Sensibly. Above all, TRY TO SPEAK FRENCH. When I ran a B&B Inn in France, I always told people that if the French are rude to you, it serves you right. Imagine someone going into a shop in New York and shouting at the assistants in French! Could they expect politeness? French people like foreigners to try to speak French. After all, it's our country, they say, so speak our language. IF you make the effort, and get into difficulties, they'll help. The French can be the most helpful people in the world. People in our area of Normandy would turn up with lost Americans they had convoyed to us for miles, just because the tourists tried to speak French and ask the way, but had trouble understanding the answer.

What did France and british act to the embargo act?

In response to the Embargo Act of 1807, which aimed to restrict trade with Britain and France, both countries took measures to circumvent its effects. France, under Napoleon, intensified its blockade against British goods while also seizing American ships that were caught trading with Britain. Britain, in turn, implemented its own restrictions and continued impressment of American sailors, leading to heightened tensions.
