I don't really have anything against the French except that, as an American, I've been bred to despise them with the same zeal as soccer and Renny Harlin films.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
We have hated the French for years. Now you have just joined the club. It makes you much more likable.
I had always studied French and was obsessed with French films. I hated the way American films always had happy endings. I liked the way French films had dark and unpleasant characters; it was much more realistic.
The French consider themselves the guardians of the world's culture and do not bother to hide the fact, which is annoying, but Paris is still where good Americans want to go when they die - and Brits, Russians, and Chinese as well, these days.
I am Parisian. I don't love the French.
One thing I can say about the French language is that no one in the world loves their language as much as they do. It doesn't matter if you're close - it still sounds terrible to their ears.
They're very nationalistic the French - or they used to be. Very insular. Pretty arrogant.
The French are very individualistic.
The French have the reputation of being arrogant. I don't think it's arrogance but a certain authenticity.
I like Frenchmen very much, because even when they insult you they do it so nicely.
I loved France, although I initially thought they were stubborn for always speaking French.
