![]() ![]() There’s even one that uses Paris Hilton and Nicole Richie’s “Sanasa” song from The Simple Life at the end because it kind of sounds like “ sans cent sent sang.” The viral video even sparked 152 other TikTok users to create videos using the same “ sans cent sent sang” translation, including some kids who shared reaction videos of their French parents watching the original video like this one and this one, which the parents found pretty funny. ![]() Memeluv’s most famous video got over 9.5 million views and translates the slightly creepy “without a hundred smells of blood” into “ sans cent sent sang,” which, again, makes a sentence where every word sounds the same. ![]() ![]() In one of my favorites, user translates “your” to ton, “tuna” to thon, “uncle” to tonton, and “mows” to tond, to eventually create the sentence, “ ton tonton tond ton thon,” or “Your uncle mows your tuna,” which, in French, ends up being the same sound repeated six times. All of the French words end up sounding the same, and are then used to create a sentence that sounds like complete nonsense. In these memes, the TikTok creator goes back and forth translating words from English to French on Google Translate. Each of those words is a different form of parler, which means “to talk,” and every single one is pronounced the exact same.Ĭontext clues are all you have to go off when you’re trying to differentiate between “to talk,” “you all talk,” “he/she was talking,” “you were talking,” “he/she talked,” and “they were talking.” Think that sounds pretty crazy? If yes, I’m sure a few TikTok users would agree with you because recently TikTok discovered the insanity of French pronunciation when a few users created these Google Translate memes that went viral. But, anyone who speaks French knows that that completely normal assumption is wrong. Anyone who speaks English would mostly likely think all of these French words are pronounced differently from each other. ![]()
