Not at all, I'm Welsh and unlike most English people I have learnt a bit of French (not enough though) and I find that French people react more favourably towards foreigners if they make at least an attempt to communicate in the local language.
Malheureusement, je ne parle pas bien le français, j'ai oublié beaucoup.Je suis gallois et je crois les français sont très aimable.

I am french, I am to shy to be arrogant, but I noticed when we go to Paris with my husband and we speak in English people are rude to us they only start to relax if I speak French but I can tell that they get annoyed when my husband don't make any effort to speak french or understand it.

Parisians tend to be rude and arrogant to anyone who doesn't speak French the way they do. Further North, if you speak a little French, they treat you as a guest. Further South, if you speak a little French, they treat you as family.

No not at all. I think when I have been there I have seen and heard some foreigners to France behave attrociously to the French (mostly because they do not speak or understand French so they become aggressive and speak loudly) so obviously as anyone would the French react and show their disapproval. Can u blame them?
