Is it because the French eat frogs?
>>543652006the fleur-de-lis (symbol of France) looks like a frog. then they started eating frogs because of famine during the revolution. this is also coincidentally the basis for Canada's flag but with a maple leaf.

>>543652130the fuck are you on? the country is named after a French tribe, the Franks
>>543652006Paris(Lutetia) used to be a swamp, so there were probably a lot of frogs near the city back then, and I guess people started calling residents frogs too, and when foreigners came they picked up the lingo and started calling all frenchmen frogs
>>543652602spain is named after hispania, which is what romans used to refer to the iberian peninsula
brits named us this way because a lot of peasants lived in swamps during the 100 years warsame with us calling them "godons" at that time because the anglo shamelessly sweared "goddam" all the time

>>543652316'French r' is known as 'guttural r'. it's a latin language where they did used to roll the r as intended, but by the 1600s they started the guttural r. this sound is also a feature of germanic languages (where it is also the r) and arabic (where it is a gh). most likely they forgot how to do the r and didn't pass it on in youth, either because they were immigrants or at sea trading and settling at these places. Americans can't roll their r's at all because if you don't learn it in youth it's very hard, like the French. in Italian it's considered a speech defect. the French turned it into its own thing but it does have a frog-like quality to it, like they are trying to fit in where they don't belong even in their own country.
>>543652006Its common to nickname people after food they eat, eg the frogs call us roast beefs.
>>543652602>french tribe>is germanicanon...
>>543653135Salian franks who invaded Gaul weren't even genetically germans. They were belgian gauls.They were however of germanic culture that influenced the french language. As much as latin and gaulish.

>>543652951https://colingorrie.com/articles/guttural-r/this site says the guttural r in germanic countries originated from French speakers, either Huguenot refugees or Belgians. the point of origin was Paris but they have no idea where it came from. I mean, arabic also has this sound but let's not go there, they just forgot how to do it.
