    We Brits don't hate the "French"... We just have literately thousands of years of history... a lot of it historic fighting... but at the same time a lot of it invading or living in each others countries. Neither has ever not respected the other... however in the last 2 centuries the Brits and French fought alongside each other rather than against each other... and even more respect was achieved. The French literately allow us Brits to patrol the boarder INSIDE their country with full law and support... let that sink in. Murray mainly takes the mick out of Britain... but he will take turns with every other "stereotype" now and then... but he does it by portraying the "ignorant English" stereotype.

    Eating goose and duck isn't that weird in continental Europe and horsemeat is also readily available in Germany, and if you can kill a cow and eat it, why not a horse? But to me, it's the way foie gras is made that freaks me out, and it turns out, it's not just geese and ducks they treat this way, they also used to do it (until 2007) to ortolans (a small native songbird). I have copied the wikipedia description: "The birds are caught with nets set during their autumn migratory flight to Africa. They are then kept in covered cages or boxes. The birds react to the dark by gorging themselves on grain, usually millet seed, until they double their bulk. The birds are then thrown into a container of Armagnac, which both drowns and marinates the birds. The bird is roasted for eight minutes and then plucked. The consumer then places the bird feet first into their mouth while holding onto the bird's head. The ortolan is then eaten whole, with or without the head, and the consumer spits out the larger bones. The traditional way French gourmands eat ortolans is to cover their heads and face with a large napkin or towel while consuming the bird." I'm not British, but I can see why they find the French a bit strange 😅

    I am English but speak some French after four years of learning at my London school and Al was speaking perfect French. I understand he did a complete stand up in France in French. I believe he speaks some Italian and perfect German. I think I read some where he has a Austrian grandparent.

    What a lot of non British people don’t realise is the joke is always on us - the British have a very attractive and healthy well rounded ability to laugh at ourselves - you watch any of the al Murray sketches and you’ll see that the main butt of the joke is Al himself because of his childish delusions - the same goes for Catherine Tate in the Interpreter sketch - many people thought that was racist but it isn’t because the joke is on her and how cuckoo her character is. And that’s why British humour is the best there is without a doubt - yes we take the puss out of you but that’s okay because we take the piss out of ourselves even more 👌 And you guys - boomer and boomerette - is so adorable seeing you happy and cute with each other as parenthood and sleepless nights loom 🤣 This video is going to be SO beautiful for you to watch back in 30 years from now.

In Sweden we always learn English and also most commonly French/German/Spanish but other languages too, different schools teach different languages. French, German and Spanish classes are required at all schools unless the courses gets fewer than 5 registrations.

British, Americans, Swiss, Dutch, German (East and West) an Australian and a lone Swede all socialised and formed a very happy and close knit group. Who were missing? The French of course, insular and arrogant. As always.

    For eating horses - a few years ago UK health inspectors discovered some meats that had been sold here contained horse meat - nothing mentioned on the label and I suspect not allowed. The Brits were not happy (or so the news said) - also note UK laws state the ingredients must be on the packaging - I think it was 'beef'burgers where it was discovered.

    French is similar difficulty to Spanish but I'd say it starts out harder because of spelling and grammatical gender (Spanish has the -o/-a rule which helps for lots of words) but ends up easier because English uses a ton of loan words from French. It's super easy to talk about anything even slightly technical in French because all our words for that stuff are IN French 😂 German is a bit harder than either of them even though English is a Germanic language; the grammar is less similar to English or French and there are fewer recognisable words on average 😄

    The basic words are really similar! Most of the Germanic words shared between English and German are the super high-frequency ones but there are way more French and Latin words overall. Germanic words include stuff like: haus, feuer (fire), tier (like 'deer' but it means 'animal' in general in German) but think of all the words ending in '-ation' - nation, compensation, irrigation... all from, or based on, French. There are so many others, like almost all our law terminology is based on French words. Cinema and theatre too. All sorts. However, stuff like "meine name ist" is very close to English as compared with "Je m'appelle" or a more literal "mon nom est" - you do get some great free vocabulary with German 😂@@JamesLMason

    French fact # 3876. Joan of Arc (Jehanne d'Arc) never came from 'Arc' In fact, there wasn't a town or place called 'Arc' anywhere in France at the time. Joan was born and grew up in a place called Domrémy. It is now thought that the 'd'Arc' thing is a confusion of the family name, which was either 'Darc' or 'Tarc'.
