You get the feeling that many of my guests feel that the French language gives them entry into a more cultivated, more intelligent world, more highly civilised too, with rules.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
The more English is heard in the world, the more gratifying it seems to speak French, and above all to know the culture of our country. They find a kind of French social grace in the language and culture.
French is a language that makes those who speak it both calm and dynamic.
The French have got taste.
I grew up in France, my first language was French, and I tend to gravitate towards French cooking.
The French are very individualistic.
For me, French is so rich and so sacred that learning it is like learning a foreign language.
The French hold onto their traditions. I was always so alienated in America. My work was this constant reaction to that.
In France, everyone speaks French 'cause they think it's cool. Gives 'em, gives 'em an excuse to smoke.
We have hated the French for years. Now you have just joined the club. It makes you much more likable.
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.
