Numbers were the hardest to learn :-(
The alphabet 'r' required a throat clearing sound to pronounce correctly[ry/quote]
Oh, there's always a work-around; try an 'h' sound instead:
Place de la Hepublique
Voila!
Even to this day
Je na parle pas tres bien francais
C,est tres difficile
In some cases meanings can change so not a really effective hack i would say
Grand Pere(Grandfather) could end up sounding like Grand Peche(Grand Peach)
You teach them mathematics before they even learn numbers
What do you call the alphabet G in German?
Well they shortened the important sentences
J ai faim
As expected, a dumb European will bring up hurr durr like this.
We are talking about language, culture, and so on. Nobody talked about political institutions and scientific advancement etc.
My point was about French being proud of their (social) culture...as in, their everyday culture. Their language, dressing, societal norms, marriage, cuisine, family, music, and blah blah blah.
That is where it is utterly hilarious to see French taking pride. Yeah, it might be a bit better than trash called American culture of today---but French culture is sh*t as it comes. Again, talking about social culture here.
Pakistan's culture outperforms French in many, many aspects (and vice versa, offcourse).
Hell, majority of children in France are born out of wedlock. So basically lowly bastardsYeah much wow, so much 'culture' and civilization. Loool! French food is average at best. And yes, I am talking about FRENCH FOOD in France (well to be honest I had it in Paris. But that counts?).
Pakistani cuisine is far superior, Pakistan's clothing styles are far more diverse and colorful, Pakistan's family culture is significantly better where our girls don't whore themselves around and produce babies willy nilly, and I can go on and on. Our language, Urdu, is beautiful and poetic. And going by this thread, definitely not limited and shitty like French. Tradition and heritage is valued and lived throughout our land unlike in France.
France have better institutions, education/science, influence, and all that. But then again, nobody is in dispute with that to begin with.
In term of social culture, French are below average..just like almost all of West. If we take culture to be achievements, education, scientific advancements, military power, and yada yada---well, then U.S culture is supreme and nobody even comes slightly close...

It`s more like the sound of this...
Effects secondaires de syndrome de la internet tough guy
It`s more like the sound of this...
...and we let the G fade away in the end.

Cultures arent superior or inferior certain practices are good or bad
I had a share of French when we were shooting in Quebec, Canada.
Damn you have one difficult language.
What is written isn't pronounced and whatever letter is mentioned on the paper isn't what it is. When one finally figures out how to pronounce it, the meaning also starts varying!
My mother tongue also has some issues like this but not to this level!
french sounds smooth but its an useless language
It is useful if you plan on doing business in North Africa
