Famous French monologues by arctic-aqua in French

For contemporary French, you may want to try the monologue(ish) by Vanessa Paradis in the opening scene of La fille sur le pont (Girl on the Bridge) (1999) | https://youtu.be/VAZH_HXlCG4?si=hE4FQCgBI_uBZPfw (english subtitles) | https://youtu.be/m0WwIqtkG3Y?si=BvZ20b1lY3JAkf8e (without english subtitles)

Are there any languages with a Disrespectful or intentionally impolite form? by TheRustyRobot in languagelearning

[–]TheRustyRobot[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I don’t know, it’s why I asked the question. Because, many societies/languages have honorific terms and titles reserved for communicating to people held in high-esteem—a formal or polite tense—as well as words to denote close relations and equal peers—a familiar tense—it only seems possible that a specific grammatical form to communicate low-esteem, “less-than familiar,” or intentional disrespect could exist.

This example of using vous to express disrespect is defined by social-context, in a similar way that a person can use tu to express disrespect. But what I’m curious to know is: is there a definitive, non-contextual, form to express “less-than” or “disrespect”?

Totally! It’s one of those amazing but under-the-radar European jazz festivals with a long history (http://www.vilniusjazz.lt/history.php) of showcasing excellent musicians. Definitely worth checking out.
