Parisians try to pronounce English

One of the most valuable things about learning a second language is that it can give you more empathy towards non-native speakers of your own mother tongue. Watching people try to wrap their tongues around words we pronounce with ease probably evokes a different response now, compared to your pre-French learning days.

You’ll probably find yourself barracking for them rather than laughing at them, which could be worth bearing in mind next time you’re worried about making a mistake in front of a native French speaker, non*?

*don’t you think?
