@prongsjiisan Imo french is very similiar to Japanese pronunciationwise. Why people tend to believe that french is more "classy" is only because of the house plantagenet which ruled England and didn't knew shit about english. Thus french vocabulary spread in English nobility, making most of the latinrooted words considered as more classy as they were used by the nobility (and also kind of a pain to pronunce) And add to that the fact that all the literate people knew how to write latin to facilitate the spread of french words in english vocabulary.. And if it's insult you want, "fils de pute", "putain" and "connard" are the most used (in my environment, because yes swearing varies depending on your social upbringing even in france; on a sidenote, "putain" is the equivalent of "shit" in English)
That sounds more like a compliment to our country. Stereotypes? Religious cult, Gender Equality and don't even get me started at Online gaming. Also, maybe we are a bit influenced by japan a bit too much...
Influence brought by japan as far as i can see is the anime/manga/cosplay culture. Korean brought kpop and hard to forget dance move, also korean drama. I can also see some korean variety show being adopted by local tv station (ex. I can see your voice). American gave us burger mania
Here, "wearing the pants" means "being the top on the family hierarchy" (because pants are male clothing and the father was the one suppossed to be the boss when the expression was coined). This means things happen as they wish and the last decision is theirs, to the point, in some cases, of answering for the other (often oppossite to what the other would have liked to answer).
No seriously french sounds classy and english with french accent sounds sexy well for girls. Hearing French madame speaking english in their accent will make you hot. In the other hand italian accent sound passionate to me. It's like you meet your lover when you heard Italian girls speaking english in their accent. Oh don't forget Mother Russia! When hearing their girl speak english it's feel like rough play in you know where...
You're just a perverted old man who can't have enough with his harem XD I swear that if you come from a latin speaking country, the words only sounds crude and dispationate. As for russia, it just gives me the feeling that they want to punch me or are very angry. And you've never heard a french madam whispering in your ears kinky things.. THAT is true arousal
you should try experiencing a arranged marriage interview with a hairy girl with a thick monobrow while her hairy/creepy dad sits in a corner and stares at you if your p***s doesn't shrink you my brother are a try man also for some I feel like you also haven't experienced what it's like to have a french madam whisper erotic things in your ear neither has anyone else on this site
this discussion went from people discussing the serious problem of nationality stereotypes to bragging
Sucks to be you xp i can imagine the scene pretty well, and since he's so overly conscious of his daughter's "beauty" they wouldn't let you go as a potential partner XD But it's true i don't hear french madam whispering into my ears very often... since i'm the one saying them XD
Prong is a riajuu, he a natural ugly repelant i don't think he could understand the misfortune of this poor soul XD
Yep i'm one of those rare breeds called french that eat cheese and wine... and don't forget the baguette !!
