Stereotypes








At the moment we are talking about stereotypes in class , we’ve been through different clichés about the Europeans .
Here is what we think the Scottish are like ;-) .


Of course, this is not to be taken seriously because we've seen that stereotypes are oversimplified opinions !




- les écossais sont sympas/The Scottish are nice ( starts rather well, doesn’t it ?)

- ils portent des kilts / they wear kilts
- ils jouent de la cornemuse/they play the bagpipes
- ils sont bons en rugby et en sport / They are good at rugby and at sport in general
-ils ressemblent tous à Sean Connery/They all look like Sean Connery
- Ils ont peur du Monstre du Loch Ness/ They are afraid of the loch Ness Monster
- Ils adorent les moutons/ they are sheep – lovers
- Ils adorent le whisky ! / they just love whisky !
- Ils sont grippe-sous / They are greedy /stingy
- Certains ne sont pas beaux / Some of them are not handsome ….

Alors vous pensez que c’est vrai ? !!! Répondez nous et dites nous ce que pensez des français..
So, is that true? !! Tell us !




And tell us what you think the French are like….

French people drink wine every day, smell of garlic, love bread and croissents, passionate about their country. And Scottish people don't look like Sean Connery (i don't even know who he is :L) and we arn't scared of the Loch Ness Monster :D
