    tu es une crotte de chien, perhaps? And no, I wouldn't recommend trotting that out as your only conversational French

          Crotte de chien is "dog turd", literally

            Mom ordered a filet of fish and the wrapper, which was bilingual, identified the sandwich as "filet de poisson."

            Heh. When I took French, I always told myself that "poisson" meant fish, because I think of fish as poison.

            There is a publisher of phrase books called "Me No Speak" -my new favorite name
            I got one at work yesterday, it's just a little 2"x3" book, perfect for your pocket.
            I am so totally going to get some in the languages I want to teach myself!!!!!!

              The only thing I learned from French class:

              Carnard means Duck

              Fromage is cheese

              And if you visit France, paris is overrated. The coastal areas are nicer to visit.

                Flacon du Maize!

                Chapaeu

                Tete

                Port

                Yes, that one year of French in elementary has helped me quite a bit in life.

                The number of times I've needed to tell people that I'm wearing Corn Flakes as a hat on my head to get through the door is innumerable!
