In french there is also the word "grâce" for "thanks", it's not common though
it can be used like "grâce à toi" which would mean "thanks to you"

French retained, more or less of course, the medieval spelling, but the pronunciation evolved. For instance the word for Easter is "Pâques" pronounced [pak]. In Middle French it was "Pasques" (pronounced [pask], like modern Welsh word "Pasg") and in Old French it was "pasques" pronounced [paskes].

Maison has the same root of Latin mansionis (place to live, residence), which derived mansion and mansão.

More videos with this group, please. They are smart, elegant and represent their respective countries very well.

"Viande" in French is Latin-based and it comes from the word "vivanda" in Latin, and according to Wiktionary:
"Inherited from Old French viande, from Vulgar Latin *vīvanda, alteration of Latin vīvenda, from the neuter plural form of vīvendus, from vīvere (“to live”). Compare English viand, Italian vivanda, Portuguese vivenda, Spanish vivienda."
By the way, In German, meat is "Fleisch," which is obviously a cognate with English's "flesh." 😊

In Canadian french (province of Québec), we say "Espadrilles" instead of "Basket" for sneakers.

I am studying history and I had a course on languages. This was my favorite class of all my college years. I learned so many exciting things, for example, how languages influence each other and why. (Commercial, contact, domination...).
French originated from Latin, but it was strongly influenced by Celtic and Germanic languages in its pronunciation due to the fact that there was contact and mixing of populations. Hence the fact that pronunciation in French is VERY different from other Latin languages.
In the same way, Romanian is a Latin language but has been influenced by nearby languages, hence the fact that it no longer really sounds Latin.
We still find the same patterns between French and Italian. For example, words in "ch" in French are in "ca" in Italian (if they existed in Latin.) "chèvre" becomes "capra", "chien" becomes "cane", "chaîne" becomes "catena" etc. Words in "cl" in French are in "chi" in Italian. (clé- chiave, clair - chiaro...) -> we can find the same phenomenon between English and German (night - nacht, eight - acht...)
As said in the video, Spanish has been in contact with Arabic, so we find borrowings from Arabic.
On the subject of borrowings between different family languages (or not necessarily), there are also some super interesting things to notice: borrowings can be linked to a level of prestige. The culture associated with knowledge and medicine is ancient Greece, and there is a lot of Greek in this field. In classical music, opera, etc. it's more of an Italian influence. The cuisine, rather French, as we can notice with English (beef, which comes from the word "boeuf" in French etc.)
In the context of my studies, it's really usefull to think about the patterns we observe, because it allows us to obtain information on ancient cultures without having access to writings or traces. As I gave the example with the French words in ch and the Italian words in ca: the words that we find are words that existed for those who spoke Latin, therefore concepts that come from ancient cultures. For Latin, we have enough archaeological traces, etc. but there are other cultures where this is not the case, but we can find out if they had horses, metal (bronze, gold etc.), we can even try to guess the social structures, if there is a word for king, for queen, or not etc. with languages which came from those cultures. It's not infallible, given that languages borrow from each other and evolve, but we can still get a lot of information from that and I find that absolutely fascinating.

I’m so happy to see the Brazilian girl again, she’s my bias (she and the girl from Spain)! And Catalan is awesome, more Catalan please!

One of my favorite words that a lot of Romance language speakers don't realize are related to their French counterpart is Monsieur and Madame (Mr./Sir and Mrs./Ma'am). Mon is basically the masculine form of my (mi or mio), and Sieur is basically sir (señor, senhor, signore), which happens to also be related to the word senior. Ma is also the feminine form of my (mi or mia), and Dame, which we also have in English, is basically lady (dama, donna). The Italian word madonna is basically the same as madame.

The thing is that French is NOT different from other latin languages. Only the phonology is really special, which makes it SOUND different. But in the grammatical aspects and vocabulary it's ultra similar to other romance languages. French is closer to Italian than Spanish to italian for exemple. The similarity of several languages is not determined by the way it sounds. I'm French, I never took one single italian or romanian class, but in the written form I understand a lot from them and it would be really easy to learn them. Spanish is super easy to me and since I study a slavic language (polish) that is totally different, I realised even more how French was similar to Spanish in terms of grammar, syntax, structure.

I did some research, and it turns out that "viande" actually does come from a Latin root, which is "vivenda," approximately meaning "life-serving" or "life-giving."

What a delightful group

So happy listening to Catalan, cuz it's my language (I'm from Valencia, just in the sourth). And, wait all of you, two remarks:
[9:37] 1. We all Catalan speakers use the same Portuguese word for skirt, which is 'saia', but ONLY in the folkloric skirts. The used is only limited to this specific situation. If you go to see 'Falles traditional celebration' in València, it's a word for one type of cloth for the feminine and masculine dress used in Falles.
[10:47] 2. For "sneekers" we can say "vambes" pronounced as /vambas/ or /vambes/ (depending on if you're in Valencia/west Catalonia, or East Catalonia +Balearic Islands). This is the casual word instead of "Sapatilles esportilles" which is the academic version, or more formal version, which is 100% acceptable and cool ,).

They didn't mention the actual reason why French is so different. French is influenced by their Celtic heritage (Gaulish to be more specific), with a sprinkle of Frankish influence. English also picked up some of that influence from the Norman French (which itself was a version of the Gallo-Romance language spoken in the area we now know as Normandy after being influenced by Old Norse) that crossed the channel when the Normans became the ruling class of England. The Celts in Britain likely came from continental Europe several hundreds of years before then, with multiple regions producing their own variant of that language in relative isolation. Nowadays we typically think of the British Isles when we think of the word "Celtic" but the Celts were very widespread before Romans and Germanic people spread their influence. They were also in Iberia, but the Romans spread their influence in that area hundreds of years before they conquered Gaul (and were subsequently taken over by the Franks hundreds of years after). Certain parts of northern Italy have been influenced by the Gaulish language as well. The Arabian influence in Spain is relatively well known, but the Celtic influence is rarely mentioned even in France where it remained to some degree for quite some time even after being conquered by Romans and Franks.
