Anti-French sentiment

Anti-French sentiment means having a negative opinion or prejudice against people from France. This often comes from misunderstandings caused by differences between French and other cultures, as well as stereotypes and false stories that people believe. French people sometimes also get blamed for things they didn't do because of anger or frustration over other issues. People who express anti-French sentiment might say or do offensive things, or try to exclude them in various ways.
