Hugh Laurie speak French

[pduggan845]

i had sudden flashbacks to eurovision

[GrupmZwong]

Of course he is british. American people don't really learn foreign languages at school. They do it obviously just for the fun of it

[dajpd]

mdr il peut vraiment parler francais hein

[Tripminator]

trolling at it's finest

[LucisFerre1]

And the Emmy goes to some guy I've never heard of.

[BohemianFish]

The guy who won was in House was't he? As the psych when House gets put into an institution?

[MSAlex23]

He's good :) Really, I'm from Quebec

[selene2302]

French and English two big languages...-as there are others- and this is funny

[azahara1414]

[Kalnaf]

J'ai etudie le francais pour quatre ans, mais, mon compétences de la langue n'est améliorer pas..

[DarthJedi2005remixes]

Anyone else feel like they're watching a Eurovision presenting couple in the making? :-D

[323tiim]

@DarthJedi2005remixes Hahahah, i thought the same thing hahah

[mozgren]

It's strange to hear Hugh Laurie speaking with an American accent! And he speaks French.

[MrNiek]

@mozgren He's British, not an American.

[mozgren]

@MrNiek Yes I know. So am I. Hugh Laurie's best role was in Blackadder with Rowan Atkinson (later known as Mr Bean). Google under "Hugh Laurie Blackadder Youtube."

[MrNiek]

@mozgren

But why do you mention an American accent, he doesn't has one(so far I know).

[zVenFTW]

@MrNiek He had to learn american accent for House M.D.

[mozgren]

@MrNiek I learned English from my dad who is English. 'English' is the language spoken by the English and there are many dialects and accents here which even more incomprehensible, even to an Englishman, than the American dialect. Few Americans were aware that Hugh Laurie is English (born in Oxford) before he was interviewed He's been known here for years before as a comedy actor and comedian with Stephen Fry (see 'A Little Bit of Fry and Laurie').

[MrNiek]

@mozgren @zVenFTW

I understand now, I'm dutch so its hard for me to hear the difference.

So first I didn't understand your reaction, but now I understand.

Thx :)

[mozgren]

@MrNiek If English is not your first language it's unlikely you will be able to detect easily the difference in accents.

[mozgren]

@mozgren No problem!

[elarios77]

@mozgren His french accent is like a Canadian french accent

[Angel77777771]

Hugh Laurie is so freaking AWESOME! And sexy too.

[angiem577]

Poof... cinq!

XD

[goken2424]

Absolutely brilliant :D

[Faxtrat100]

JET' AIME DR HOUSE HAHAHHA MERCI....tU' ME MANQUES..

[isa2des]

He speaks french with a really good accent. I'm impressed !

[screams240]

@rrrrko real french and that's what's funny lol

[rrrrko]

is that actually french or something that sounds french?

[elizebethjames]

he could be vincent cassel's twin brother here

[0299792458]

Pour les français. "Winnowing" utilisé comme un infinitif veut dire "vanner", "faire le tri", "cribler"...

Evidemment c'est dans un sens figuré, ce n'est pas de céréales dont on parle. Ils doivent choisir les meilleurs parmi un grand nombre d'acteurs.

"You know... Every year the academy has the difficult task of winnowing literally hundreds of stunning performances down to a meagre list of just five."

[rachelmacc]

poof... cinq.

[bethabee100]

pff cinq...hehehehe

[veresviola]

please somebody tells me what laurie said :D:D

[DanishGamer]

@veresviola Think he is translating..

[0299792458]

@veresviola "Mr. Laurie and I are both very very proud of presenting an award in such a prestigious ceremony." "Mr. Laurie et moi-même sommes très très fiers de présenter le prix d'une si prestigieuse catégorie." "You know... Every year the Academy" "Vous savez que chaque année, l'Académie..." "has the difficult task..." "a la tache presque impossible..." "...of winnowing..." "De...'winnowing'......" "literally hundreds of stunning performances down to a meagre list of just five." "Pouf! Cinq"

[veresviola]

@0299792458 haha :D:D thank you very much :)))

[0299792458]

@veresviola

Maybe I'm wrong about something because I'm spanish but I think that's it.

[kikistrike11]

Funny!!!



[kristbjorg999]

poufff.... cinq :) love Hugh Laurie

[hbkgirl75]

Quoi? Quoi? Tout le monde, quoi? mais, le monde, d'habitude, mais, je pense... Bing tiddle tiddle bang. Bing tiddle fiddle bing. Bing fiddle fiddle tiddle tiddle. Bing fiddle tiddle tiddle BONG!

[kittycattrashbag]

[G666leSh666le]

His personality and professional morals seem to have taken a hike since doing Blackadder

Is the fucker doing heroin or something?

[Cleroth]

@G666leSh666le Why should you care?

[victoriaisntsosecret]

"Poof! Cinq!" I love that!

[johnnytastetest]

The video description's bad translation is...tres drole.

"The presenter is known in America under the name of Conan!"

Ha.

[tangycheezexists]

[Kniveus]

And yes, he was really translating in french.

[gunterdak]

Sir Ben Kingsley is amused!

[akram4179]

is he really speaking french or just some nonsense that sounds french?

[imalsomemphis]

@akram4179 it is french

[Chesterfiled]

Puff.. cinque! :D

[ymogenewiccan]

"Poof!...cinq." hahaha, omg, i'm dying of laughter..Hugh, you adorable comic genius, you.

[BaliatorO]

next time ... i'd suggest speaking this one:

"Domnul Laurie şi eu suntem foarte foarte mândri de ocazia primită de a prezenta..."

like french but totally diffrent language

keep it up HL !

[gildlily78]

How can you not LOVE Hugh Laurie :)

[senningenin129]

So according to Helen Miren, French isn't proper... trop drole :/

[xRejectedDigiDestine]

@senningenin129

She just meant in English, so everyone could understand. Nothing more. :P

[CarlosAntonioBrown]

"pouf! Cinq"

[fwuffleclouds15]

Was this even in France? xD

[CP5G]

[marvincontendo]

[BoustoTV]

@NepoNew

[WhyyS0Serious]

@Lyndonandre Personne n'est parfait ♪

[zackfair73195]

@Lyndonandre C'est dommage.

[23guitar314]

This is House speaking French :D

[wilsonjules11]

I can't believe they both kept straight faces.

[CaribeanBarbieGirl]

Il parle super bien français ! What a good translation he did !

[cornyBandit]

yeah he is so sexy!

his wit, his smirk love it!

[0SukMunky0]

This is so funny lol.

"l'academie! a la tâche presque impossible!"

[jamesjiao]

poof.. cinq...lmao.. Simple and effective translation!

[Necronometer]

Je n'ai pas le coeur pour le parler en français sur la télévision nationale... Je suis américaine et je sais que j'ai un fort accent, donc je suis trop gênée pour le parler. Une amie française m'a fait réciter "Les Chaussettes de L'Archiduchesse" et j'étais terrible! haha. Hugh Laurie est un anglophone magnifique.

[AdmiralCoconuts]

*poof* cinq!

[Elldarya]

Ah merci bien tout le monde. :-)

[Elldarya]

C'est quel mot qu'elle dit que Hugh de peut pas traduire et où tout le monde rigole s'il vous plaît ? :D

[NepoNew]

@Elldarya Je croit que c'est "of winnowing" mais je suis pas sur !!

[CLANCYFRANCE]

@Elldarya

Oui, c'est 'winnowing'. Ca veut dire 'démêler' (des centains d'interprétations). Et voilà!

[bouelf]

@Elldarya Winnowing, selon babel fish la traduction direct serait "vannage" et ma traduction libre serait "Trier" ou "Séparer". Voilà!

[NepoNew]

@bouelf Moi ma traduction c'est "vannage"

[elliotuke95]

@NepoNew Je suis Anglais, est pour moi, la traduction plus correcte est 'Séparer'.

[florian2211S]

@bouelf Décerner ... "to give the winn to" i think in english i think

[TalyaSan]

@bouelf Hahahahah ça veut dire nominer

[gruella6]

@Elldarya

winnowing = faire le tri parmi ...

[gruella6]

@Elldarya

winnowing = faire le tri parmi ...

[mcdidi04]

@Elldarya On dirait "innové"... mais sans aucune certidutes car je n'est pas trop compris aussi ^^

[Elldarya]

Je dirais plutôt Allemand ...

[Xarazerth]

Il a l'accent québécois

[minetminet]

@Xarazerth Je n'irais pas jusque là lol XD

[Bmomo56]
