Romanian is an East Romance language primarily spoken in Romania and Moldova. French (française) is a Romance language that descended from the Vulgar Latin of the Roman Empire, as did all Romance languages. French has evolved from Gallo-Romance, the spoken Latin in Gaul, and more specifically in Northern Gaul. Today, French is one of the most widely spoken languages in the word and a French-speaking person or nation is often referred to as Francophone in both English and French. French is an official language Belgium, Benin, Burkina Faso, Burundi, Cameroon, Canada, Central African Republic, Chad, Comoros, Congo, Democratic Republic of the Congo, Djibouti, Equatorial Guinea, France, Gabon, Guinea, Haiti, Ivory Coast, Luxembourg, Madagascar, Mali, Monaco, Niger, Rwanda, Senegal, Seychelles, Switzerland, Togo, and Vanuatu. French is spoken as a first language in many parts of the world outside of France, including the Canadian province of Quebec, and among large communities in the Canadian provinces of Ontario and New Brunswick, and numerous other places including parts of the United States such as Louisiana, Maine, New Hampshire, and Vermont.

    Dear Bahador I just noticed that you've had Andrei in your videos for a while now and you've made quite a few videos comparing Romanian with other (European) languages so how come you haven't done a video comparing Romanian and Persian?I'm sure you know they are both Indo-European so finding cognates between them shouldn't be a difficult task.right now I know one word which is the same in Romanian and that's دشمن :) Anyways hope you can manage a video with Mahtab competing with Andrei and I hope that Mahtab wins:D oh,and please bring Serena on the camera more often because we would love to see her

    @@lucascordaro6634 I am a Romanian speaking French. No, a native French speaker would have been harder to comprehend, they would speak too "harsh" for us and the difference in accentuation will definitely hinder the understanding. Please note that he repeatedly asks to read or to pronounce the word by each letter: we use almost the same letters for common (between French and Romanian) words. They didn't choose the word "water" :) In Romanian it would be "apa" and in French it would be "eau". Good luck to any Romanian to understand it :) On the other hand, we have very many substantives common with French; very many verbs are different (simple examples: alerga - courir - to run; gindi - penser - to think; citi - lire - to read). This type of exercise would be insanely more complex if they would be having a conversation (2 people in one language, 2 people in another language, trying to understand). If I would have to compare to italian, again, very many common words. But me (and not only me), without studying italian or latin, nor living/visiting Italy, Spain, Portugal, Brasil I will understand maybe 10% of the spoken italian on the street (on tv is easier, their pronunciation is clearer) and about 20-30% written Italian. If we will translate this type of exercise to French, a Romanian without studying French will not understand most of the spoken or written French. Maybe we would understand 1%?

    Listening is only hard because of the speed in which people speak and the slang they use. Listening to an audio book or material recorded for learners is ten times easier than reading it, at least for me. The spelling of that language is, if you aren't used to it, NUTS and makes reading considerably harder. Étais, était, étaient...all pronounced the same and like they should just be spelled étè. French has a more Germanic R than say, Italian, but it's not like a Germanic language. I'd say German is ten times easier to read and write than French though it's much harder to speak. English spelling too is nuts, but I'm just used to it.

    @@alexsamu3478 Nu este doar asta explicația. Este doar o mică parte din explicație. Adevărul este mult mai profund și complex. Limba latină își trage rădăcinile din limba veche română, care este atât de veche încât cuvintele care par a veni acum din alte limbi, în special din slavă, greacă, turcă, etc., sunt de fapt influențe ale vechii limbi "române" in toate celelalte limbi. Majoritatea influențelor "latine" din celelalte limbi, în special în limbile germanice, slavone, nu vin propriuzis din latină ci din precursoarea ei, limba "română" ancestrală. Populațiile vorbitoare a acestei limbi ancestrale au migrat de-a lungul malului nordic mediteranean precum și în multe alte direcții. Iată deci, o posibilă explicație logică a asemănării dintre albaneză și română de exemplu. Sau a vorbitorilor de vallader in Elveția, care reprezintă o rămășiță a acestor populații de păstori valahi. Dealtfel în întreaga europă găsim rămășițe din aceste populații ce provin din păstorii valahi (valoni, welch, welches). Mai apoi limba a evoluat în direcții diferite, pe de o parte actuala limbă română si pe de altă parte latina și de aici franceza, italiana, spaniola, portugheza care sunt limbi latinice, foarte înrudite cu româna actuală și cea veche - bunicuța lor! Evoluția a fost asemănătoare cu multe intersecții, una fiind cea de acum 2000 de ani cu romanii iar alta e cea menționată de tine - care s-a petrecut în cunoștință de cauză a celor de atunci (istorici și lingviști care cunoșteau prea bine adevărul istoric).

    Should've had European French speaker, not quebecois. It's off compared to European French and Romanian is European so it would be closer. For example when she's saying "vent" she says it like a European French speaker would say "vin" (whine). You notice how he immediatly picked up on it when it's spelled out and then the Romanian version "vânt" of the word wind is pronounced exactly like the European French pronunciation of "vent". Basically he would have it easier with European French, hearing her speak those French words even I, who can understand French fine, had to listen twice.

    I want to thank you for featuring Canadian French, as it is important for the world to realize that French-Canadians are also native French speakers. In fact, the Quebec of Canada is home to the second largest native French speakers in the entire world!! This is important for the global community to understand, because some people say French-Canadians aren't really speaking French or aren't native speakers because of their accent and the way they pronounce some words, but that's like someone from England saying a native English speaker from Canada or the United Sates isn't "really speaking English" or "isn't a native speaker". So thank you again and I hope the world recognizes this very important native French speaking community!

    Should've been called "Similarities between Quebecois and Romanian" I was thrown off with "Ours" (Romanian Urs) because here in France, the s is pronounced. I thought I just didn't hear it properly, and then with mare/mer, I realized it was indeed North American French (Quebecois and Cajun) 'er' on a strong syllable is pronounced like ar is Spanish, or even more like in Catalan "mar" (which is also an older French spelling/pronunciation). At the end they mentioned the words for "apple" and "tree". One mustn't forget that words narrow down on their meaning as synonyms take on the general meaning. French "pomme" is a word which used to mean "fruit" but the Latin word "fructus" took over the general meaning while pomme became apple. By the way the same thing happened with apple with the arrival of Norman French nobility/aristocracy in England during the Norman Conquest of 1066. The Norse already gave up their North Germanic tongue when settling in what became Normandy and weren't going to give up their adopted Language for North Sea West Germanic just because they relocated (they Imposed Norman on the court, and vocabulary penetrated the language of the commoners) at least not until their rivalry with the French Kings and need of the support of the English people to fight the French (previously latinized, though it took awhile, Germanic Franks under similar conditions). FR "arbre" = RO "arbore" RO "pom" similar to FR "palmier" which has a top called "palme", and the palm of the hand = paume pronounced almost like Romanian "pom", by the way the Romanian word for palm tree is the French word palmier.

I could guess Lumina correctly because I also read over things about Rome/the Latin language too, so knowing the “grandfather” language is also helpful : > “Tot” was interesting though, I thought of it as the French world for “early” (tôt)

    If you want to have good knowledge of French, you need to understand different accents. Yes it's Québécois and Québécois are the 2nd largest native French speakers, and it is a very beautiful accent. Why must other French speakers be so rude and arrogant to always put down Québécois accent?

    @@louisfisher614 all I wanted to say is that France's accent might have been closer in pronunciation to Romanian than the Canadian one. For example when she said "our" and he said "ours" these two words are literally the same in France's French. Also I'm allowed to have preferences, Canadian French sounds a little bit odd to me. Still I respect all cultures equally.

    Well of course romanian is similar to Spanish because they are two real latin languages, Spanish is influenced by arabic French for me it's the least latin of all romance languages, why? Because it differs a lot from the Latin common root, pronounciation is extremely different and it resembles Germanic languages such as German and English, so you can note the Germanic influence at least in the pronounciation
