I was going to high school in France when Saw 6 came out.
Everyone was calling it sausage - was pretty funny at the time.
Saw Six / saucisse
I love that for them. That’s hilarious. It’s like when I found out what Pajero means. Every time I see one driving around I call out ‘wankah!’
I told this to some French speaking friends when I first found out a few years ago and they were totally non-plussed. Seems like only native anglophones enjoy this fact.
Then again, in France younger people might use the English word “cool” despite the fact it sounds like the French for ass (“cul”). Probably used to it.
Cool doesn’t sound like cul, it’s sounds like coule
Ah yeah you wouldn’t say the L at the end of ‘cul’, right? Sometimes in English people don’t make the L sound in ‘cool’ if they are trying to be particularly cool.
Ye, it’s pronounced like Q. That’s why toilet paper is often shortened to pt (papier toilette) but also to pq (papier cul)
The real reason why Mistral Le Chat was launched
That Phil Fish? Where’s Fez 2!?
Fez is soooo good!
Pretty sure he said fuck it, took his ball and went home on that one a while ago.
Yeah it’s 15 years past time to expect anything else from him. Just surprised to see his name pop up.

purrrrrrrrrrr
I farted.
Chat, is this fart real?
francophones pronounce “chat” like anglophones: \tʃat\
So it’s just Zoomer-speak (“Chat, I farted”) instead?
The funny part is we decided to pronounce “chat” in perfect english, but the remaining letters will stay french no matter what.
So it’s more like “female cat, I farted”
not really, because chatte doesn’t have the t in front of the ch sound, so it’s \ʃat\ (shat) instead of \tʃat\ (chat)
👆
What part indicates that it means female cat? You can use chatte for that but it also means pussy so probably don’t.
I’m a non native English speaker and I’ve never heard it pronounced like the letters would be pronounced like in my native language. Always like English (with an accent). Do french speakers do that?
They do. Otherwise it would sound like Chat JPT. So they say Chat J’ai Pété
There’s a company that unironically calls itself “Mendix”.
