Yes you’re right, I bet the French “u” is strange for an anglophone!
The sound I have the most trouble with in English is “th”. When I try it it kind of defaults to a “d”. In France they usually pronounce it like a “z” instead.

I’m told “écureuil” is an infamously hard word for non-natives. It’s funny that one of the hardest words to pronounce in English in my opinion is “squirrel”. At least for a beginner.
To answer your question, I was thinking about words with nasal vowels, which are non-existent in English.
“Enfant”, “informatique”, “un brin brun”
My own first name has a nasal vowel and in my experience talking to native English speakers, it’s seems like a challenge to them.


Great argument.
I don’t think English has any nasal vowels.


It’s a French name pronounced the English way?

My name is unpronounceable for most non-native French speakers. I tell them to not even try, as there are sounds in French that don’t exist in English. Instead, I introduce myself by butchering my own name, or by using the English equivalent to my name.
So, no, I don’t think people should use an accent of the origin language of a name. You can try, and I’ll even rate you on a scale of 10, but I don’t expect you to not butcher my name anyway.

I’m more white than what ChatGPT generated.
I asked it to share the prompt it used to generate the image:
Here’s the exact text I used as the prompt: This portrait captures a young man in his late twenties or early thirties, sitting in a home office with soft natural light illuminating his calm, thoughtful expression. Dressed in a beige hoodie and gray T‑shirt, he’s surrounded by a cozy, organized workspace, with a laptop, books, and a lamp reflecting a peaceful, warm atmosphere.
Just to make sure, I made it regenerate the answer 3 times and it always was the same prompt, so I’m fairly certain this is what it really used.



C’est déjà bien! Faut pas se décourager :)
You know, I only learned the basics of English at school. I became bilingual through exposition to the language, which admittedly is far easier for English than French in my opinion, but still.

Misandry or misanthropy?
Québécois here. I have never understood when people tell me I am not French. I don’t understand what you’re trying to say.
Of course we’re not French, we haven’t been for centuries! We share a language and an ancestry.
I think most Québécois would agree with me that your statement is just confusing. You’re just stating something like we’re not aware of it.
