Is it just that the lady being recirded is trying to give a clever answer “poisson” because it’s already under water and maybe because it rhymes with boisson, but then the cameraman is just giving a straightforward answer (a zebu)?
Sorry about all the Instagram videos, it’s about all I get my French content right now. I can stop if it bothers Lemmy users , or at least try to transcribe it instead.
Transcription
Woman 1: Quel animal n’a jamais soif?
Woman 2: Le poisson. [unintelligible for me, perhaps: C’est pas?]
Woman 1: Le zébu.
Zébu sounds like J’ai bu with a lisp. (Not really a lisp. Z sound instead of J sound.) “Quand j’ai bu, j’ai plus soif.” (As in Je n’ai plus soif, not I’m more thirsty) / Quand zébu, zébu soif.
Great 3rd grade joke.Merci!
Being only a learner, I can’t get that much from it, either.
What is the problem with Instagram videos, anyway? I see three downvotes so far, but what are they objecting to, exactly…?
Haha, I dunno. It’s either people have an issue with Instagram or with French.
