00:00As a person who is trying to learn French, I feel like I'm missing something.
00:05The code switching.
00:06Those who know me know that when I speak English, I have 1000 accents.
00:11I have my American accent, after you have the AAVE.
00:17If I want to sign something, I can remove my Nigerian accent.
00:22After you have the British accent, the Caribbean accent.
00:27They are not precise, but it gives a variety.
00:33But in French, I only have my French accent.
00:37I feel like I can't express myself plainly because I lack options.
00:48I think I need to learn more about other accents in French.
00:53And it's not even to be mocked of whoever you are.
00:57It's not that.
00:58It's just that I want to express myself.
01:00I want to express myself all the sides of myself.
01:04For example, the Quebec accent seems quite interesting.
01:07After, it will need an African accent.
01:10I don't know which accent.
01:11Again, it's not to be mocked of anyone.
01:14It's just that I need to express myself the African side of myself.
01:19I don't know if you've captured it.
01:21But in short, it's something that I often think about.
01:25I don't know if someone of you also thinks about it.
01:27But yes, I think that we need to learn the code switching.
01:31We're not alone.
01:32So yes, it's the thought of the day.
01:33It's the thought of the direction.
