Bradley Cooper Is Bi.....lingual


Bradley Cooper's wide eyes tell me that he will snort the last line at a party without guilt and he looks like the type who won't even use his hand to wipe the sweat bead that dropped from his forehead onto yours when he's hitting it from the front. So naturally, I can understand why some hos swoon until they cream over him. If your ass falls under that category, then you better get your body ready and apologize to your panties in advance, because here he is speaking French like a Rosetta Stone valedictorian.

B.Coop is definitely fancy in more ways than one. He could be talking about turtles snow-balling each other and I wouldn't even know. I have no idea what he's saying, but it doesn't matter a damn. Just put your nipples to the monitor and take it in.

It's good to know that B.Coop will know what you're talking about when you say to him, "Sacrebleume!"

An interesting dialogue is worth comment. I think that you need to write extra on this matter, it might not be a taboo subject but typically individuals are not enough to talk on such topics. To the next. Cheers

Why is everyone always so impressed with speaking French, acting French, and French culture? The French are some of the rudest, most obnoxious, venal assholes on the entire planet! The term "French fire drill" didn't happen by accident!

i have to agree that english appears to be standard in lots of places...i travelled france and 4 other countries and they ALL spoke english fluently..i was ashamed that my french was so rusty and i was there for most of my trip...i wish it was a requirement to learn a second language in the states...

Some people are wondering why someone from North America would bother to learn French. 29 countries in the world have French as an official language and it's the official language spoken by the U.N., so it's not some fusty old language that's not functional.

Having said that, as a lot of people have pointed out, from a purely practical perspective it would seem that in the U.S., Spanish would be a more natural choice, as French is, here in Canada.

Not sure if you were addressing my comment or not, but I am impressed with anyone doing something outside of their own comfort zone. I am also impressed when people bother to actually learn a language and make the effort to use it.

I am not impressed with the French at all. I just like the fact that he speaks another language fluently. If it were Spanish, German, Italian, any language I would still think it was great.

Just my opinion.

Lol, no offence taken. To clarify, Dominique was Parisian,it was MY French which was VERY rusty but she was kind about it and and encouraging, she kept saying that I was doing "very well" (kind lies!). I was sideways commenting that in my limited experience, I was expecting the worst stereotypes of the French and was nicely surprised that's not what I encountered. :-)

BC did well. Not flawless, though he has a good grasp of the grammar. You can hear Provence in the way he pronounces the vowels. Fluency in a second language is always a good thing. Unfortunately,it's not the norm in the US to study a foreign language from an early age.

I think BC is very attractive. It appears that the lady interviewing him thought so as well!

He sounds adorable and like any actor, he's acting partly to cover for his sore spots.

Sorry, but, anyone can 'learn' by just observing and studying ANYTHING if they are so inclined. That doesn't take a master's degree or a 'douche de jour award' or a, "I blew my Left Leaning Liberal Douche Professor" craptasm, and I far more admire people who can master the 'hard sciences' rather than the, "Oh I can beat you at Yahtzee in three languages asshats!" soft science a-holes who make it their life-long fuckery to point out everyone else's typos, grammatical errors and spelling mistakes.

I'm sorry, but, if that's all your degree amounts to is hating on dlisters? You are FUCKED.

That was hot!!! And I'm half-French so I knew what he's saying. And I think his accent is amazing, even if some of the phrasings and words were a little off. But bravo for an American actor to have such a beautiful command of such a rich, oft-despised language of many Americans!

When traveling as an American you only really need to know a few phrases: Help, Good morning/evening, how much? (for purchases of all kinds)fuck you and thank you.

This is the first non-tool-like thing I've ever seen or heard from him. I frickin hated Hangover I and II looks even worse.

But I have to give him grudging props for being fairly fluent. (Every language on earth has those empty words or sounds--in Fr, Ah bon, Ouay, Mais--that fill space while the speaker is forming a thought.)

Euros sometimes say that Americans are dumb or ethnocentric because we can only speak English, but that's not true. Something like 100 languages are spoken at home among the students in the LA public school system. (Surely that's the same in most other urban areas in the US.) Most folks I know--not even considering the ones who speak English as a second language--speak another language at home, then learn at least one more language in school.

When traveling as an American you only really need to know a few phrases: Help, Good morning/evening, how much? (for purchases of all kinds)fuck you and thank you.

The British Empire has won since almost the entire world speaks their language. Don't worry the young Brits are already in China teaching English. It will be that country's second language eventually.

Centaurious's picture

I agree 100%.

Most people in the US who speak Spanish and English have Spanish as their first language; they learn English in school.

Which gives them an advantage that I am quite envious of! :)

The big difference is that JBlow and Skeletor are naturally bilingual and grew up with spanish in the home, while Bradley Cooper did not, and only spent one year in France. That's the big difference. To most posters with fluency in French are impressed with him bc quite frankly, it's not often that you hear an American speak with such ease, including those who have studied it for ages.

Anyone who is french speaking can fully appreciate his proficiency, which quite frankly, is leaps above and beyond most Americans' French. There have been numerous commentaries here by french speaking natives who appreciate his fluency, myself included. His speed, accent, intonations, and inflections are all excellent when you compare him to most Americans who have studied French, even at elite schools.

So give credit where credit is due bc he's pretty darned good!

Oh for effin Chrissakes, give props where props are due. The fucking guy spent his year abroad living with a family in Aix en Provence and he actually learned French and can still speak it. I have a sneaking feeling that they arranged the questions beforehand and someone on his team ran the answers through Google Translator but so what? At least he did his homework. I heard him interviewed on Fresh Air, talking about what a nerd he was in high school and how he found a home with the weirdo actors, and he was articulate and sweet. He's a class act. Head and shoulders above 96% of the idiot actors who stumble through these web pages. Bravo Bradley. I also believe that his "relationship" with Squinty was arranged, and Bravo for playing that like a pro too. They both got a lot of press, walking through the streets with each other, their glaring faces telling the real story--but they got the press so more power to you.

@Whiskey Tango
I agree. English is the standard language abroad,especially with an American accent. They even call it "American English."

I think Americans get excited about certain languages and French is one of them. Americans place more importance over some languages than others. I know I get excited about the Asian languages and German, because they are so different. The Dutch learn English easily and their English is nearly flawless.

Mandarin is taking off in elementary schools, especially in after school programs. One of the best times to learn a language is as a child. I think to compete with the rest of the world, secondary languages are going to have to be taught in elementary schools.

So he can speak French. Big wow! He is alright and his accent doesn't stink, but he definitely was uncomfortable with how fast the interviewer was going. He said beaucoup a lot because he was trying to find another word for "a lot."

I have an English degree, actually a few, a Masters and an MFA, and a second language is needed. Especially if you are going for a PhD. You must be able to translate and interpret texts in another language. I did Latin and classical Greek. If you've done Latin, French is a breeze.

Sorry, my father is French and puts Arnie to shame, so I have no love for French men or accents. Though I did do my wedding theme in the Eiffel tower and served French sparking wine (Risqué) and French champagne (Tattingers) at my reception.

_______________________________________________

Aside from those who go abroad for business or extensive travel, the average American really doesn't have an overwhelming need to learn a second language. English is the lingua franca of the world right now and no matter where you go, someone's guaranteed to know it. Yes, of course the polite and proper thing to do is learn at least a few phrases in the language of the host country, and I'm not excusing annoying fanny pack tourists' behavior, but think about it...unlike in Europe or Asia, where every country has its own language and learning 2 or 3 in addition to English is a necessity, the separate U.S. states all share the same language, and our biggest border is with an English-speaking country.

Why would your average Joe from Appalachia spend his time learning another language (apart from Spanish) when, realistically, he's never going to get the chance to use it? Up until now, with our new "global" economy, it's never really been a big deal that most Americans only speak English...we're kind of isolated on our side of the pond.

myself, I love languages, and I think secondary language instruction should be required in schools. My younger sibs are learning Chinese and Arabic, which weren't even offered when I was in HS. I think Americans are gradually going to become more of a multilingual culture...knowing Spanish really gives you a leg up in the job market, so I'm finding out.

I'm sorry, but thats cool. He's making the effort to speak the native tongue in a country that is full of arrogant cunts! Having lived in a few non-English speaking countries I can say that there need to be more Americans like him - plus I never noticed before how cute he is.

@ Literary Lioness Wow. I've always said that overeducation refines ones personality to the point of being so sharp as to be a prick. But why on earth would you think anyone would care about your resume, let alone your wedding. An overinflated sense of entitlement goes hand in hand with an ego like yours. :)

More of a smartass, but I did grow up in a housing project in San Francisco, so I don't how snotty you can be with that. My French father never paid child support, since he was living in France. No, I don't love all things French. I've lived in France and was not impressed. I will take Italy over France.

To Deb, no I don't think French is a different animal. I think it is sad that Americans get all excited about a fellow American who can speak another language. It is not as hard as you might think. Especially considering Coop was immersed in the language. There are a ton of programs to learn another language.

I brought up the English degree, because it is standard for an English degree to be able to read and write in another language. Seems the Coop chose French for his requirement. I know a ton of English profs who are fluent in a few languages. I am going for sign language next, because I think that would be really useful.

I just don't get how impressed everyone is that Coop can speak another language. What about all the bilingual Spanish speakers out there? No one is getting this excited about Jblow or Skeletor. My husband speaks three fluently, but in his culture (Persian) that is not unusual. That's a big reason for why Americans are looked down upon in other countries.

Sorry, I am not impressed by the Coop. I think Madonna is more fun when she tries her French out. Now if Coop speaks Japanese or Mandarin, I would think something.

Good for him. I am rather impressed.
