I don't get it, he controlled no French speaking territories except for modern Belgium, who are these men he spoke French to? I'm pretty sure most of the people he spoke to was German, Spanish or Italian aristocracy.

Back in those days, french was the "lingua franca" of Europe. Every nobleman, writer, philosopher or tradesman was expected to have some notion of french, the exact same way people of every nationality speaks english on 4chin.

>What did he mean by this?

>Charles V may have said something in this general format, but not with this specific wording. Variants have been quoted for centuries, and the earliest known citation, itself a secondary source dating from 40 years after his death, gives two versions that both differ from the modern one. Girolamo Fabrizi d'Acquapendente's 1601 De Locutione gives: Unde solebat, ut audio, Carolus V Imperator dicere, Germanorum linguam esse militarem: Hispanorum amatoriam: Italorum oratoriam: Gallorum nobilem ("When Emperor Charles V used to say, as I hear, that the language of the Germans was military; that of the Spaniards pertained to love; that of the Italians was oratorical; that of the French was noble").

>Alius vero, qui Germanus erat, retulit, eundem Carolum Quintum dicere aliquando solitum esse; Si loqui cum Deo oporteret, se Hispanice locuturum, quod lingua Hispanorum gravitatem maiestatemque prae se ferat; si cum amicis, Italice, quod Italorum dialectus familiaris sit; si cui blandiendum esset, Gallice, quod illorum lingua nihil blandius; si cui minandum aut asperius loquendum, Germanice, quod tota eorum lingua minax, aspera sit ac vehemens (Indeed another, who was German, related that the same Charles V sometimes used to say: if it was necessary to talk with God, that he would talk in Spanish, which language suggests itself for the graveness and majesty of the Spaniards; if with friends, in Italian, for the dialect of the Italians was one of familiarity; if to caress someone, in French, for no language is tenderer than theirs; if to threaten someone or to speak harshly to them, in German, for their entire language is threatening, rough and vehement").

French was his native language.

Spanish was not his mother tongue

germanic languages are better than Spanish to give orders to animals.

I know Spanish speakers who when training their dogs to obey orders yell "sit" instead of "sientate, or quieto" or something like that.
Harsh sounding monosyllabic words are good to give orders to animals or soldiers.
