Avril Lavigne-Girlfriend (French Version)

[BAJD8487]

I admit I have the ability of a four year old in understanding French. I really think that thisis NOT Avril singing THAT well in Freanch despite her last name. She was raised in a small (English) town in Ontario and does not speak French. Could a a native speaker let me know if they think this is Avril singing in French. Hopefully in English or in really short simple French. I'm hoping to improve to the level of a French speaking six year old, in about ten years. . I'm French impaired. Merci.

[JePenseQue1]

There's a very strong accent in that french...

[majide38]

ho putain XDDDD

[zeHoboCop]

That was hilarious!

[edwardcullensgf14]

J'adore Avril Lavinge! Elle est tre bien chante

[betterunknown]

[Itachi476]

J'aime Avril Lavigne!!!!!!!

[LynahLi]

Son accent est marrant x)

[callahansbest]

j'adore avril!!!

[Itachi476]

@callahansbest lol

[firework52]

c'etait genial!! j'adore avril lavigne.

[serpentmuse]

@janie70 she pays no attention to intonation, and her words are slurred, but it's understandable. not the worst chinese i've heard

[Evonnelyne]

Did she ever do the album in french... Cause I want it bad....

[xxblackmagnoliaxx13]

Épique d'échecs. La seule partie qui était français était le Chourus. Eh bien, au moins son chant toujours d'avril. de toute façon, Nice vidéo!!

[zozomad1997]

i like it cool video

[koycu1903]

c'est ça la version française mince quoi ça craint!!! elle chante plus en anglais qu'en français!!! son accent n'est pas trop fort nn plus...

[Mp3puddin]

@koycu1903 Oui je sais!

[yumixjapan]

No, i am japanese and i don't like the version japanese ,

[da1cbiz]

It might not be much for you, but its helping me re-hash my FRANCAIS!

[bloo94301]

japanese is better!

[xBecauseOfU]

Her accent is so cute =) <3

[brokenxinside346]

fail ...

[handinhandtogether]

This version, the original version, and the Japanese version fit perfectly somehow.

[xBecauseOfU]

Haha, j'adore son accent, il est vraiment excellent =D

[dancingstars123]

she looks better with black hair

[EvergreenSelena]

I think she should've just concentrated on one or two languages and sing them perfectly.

I can't really judge any other language. But her chinese and her french is terrible.

[Janie70]

@EvergreenSelena :O i speak french and i actually can understand what she said in french...but for the chinese song, i can't judge at all lol!

[shaunp97]

Betttaa thann thee englishh onee

!!!

[TaraTerrorr]

Keep in mind that she did ALOT of languages and she cant perfect them all.

[emmynserena]

Justin Bieber One Less Lonely Girl in French was way better!

[RuukahRedtail]

I must admit...she kinda fails at French..

[jodelle6]

très mauvais, l'originale étant déjà à chier!

[binminn]

good but it's were more english then french

[FrancisJoa]

really bad french.

I´m from Belgium

[FrancisJoa]

really bad french.

and I´m from Belgium.

[dub09berLiner]

her french sucks soo badly. gawd. i could even do better.

[MsDragonlover13]

aww i was hoping i would learn how to say you know im damn precious and hell yea im a mother fuckin princess ... well actually just da cuss words lol

[jodelle6]

@MsDragonlover13 it can't be translated really, because it would not work. and that all languages have different curse words, but i would say something like: tu sais que je suis précieuse et oh oui je suis une putin de princesse. anyways she sound like a fucking whore in both languages.

[Thecookielove22]

But it wanna sounds really weird if she was saying "Hey Hey Toi Toi"

[mikumikuhatsunelover]

Why does she have so many different versions?

[happyface011000]

@mikumikuhatsunelover

well in an interview she said she did that 'cause sooo many people from different countries learned her song and so she learned their language...or something like that

[MyPunkish]

Looooooooooool =P

Me Like ! =P

[BlondePrincess002]

I speak French and I found it hard to understand it :) I love the Spanish one though ^-^

[sephir298]

This video perpetuates discrimination against gingers. Disgusting.

(Ps. Her accent's very strange - is that typical for Canadian French?)

[Chapstick0414]

@sephir298 She's not actually French Canadian, just Canadian. Her accent in french makes it super obvious that she doesnt speak the language. We do sound different from France French, but it doesnt sound at ALL like this.

[Thecookielove22]

@Chapstick0414 She has French Canadian descent from her father :)

[WolfOfRage333]

@Thecookielove22 No! Her father's french, from Fance... He moved in Canada with his family... Now, Avril Lavigne doesn't speak french. Why?

[shinychexmix]

weird accent...

[Camelia178]

domage qu'il n'y et pas tout la chanson en (French Version)

[Camelia178]

Bien dit Avril Lavigne pour moi c la même chose

[TheFun4u123]

has anybody here seen the spanish version?

[animeloverrr44]

just be cause she's Canadian doesn't mean she knows french. jeez stereotypical much not everyone who is Canadian and from Canada speaks French some of them speak English. haha. anyways i still love her she's amazing to me :)

[bestmanjokes]

this is so sick ever sinse this song ive learnt French Spanish Japanese Italian and german

[xxXXKamiruSamaXXxx]

Her accent is so cute - why just the chorus in french ?

Jadore cette version mais quand même je préfère celle en japonais ... c'est plus exotique =)

[Jaaaide]

She couldn't exactly, sing it all french! considering she done this song in like 8 lanuages!! damn give her some credit for actually doing this sing in different lanuages ffs.

[lovedisney83]

xD l'accent j'aime trop le clip !

[JoelMonteiro]

Isn't she Canadian? Her french should be a lot better...

[kingpolaris]

@JoelMonteiro yeah cause every canadian is supposed to be fluent in french.. -_-

[StRaWbErRy6471]

i dont care if the french is only in the chours im french and this vid is frickin awsome!!! ;p

[lilblackmamba]

Argh, her accent is painful. :(

[houdify]

jdr avrill lavign c ma star preferer

[StevieJJhall1997]

avril lavigne is canidian, she should speak french very well

[Wicked2903]

nice!

[FreedomSoarsTheSky]

Her Japanese and English were okay (obviously) but being Canadian, I'm disappointed in her French. She could've done much better. :(

Son Japonais et son Anglais était pas mal mais être de nationalité Canadienne, Avril du améliorer dans son Français. Elle m'a déçu. :(

[lovatofan4life]

oui..i agree

[sa6o9025]

je like ce song :D

[Sasha97233]

Elle chante bien en français :o

J'adore (L)

[Chapstick0414]

@Sasha97233 sérieusement? son accent est forrrrrttttt, probablement pire parler...c'est bien essayer de toute façons...

[Dogie178]

Avril Lavigne chante vraiment bon dans toutes les langues!

[nuregami1]

@Dogie178 c'est pas vrai, she doesn't, sa prononciation dans le japonais, chinois et allemand est tres terrible

[MegaBieberGirls]

im learnin french :P

[aymm]

@MegaBieberGirls

[CRClark1138]

bon pour vous -- moi aussi.

[leeniFEATmelli]

J'adore!!! :D

[claratabales15]

[AliceInWonderland161]

Coldandplay*** wii wii

[gerald1255]

je laime bien ses ma chanson préfére

[doublep1986]

No, no ones know that she from Montreal because she is from Napanee... a small town in Ontario between Ottawa and Toronto!

[avril74757]

Does anybody know that she's from Montreal ?

[123ID4ME]

I heard that people from canada can understand French

so,some guys here says she sounds good,can she really speak French?

[musicismyheaven]

no she can't =P, and not everyone from canada can speak french. lol. =P

[Ozzel1122]

Some parts are in french.

[CRClark1138]

non merde, Monsieur Sherlock.

[Mutant519]

Cool!

[NokumiChan]

Elle est bien mieux en Anglais, de plus son accent français n'est pas terrible ... :s

[MsKittyKat7]

in my opinion she actually sounds really good

[RTFF8]

@MsKittyKat7 i know right are you french?

[MsKittyKat7]

i wana learn french so bad. not cuz of this song but just bcuz i like french and the way it sounds

[zeik494]

here quick lesson. Je n'aime pas ta copine is translated into " I do not like your girlfriend " Je serai ta copine, the verb in there is etre. The stem is Ser which is future tense so this means. I will be your girlfriend.

[66Titan66]

its really not that hard mate, go for it

[melissaandmelesa]

@MsKittyKat7 be warned it gets harder as you go but once u get the grammer and verbs and conjegating the verbs im told it gets easier

[EmmiJ82]

@MsKittyKat7 I used to live in france and speak french lol

[commandplay]

son accent français est terrible

[loganF137]

wel its actually funny because elle est canadienne and was raised speaking french

[EmmiJ82]

@commandplay C'est pas grave elle chante bien ;) I really like her :P

[Roxstar018]

j'approuve

Nikkidaniandzaccshow comme personne n'est dans le français!

[twilightgirlsx2]

so much for a french version... the only french is in the chorus

[Punkrockgirly94]

@twilightgirlsx2 but the chorus is good, isn't it? ;)

[Nikkidaniandzaccshow]

cette chanson est presque comepletly en anglais!

[X3AnimeH2O]

[tietie200]

[X3AnimeH2O]

[nessy4me]

[X3AnimeH2O]

[EmmiJ82]

@nessy4me Yeah I used to live in france and speak french it was really hard learning it xD Are you French?

[aswolf]

I've never realized before how conceited this song is

[hawthorneheights1121]

not much french only in chorus...

[misscookymonster1426]

gd she did it in french her dads french i wondered where lavigne came from FRANCE!!!!

[aBigHelloKittyFan]

avril means April on Japanese I don't think that her name is French... just saying....

[theSGSboy]

you obviously dont know french. avril is french for april. she is a french canadien...so thats thats

[aBigHelloKittyFan]

look it up!!

[misscookymonster1426]

no i ment lavigne!!!

[X3AnimeH2O]

avril is not april in japanese... who the hell told u that... her father is a french canadian descent and he named her after the month april...

[madisohn]

@aBigHelloKittyFan

"Avril Lavigne" is a French name.

"Avril" means "april"

"Lavigne" means "devine"

[X3AnimeH2O]

she's canadian...

[marcjapon]

son français n'est pas très bien mais  on se compend

[aurelish1]

ahahahah... nice...

i think she does a pretty good french version of it, and hey, atleast she's trying. x)

[missNCISxxxZiva]

no, i really like this video, it's great!

[KimSanzo]

French is the badest language? Haha. Try working on English first.

[myriambourb]

She's not a french canadian. But that's not what matters. Nor does her accent matter. What REALLY matters is that she did this. That she tried. And that means a LOT.

[farang82]

isn't "Lavigne" a french name?

[Nin9Official]

@farang82 Canadian name, this is why it sounds "french"

[farang82]

i'm talking about where it originated from...

[LutinBleuAzur06]

pfff!! LAVIGNE is a french name.

Moreover the canadian race doesn't exist, the Canada population is from a big parth of French decents, english descents + other nationalities.

there is many persons which have LAVIGNE for family name in France. Finaly, Avril's father was born in France, so I don't know why you said that lavigne is a "canadian" name.

[farang82]

How can you say shes not French-Canadian?

Her mum was born in Canada and her Dad was born in France. She is exactly "French-Canadian".

She probably has both passports to prove it, unlike most "French"-Canadians

[Samboras4star]

I do not debating that she is French-Canadian but she speaks damn awful French

[chouquette1420]

éh berline machin ! ceux qui parlent français t'emmerdent !!!! Nous au moins on es pas des fades qui se casse pas le cul pour savoir parler votre language est limité.... --' allé dégage tu fais pitié là...

[Berlinertorte]

WIe schwul ist das denn -.- wie kann man das lied so ruinieren.

Französisch ist die beschissenste Sprache der welt.

French is the badest language in the world .F*** off.

Francais est le plus merde langue dans le monde!!!!!!!

[maouwxgirl]

Heu, ouais okay, listen, if you don't like our language, that's cool, but don't insult us OKAY ?! Even if you find it sucks, i don't freaking care, you don't have to say that ...

[felex94322]

Bien!

[clearbear111]

i have a better french accent then her and im only in francias un(french 1). Elle est mauvais!

[Nin9Official]

@clearbear111 mauvaise*

[clearbear111]

stfu nin9official no one asked u

[MangoMates007]

Im taking french too...

Bonjour! Je m'appelle Chloe. J'ai 15 ans. J'habite a Bristol. J'adore Francais!

[schnegge96]

bad french..shes from CANADA????????

[MsKittyKat7]

i actually know a bit of french

her french accent sucks..i see no effort

[katandlaci]

i think it sounds cool

=)

[AndreaRoberts]

I like that she's tried to be international with her music, but I wish she would have put more effort into the accent.

[Xxtiamo4everxX]

but maybe shes from toronto or something cause we only speak french in quebec and montreal

[lecoolnest]

c meme pas au complet en francais de 1 et de 2 elle parle fr avec un accent anglais...ce qui est normal

[Bieneex3]

her french is bad xD

i do not unterstand anything oO

[Seashu]

xD I agree. I was like, "Damnn, I thought she was from Canada."

[Jargon777]

For being a the child of French Canadians her French is pretty bad. I have no idea what she is saying and I think my French is good. Gratz to the person who actually figured out what she says, but if I were her parents I would've put her in French school for this lol.

[Jargon777]

PS: the Japanese version sounds the best ^_^.

[vvggaall]

She grew up in Canada the speak a diffrent dialect of French then in France.

[LutinBleuAzur06]

No the french Canadian is the same than in France. Only some words and expressions are different.

there is the same differents between English from UK and the English American. But the truth is that Avril speaks french very bad

[naniie85]

She's not french canadian but english canadian, so she doesn't speack French usually. I'm French and I like her accent, it's funny, she's not so sucks in french but it's just my opinion

[cmoialexcui]

its the typical english canadian accent when they speak french:P

[LutinBleuAzur06]

Youre definitely wrong Avril is a French Canadian. Avril is a French name and Lavigne is a French family name. Moreover, her mother is a franco-ontarian and her father was born is France Ok her first language is English but she stays a French Canadian.

With a french father shes not be able to speak in french and her accent is terrible please dont try another time.

I think you dont know what is the definition of a French Canadian

[LutinBleuAzur06]

In Canada there are about 10 millions of French Canadians. 8 Millions have got French like their mother tongue and 2 millions English.

Conclusion: Avril is a French Canadian even she speaks english. And her french is bad!!

[naniie85]

Sorry mais je connais la definition merci, et elle n'est pas née au quebec (canada français) donc même si ses origines sont française elle n'est pas canadienne française et mes "cousins" qui ont posté ici sont d'accord avec moi donc revois ta définition ou peut-être ton français (c'est pour ça que tu n'as pas pu comprendre leurs coms). LutinBleuAzur06 avec ce pseudo j'ose pourtant espérer que tu le puisses sinon c'est que tu es vraiment bidon

[LutinBleuAzur06]

Naniie85, ta réponse violente à mon égard confirme ce que je pensais sur toi. Tu ne connais absolument pas la définition dun « canadien français ». Ne me fait pas passer pour un ignorant car ce rôle là te va trop bien et la réalité me donne raison.

De 1, les canadiens-français vivent partout au Canada et pas seulement au Québec, la plus grosse communauté (Hors Québec) se situe en Ontario suivi du Nouveau-Brunswick. Avril est par ailleurs née à Belleville (Ontario).

[LutinBleuAzur06]

De 2, tous les canadiens-français ne sont pas francophones à cause de lassimilation dans des milieux majoritairement anglophones, des transferts linguistiques et des mariages exogames.

De 3, les anglo-canadiens par chauvinisme revendiquent Avril comme une des leurs. Mais Avril Lavigne se revendique elle-même en temps que canadienne-française. Va lire un peu ses biographies.

[LutinBleuAzur06]

Après quelle soit perçue comme une fausse canadienne-française, je te laccorde, mais les faits sont là

Pour finir,désolé mais la touche "apostrophe" ne marche pas sur mon clavier mais avant de faire des remarques aux autres, corrige ton français

Finalement, cesse de prendre des raccourcis pour te justifier, ça na plus de sens.

[loganF137]

ok all you people are dissing her!!!!! you try singing in another language its hard as crap

[justbecool10]

lawlz i take french but i had NO idea what thi meant lol shes like ja tana na pufnee XD

[MsFatiiz]

it's not 100% french but I like it =)

[tawaiquos]

quelle horreure

[AcidBeast]

Worst thing that ever happened to the french language.

[LadyGaga5000fan]

nooo its cool >.>

[greendeidara]

why.... shes anmerican and had to ding her songs in like 9 languages can you speak perfect french!?....to me she did a fine job

[akFortySevn]

no but like... even pronouncing "serai" is so easy, she's saying it like "sera".

[lecoolnest]

shes canadian,go check out with wikipedia

[greendeidara]

i know i for get about that :)

[PiXIepuNK24]

it dont matter yall if your from canda and if you cant speak french. heck im and was born in germany and idk a singel word in german and my mom is the full german. so idk whats the big deal?

[Seashu]

You never learned your language? :( You're missing out on a alot but if you don't care, okay...>.>

[ptoui]

Actually, Avril's mother was Franco-Ontarian...

I tought the prononciation would have been better

Sad...

[virgoheart22]

"Je n'aime pas ta copine , je serai ta copine , ...

je sais que tu m'aimes bien , ce n'est pas un secret ..."

C'est tout skelle dit ! c'est ça la version française ? nuull

[johnoliver74]

her French pronounciation is horrible !!!

Mon Dieu !!! JO
