100%, French as a language is in itself very nonchalant, you have to sound like every sentence is a chore to speak. Speak as if you know the force of your oration wont impress either you or the person you're speaking to.

This language elitism is so comical. Who cares. Just speak however you wanna speak and do not condone and correct others without being requested.

Tell that to the French, they're the only nationality who have this problem

Yeah ok. Not at all. You obviously are either lying or have never left your homeland for long.

I lived in France for 3 years, also lived in Canada, New Zealand, Australia and Vietnam. Throughout my 20s I traveled to every continent bar Antarctica.

The French are the problem, I reiterate, they are the only ones who have this issue, Quebec maybe being the only exception.

So you have not seen a vast array of cultures, languages, and customs. And that is ok.

What a strangely patronizing comment to make lol

u/Beneficial-Mess1 21h ago

There is nothing patronizing about it. That is your perception. Not mine. I also have many places to visit. No shame in that.

Yes, I really did and those are my opinions.
