Does Catherine speak french?

Because she isn't french.

 

She speaks both Italian and French.

 

She speaks italian and french in game.

 

Are you implying that only French people can speak French?

 

LOL, that's cultural appropriation to a new level.

 

Exactly, humans are pokemon. I've been saying it for years.

 

French was the lingua franca of Europe for much of the 17th and 18th centuries. A little after Catherine di Medici's time, but still, Italian nobility would have almost certainly spoken French fluently even in the 16th century because of French involvement in Italy.

 

She speaks French, though with an Italian accent that is incredibly grating

 

I found it hilarious. And also funny how when she got pissed at me her Italian came out!
