Question

Franz thinks, “Will they make them sing in German, even the pigeons’ What could this mean? <br> (There could be more than one answer.)
Easy

Solution

This comment of Franz shows a Frenchman’s typical reaction to the imposition of learning German, the language of the conquerors. Being deprived of the learning of the mother tongue would mean cutting off all bonds with the motherland. Teaching the pigeons to sing in German indicates how far the Germans would go in their attempts at linguistic chauvinism.
