never do it again). In other cultures, you are taught to find ways around the system whenever you can. I am in a music university, and we have an online booking system for practice room. Lots of foreign students find holes in the system to block a room for an entire day. In other countries, this is normal. In Germany, this is really not normal, and Germans never do this. They respect the system, though admittedly sometimes too inflexibly. "On bouffe pas bien"- Je suis complètment d'accord avec ça. Also, Germans are not so punctual and professional as I expected before moving here. The train is often delayed, people come late to appointments, applications for work or study are super last-minute (seriously, how do you expect me to get a visa and move and rearrange my life two weeks before the study or the job begins?), and you fill excel and word forms instead of a proper online application. And they still use Comic Sans for God's sake:)

Your all videos are extremely awesome. But request you to please keep the font size of the French & English transcriptions a little bigger size because it is hurting to the eyes with this small font size. Merci en avance !

Imagine France and Germany combined into one single country! A super power, with a long history across whole Europe and all continents, plenty of philosophers, painters, writers, composers and filmmakers, with the best wine and beer, best cars and fashion, leading companies in all industries, many wonderful cities AND ..... 6 World Cups!!

I love the sound of french.

Ayant vécu longtemps en Allemagne et en France, j’ai trouvé cette vidéo très intéressante. Je suis assez d’accord sur certains points comme le fait que les Allemands sont plus organisés puisque le manque d’organisation en France, (pour par exemple des inscriptions dans des établissements scolaires, l’assurance, des organisations d’évènements...) m’avait vraiment un peu choquée quand j’étais arrivée ici, personne n’avait l’air au courant de comment tout fonctionnait, même les personnes du domaine en question. Mais au contraire de ce que disent certains, je trouve que justement, les français sont beaucoup plus strictes et donnent plus d’importance aux règles. J’ai l’impression qu’on donne plus de liberté aux gens en Allemagne parce qu’on reconnaît que tout le monde connaît les limites (comme disait la dame pour la vitesse). Quelqu’un d’autre l’a déjà dit aussi mais j’étais aussi un peu déçue par la hiérarchisation en France. J’aimais vraiment beaucoup le fait que les rapports avec les professeurs par exemple soient tellement plus détendus. Pareil pour le système éducatif d’ailleurs, arrivée en France, tout était plus stricte et le rythme beaucoup plus intense, je ressentais tout de suite nettement plus de pression. Autre chose qui m’a étonné dans la vidéo est le fait que les allemands étaient décrits comme froids aux premiers abords. Pour moi c’était encore une fois l’inverse, même si j’ai vite remarqué que les deux étaient très gentils et ouverts, j’avais toujours l’impression au premier contact que les français étaient un peu plus distants et en général un peu moins ouverts d’esprit et avenants. Ce qui m’a marqué surtout c’est (comme évoqué dans la vidéo également) l’individualisme des français, qui contrastait vraiment le sentiment de communauté que j’avais en Allemagne. J’avais passé beaucoup de temps là-bas à des événements où énormément de personnes qui ne se connaissaient pas forcément se réunissaient pour passer du temps ensemble et créer des liens et je ne retrouve pas vraiment ça ici, c’est un peu comme si tout le monde faisait juste ça de son côté avec ceux qu’ils connaîssaient déjà. Pour la nourriture en revanche je trouve que trop d’importance est donnée à ce point. Avant de déménager j’appréhendais beaucoup à partir de ce que j’avais entendu de la France. Mais sauf peut-être les spécialités de chaque pays, ce qui est consommé au quotidien est vraiment presque identique d’après mon expérience. Même le petit déjeuner, je pense que c’est plus subjectif que propre au pays, je connais autant d’allemands que français qui mangent salé le matin. Bref ce que j’ai dit sonnait peut-être un peu comme si je crachais sur les français, c’est pas le cas, j’aime beaucoup les deux et suis d’accord avec ce que j’ai beaucoup vu dans les commentaires, c’est-à-dire qu’hormis quelques points, en fait ils se ressemblent énormément, ont forcément des côtés négatifs tous les deux mais sont en général des pays et personnes très agréables qui gagneraient à se rapprocher.

So german school really paid off watching this video. I had a test in english that proved I am at level C1 but I couldnt read the subtitles that fast. So I am glad I had french in school too for 5 years and could at least understand the french subtitles :D

Learned some french

we are brothers and sisters with too many unnecessary conflicts in the past. you find the same kind of people on both sides of the Rhine.

I'm German and I was on a class trip to France. Many of the French people were very rude and impatient. I'm quite sure they acted like this because "Nazi". Was the first and last time in my life I really felt discriminated. We met some really cool French people, too. But not many. It was like a few Dr. Jeckyls among way too many Mr. Haydes. But peace to all the French Dr. Jeckyls 😉 Edit: I liked it there, thoug. South France is so damn beautiful man!

Lol that guy was literally relaying such a profound story and they just laugh in his face. The expression on his face as well lol

As a German, I agree with almost all of these stereotypes :D I like the French for being less organised and passionate about everything they do. Every French person I've met so far has been super nice and polite. As a teacher, I think the French school system could be reformed, not because education is bad, but because learning methods seem really strict. The hierarchy is also something that I can't quite get used to. We don't exactly call our professors by their first name over here but titles seem to be much more important in France. Overall, we know that you have better wine, better food and a language that is more pleasing to the ear :))
