What is the pronunciation of French

The pronunciation of "French" depends on whether you're talking about the language or the people:

French (the language):

* English: "FRENCH" (with a long "E" sound)

* French: "frɑ̃.sɛ" (pronounced like "frahn-say")

French (the people):

* English: "FRENCH" (same as the language)

* French: "frɑ̃.sɛ" (same as the language)

Important to note: The French "r" sound is often a guttural sound, which is difficult for many English speakers to replicate. It's a good idea to listen to native speakers to get a better understanding of the pronunciation.
