How much of a French population smokes cigarettes?
Every time I see a French person, I see a cigarette in their hand. How common is it for French people to smoke cigarettes?

Yes I would have said about 30%, more if you count people who like to smoke cannabis once a while. There are less and less smokers now cause cigarettes are expensive. 30% is still a lot, but it was about 50% some years ago (like in the 70's).

But a lot of young people smoke (50%) at school and then stop when they are older. I used to smoke myself when I was 12. I stopped at 16.

I sometimes have the same feeling than you, cause most of my friends are smokers ( more than 90%).



WITH SUBTITLES If you don't smoke, you won't be cool. A French commercial we made for a project at school.
