3:45 pm
we have our friends expert phones will not always true jeannie that french people and in particucular parisians aren't considered the most. polite people in the world and yet there's a whole series of rules out there governing just. everything join us as we explore this paradox. hi e everyone welcome to french connections now you might be familiar with our usual weekly show this is a brand new extended version that's right judy we're gonna take you behind the scecenes and explore a particular t. in france and today we're going to focus on french. at a kid because it's fascinating genie there's this a reputation that french people and in particular for reasons are very rude but thehe truth of the matter is they're obsessed with etiquette and behaving the right way said well the there's a right way to behave the french
3:46 pm
way -- and a wrong way to aboutt every other week now in a perfect differential world there is a set o of rules that governs even the most mundane things from talking on the telephone to how to behave in public transportation in him hint you shouldn't speak too lououdly and and same. goes for a restaurant and of course when it comes to greeting peopople the french are very particular. saying hello in france italy an obstacle course. first of all it depends on the time of the day anytime before six pm you say. and after six pm. is. swap will swap. now that mightht sound incrediby easy but it's not it's actually quite tricky and if it weren't though it wouldn't be any fun. the thing to remember is you have to say bushels whenever you interact with anybody especially in a shop or cafe. you can't just say excuse me you hahave to say -- rule or the peperson might get offended and
3:47 pm
seriously ignore you. things can get tricky when several people are involved like in an elevator when you walkk into a an elevator you have to y hello to everyone or people will secretly judging. and a special word for tourists when you're asking for directions make sure you make the effort to say bulls rule in french first don't just start speaking english like. where's the eiffel tower. now you see this sounds like nails on a chalkboard for french people because you're in france but you're not even making the effort to speak french you see. bushel is the one magic word you need to learn whehen you come to france and it might just be the way to french people's hearts. saying bonjour is a trick that really works and if you had - -- on glay it's even better now that is a tip that i gave to my own mother and she came back from france and how nice everybody what do thehe ready fr french people to call you out if you don't sables of angie this hahaened to me just last year.
3:48 pm
i almost got hit by a car -- and driver interrupted my dealing which was well in title to do to say. to me to essentially teach me a lessoson now admittedly ths guy with complete idiot but it goes to show just how serioiousy french peoplee take t this bulls will business and french people learn this code of conducuct frm a very young age so it comes naturally to them almosost. like breathing but for non french people the system can be very tricky to navigate it's so true jean it's so easy to trip over these invisible rules these invisible lines but if you do you k kind of upset and natural balancnce. anand therefore can be treated o sosome of that tradedemark frenh rudeness that often accompanied with a lesson in politeness whetheher or not french people e real etiquette expert is still up for debate but one thihing's for sure and he certaiainly invented the word. etiquette is our word. time to explore the origin of the english word etiquette.. where does it t come from?
3:49 pm
it gets is commonly usesed for a tag that's attached to an object to indicicate something about it for example it's price. comes from the old french. word for labeled ticket. so how did it come to mean the conventional. social. well. believe it happened. small cards were written with instructions for how to conduct oneself properly. ananother explanation i is that directions f for behavior were writitten for soldiers arrivingn temporary lodging. it eventually make english in the seventeen fifties but witita brand new meananing. what's intereresting is that the modern french word it's the cat is used to designatee a label bt in many ways that's exactly what a kid it's a label that s says that your educated it says that your cultivated and other thing. that are held in high esteem in france and therefore worthy of respect and politeness france's obsession with good behavior is centuries old but its history of manners is somewhat uneven it certainly is now when friends had kings that's when.
3:50 pm
the kid was in its prime and subjects in court were terrified of ridicule and therefore eager to help polite each other but it wasn't about politeness it was about establishing rank and power but all of that change of course with the french revolution and everything changed with the french. revolution the republican passion for a quality trumped the rules of gentility now in the nineteenth centuryry etiquee made somewhat of a comeback with the rise of the bourgeoisie but that all came down crashingng yt again -- j just after the first world war these days the majority of french people say that french i think it is very important and something that they actually want to teach their children this is called the all important. yeah and then they all well bred and it's incredible how well the hey french children can be in public like in restaurants for example here in the beautiful cappy to come ask where we are now and that brings us. to another mine field for non french people table manners and as we say in french at the end.
3:51 pm
there are some universalal rules like you don't put your elbows on the table you don't chew with your mouth open youou don't pick your teeth you don't push your food with your hands. but there are some french particularly and you got some extra dinner party advise. i've been invited to a french dinner party and i'm really worried i'm gonna make a full class so i've asked not he did see a friend etiquette expert to give me some tips money thank you so much. for helping me out today thanks cheryl center twenty five what time should i arrive. at a friend's dinner party you have to be in a quarter of our late you know fifteen minutes fifteen minutes is good why because maybe i would not be ready. at a friend's dinner. the war is. i will propose you where do you see it and me i was sick first is that first okay i would say first. i knew would suggest one second after me do we say but if it see no no no i think of going to
3:52 pm

3:56 pm
and have a little discussion at the beginning o of the day now. kimberly in my opinion this isn't so much true for when you greet people but it's certainly trtrue for when you say goodbyeo people you have to say goodbye to each and every person. that's in the room that youou've been interactingng with i don't know if i agree with you so i find saying hello in this country so confusing there's the hand shaking there's the kissin. bees as it's called here but don't worry we'll get to all of that inn a an upcomingng french connection and keep in mind that the french beingng friends they love to break their own rules. butt they know how to do it so f you're gonna break the rules just know what you're doing well that wraps it up for this extended edition of french connection thanks so much for watching don't forget. if you have any other questions about france or ththe french you can write to flow. we'll see you next time for frenchch connectction [inaudibl] right. stories that appears in the news spread on the internet -- using
