00:23 surely his French which has not always been perfect.
00:26 Emmanuel Macron was looking forward to this moment with great impatience.
00:29 It must be said that the event was due to take place six months ago, a visit reported
00:36 due to the climate of tension that was then reigning in France.
00:41 But this time, so is it good.
00:45 This Wednesday, September 20, King Charles III and his wife Camilla will make their
00:50 arrival in France, at Orly airport where they will be welcomed by the President and his
00:54 wife.
00:55 A three-day stay during which the Sovereign of England should eat well
01:05 and speak French.
01:06 If he speaks it fluently, it has not always been the case.
01:09 Studying French during his school career, as his mother Queen Elizabeth II had done
01:18 before him, Charles has not always been a diligent and applied student in his work
01:22 and his lessons.
01:23 We learn in particular in the pages of the Figaro that he obtained a modest C level
01:31 in the French tests of the British Baccalaureate.
01:33 Almost bilingual now, so is he finally during his studies in Cambridge that he perfected
01:42 his accent and vocabulary to reach the rather excellent level he has today.
01:48 It must be said that as soon as he has the opportunity now, the father of the princes
01:53 William and Harry speaks in the language of Molière.
01:57 No doubt that during his three-day stay in France, he will address his interlocutors,
02:04 during the feast dinner at the castle of Versailles for example, in their language and none in
02:08 English.
02:09 What is ignored, however, is that Estycile has learned a few words from her wife Camilla,
02:17 whose program with the First Lady Brigitte Macron has charged him as well.
02:20 A legacy of his mother Elizabeth II was a lover of France.
02:28 As soon as she could, the Queen of England learned the language of Molière thanks to
02:34 a Belgian aristocrat, encouraged by her own mother, Elisabeth Bowe-Slion, a French speaker.
02:41 Charles does not have the same limpidity of expression as his mother recalls the daily,
02:48 but he manages rather very well and intends to put this talent to good use in the cordial
02:52 relationship that has united England and France for years.
02:55 A nice way, too, to pay tribute to his missing mother.
