They are not assholes for preferring their own language over the beetroot-chomping English (Simplified) of some obnoxious foreigners, too arrogant to at least adapt a little.
They’re assholes.
I speak French, in Paris they still look at you like garbage.
Actually, outside of Paris I got along fine, but here’s the thing: Even native french speakers from outside of Paris are treated like absolute garbage by Parisians, it’s their only setting.
Yeah, but … that’s like saying “Oh, that’s just London!” about England, that’s the key part of the country.
Paris would be so much better if it weren’t for the fucking Parisians.
You sound French.
I speak three languages, I don’t speak French on purpose and I will never learn it, I’d rather learn Russian or Hebrew than French.
They are as arrogant as it gets and they are hated for it rightfully.
I happen to speak French, German, Dutch and a bit of Russian, and if I dig deep, some remnants of Arabic might come up. I can assure you Russian is the more poetic but French definitely the easiest to learn.
