[seriously83500]

Je suis français et je peux te dire que tu as un bon accent français :D

[tanglewoood]

Rémy, I learned more from your series of videos than I did in all my self-guided study. You truly understand how to teach French to an English speaker. Thank you for sharing your multi-lingual and multi-media talents with all of us. A bientot!

[Tapajara]

La Galette des Rois looks like filo pastry.

Merci beaucoup pour l'information. Ma prof de francais n'a rien dire cette tradition. C'est tres interessante. (I hope all of that is correct.) And I hope you make more videos but thank you for your contribution and your helpfulness. Tu es un bon professeur.

[UmaYara]

[learnfrenchvideos]

OMG - I was living France many years ago and la galette des rois had not crossed my mind for many years! I remember I never won la fève! I'm glad you won it in your video ;-)

[jremy7]

@learnfrenchvideos

Dare I say it... I cheated.

Thanks David for you comment :-)

P.S.

The rest of you can check out David's French learning videos (learnfrenchvideos)

[zhenran]

Hi Remy, I am a french beginner,, just found out your videos a couple of hours ago and watched them all over. Thank you very much for making them. I learned a lot from you. When are you planning to make more videos? and another question out of curiosity: how many languages do you speak? --best wishes.

[jremy7]

@galipou1

Merci de vos corrections et de votre support :-)

[Ultraguyification]

Post more video ur teaching good

[celestea777]

This is a neat set of videos... I am ready for more!

[satinecool]

Hi, Remy ! thank u for all ur videos, they are amazing. I learned a lot from them. By the way, we have the same tradition of L'Epiphanie in Armenia on January 6. That's when baby Jesus believed to be born. That's an Armenian Christmas. But it's a little bit different. Instead of la feve we put a coin. And if u r lucky to get one it means that coming year will bring you much of success.Thanks again and pls put more videos. I have finished all 17 lessons and can't wait for la lecon dix-huit. Merci

[funkstage]

Yeah! Loved this video. This same tradition is practised in Mexico each 6th of January every year ... mais la galette est trop différent :D as it is circular as the one you've shown us but in the middle centre it has nothing just as if it were like a wheel.

Send u greetings from Mexico!

[EJNelxxx]

U just made this vide0 t0 sh0w off ur fancy pie!! :) haha

Thanx f0r y0ur videos it really helps ma with my studies!! :)

[xOybg]

J'aime bien l'idée que tu fait découvrir la France aux anglophones (ou autres), Continue tu aides de nombreuses personnes.

[TaishaConfessionals]

where are you... i need you to come back please lol

[Drummergenetic]

This was amazing! Can't wait for new videos, I hope soon!!!

[glasgowband]

Ah! This must be the precursor to what we have in New Orleans and South Louisiana around Epiphany called King Cake (Gateaux des Rois). I love that we share this tradition! Bonjour de Nouvelle Orleans!

[LittleTerror848]

lol i would not be happy if i bit into that lol, goes to show how different our culture is :)

[popmuzik35]

merci de faire découvrir cette tradition !

je confirme elle avait l'air apétissante !

[lynzee777]

Remy please make some more vids! You are so much fun!

[surrected4526]

"La galette des Rois" est une envoûtante tradition. Merci!

[AphroditeEros33]

Yummy! I would like to have one piece of the pie*^-^* la feve is cute*^-^* Interesting custom...Merci beaucoup for your appétissant french lesson*^-^* ...and I'm sorry that France lost against Mexico tonight.

[zeppelin0127]

[jremy7]

@zeppelin0127

[SuperMrLambert]

[howimboe]

Content de voir que certains se donnent du mal pour partager notre culture. Merci ;)

[Pommejaune78]

J'aurais pas du regarder cette vidéo, maintenant j'ai trop envie d'en manger... *Bave* :)

[adecoste1]

I just posted my very first video ever on You-Tube as a response to this video...hope it worked!! I was nervous...lol. I never had the inclination to post one until now...

Thanks for everything, Remy! :)

~Ali

[latinwinter]

So I imagine that this is where we got our "king cake" tradition from in New Orleans... very cool! (though for us I wish that finding the baby didn't just mean that you buy the next cake :/ )

[CDmagz]

Bonjour Remy

How are you?

Hope you are fine and enjoying this wonderful Monday

Hugs and love from the Global Family

We are sending you a pm now x

[geordi13]

Bravo Rémy ! Cette galette avait l'air très bonne. Merci pour la vidéo !

[jremy7]

You're welcome Mr. La Forge :)

[nabi0220]

c'est bien bravo

[punkyj131]

J'adore la galette de rois! I took french classes when I was very young and this was always my favorite lesson!

Thanks for sharing!

[huskierider]

Thank you very much for your lessons. You are a wonderful ambassador for the french language. I was just recently in Paris for 3 days, and while I cannot speak French well, I was able to hear and read it enough that I got by. Paris is so beautiful and the art and architecture is like heaven on earth. Same for the food!

[ragarox]

Remy thank you so much! You really have helped us. My grades are going higher after watching your videos. Merci beaucoup! Even though I can write or speak French that well, I am able to understand almost all sentences... except the ones that use really tough ones of course... but I am sure I will get there soon. Thanks a lot!

[jremy7]

Music to my ears :)

[CDmagz]

Great video!!

I am going to do a presentation about la galette des Rois for my French exam. If you have any more tips about La Galette des Rois please let me know

Cheers

Georgina

[lenal1l]

Thanks, always a pleasure to watch you. Hope all is well.

[saaggo]

[crznvines]

[Lesbionairre]

Merci Remy!

Je suis contente que vous êtes encore la, et aussi contente que vous avez beaucoup de choses à faire, pas juste youtube! Parfois, je trove que votre videos est un peu lente, mais vous êtes adorable quandmême!

Merci Remy!

[alfiean990]

looks yummy , yum yum:)

[lscdmg]

Oh you made a new video!! I just found out!! Great job!

[317721ymcd]

Salut Remy! Merci beaucoup pour le video. I miss your lessons. I would really appreciate a lesson on how to use demonstrative pronouns or demonstrative adjectives - ce, ces, cet, cette, celle, celui celui-ci, celle-là etc. Je trouve ça très difficle. Another great help would be a lesson on how to use the pronouns y or en. Thank you.

[jremy7]

That's more "advanced" French I'm afraid... We're not quite there yet :)

[loganplace1]

Very nice video Jeremy. How long since your last video! please make at least 2 video a months and keep to help us learning French.

[SteveLiu1987]

Merci,M Remy pour sa introduction sous La Galette.

i climb outta the Great Fire Wall of China,just trying not to miss your lessons subscribed on my YouTube.

Regards

[jremy7]

Google owns YouTube and is not too happy with the Great Firewall of China :)

[elegy998]

Yay ! Remy ! It's cute how you took that breath before cutting into the galette --- a delicate operation. : )

[scatha09]

That pie looks delicious i hope i could get to taste one. =^.^=

[killzonekizza]

what does le feve mean?

[jremy7]

Une fève is actually a bean.

Originally a bean used to be placed in la galette. Later collectible porcelain pieces were substituted.

[jaideef7]

Salut remy! Hey, when are the other lessons coming??? Thanks for the video

[onemanband1963]

If I became king, I'd prob break

with tradition, deem the others to

be peasants, swiftly exile them to

some god-forsaken place pre-empting

any thoughts of...guillotine and

then just frolic the palace in my

funny hat.

[aykayteeR]

like a king cake! cheers and happy mardi gras from new orleans, remy!

[JRios270]

C'est très intéressant et amusant. Un jour, je voudrais aller au france et faire ça.

[eviljulot]

@JRios270 juste pour te dire qu'on dit: "en France" et pas "au France"! l'erreur n'est pas dramatique, on comprend quand même le sens de la phrase!

[MissusFingerBottom]

Salut Remy! What's the difference between Tout and Tous e.g Bonjour à tout/tous?

[jremy7]

toutes = ladies

tous = gentlemen

[MissusFingerBottom]

merci! Maintenant, je sais...

[abelitro12]

Muy similar a la costumbre de la Rosca de Reyes en países de habla española, aunque se dice que más bien viene de la llamada GATEAU DES ROIS del sur de Francia.. Buena información, gracias Remy.

[alesbica]

Can a king choose another king, or a queen another queen?

[jremy7]

If you live in a progressive kingdom :)

[metalmusi]

Salut, remy nous t´avons etonne

[jeffrx]

Thanks Remy! I enjoy your videos and am working on learning French.

[GeorgSimmel88]
