More on French Love and Dating.

'French amour', you've heard the term no doubt. But how do you pronounce this French word for love? It is actually "l'amour". But where does the idea of French as the language of love come from? Why are French things 'ooh la la'?

The idea originates in England. Whereas the harsher sounding (to the English ear) German became a language denoting efficiency and practicality in its sound, French with its softer latin-based sounds became the language of romance.

Perhaps there was some confusion in the mind of the British public over the term 'romance languages' -- meaning originating from Rome, i.e. the Roman Empire and so being Latin-based. Whatever the case, French literature and later film strengthened the stereotype of the French language and culture being associated with love and romance.
