phoque

The origin of the phrase "Pardon my French" because of its odd sounding pronounciation. Phoque-prounced Fhawk, means seal in French. The pronounciation sounds like a similar word used by today's kids and therefore when asking for forgiveness after a bad word is said, the statement "Pardon my French" can be used to alleviate the tension.

Man: "Phoque you"
Girl "How dare you?"
Man: "Ooops, pardon my French. I meant seal."
