| 2. | parlez-vous | ||
|
An inverted French phrase which means 'Do you speak'. Usually followed by 'Anglais' & used by anglophone Canadians & Americans who are too ignorant to even attempt to learn the French language before coming to a place that mostly French-speaking. If you say 'Non', they try to speak English to you anyway, as if the more slowly & loudly they speak it, the better you will comprehend it. Stupid woman: "Parlez-Vous Anglais?"
Me, not wanting to deal with her: "Non, madame." Stupid woman: "Are you sure?" |
