A French View of Twin Oaks

One thought on “A French View of Twin Oaks

  1. Adorable! Genial! I’m bilingual and I loved this. One reason was to hear the transcultural explanation of something so uniquely US into a French context, understanding and mindset. The translation is excellent, with just one funny glitch near the end of minute #3 because of the “jeu de mots” in French on the word “tache,” which can mean both “task” and “stain” or “spot.” The Twin Oaks task managers are definitely not micromanaging spots and stains but tasks. Gicquel is a great, enthusiastic, articulate guide and I just signed up for her YouTube channel.
