Chapeau

In the land of the frogs, 'chapeau' translates to 'hat.' To say 'Chapeau!' is to metaphorically take one's hat off to one's peer(s).

'Chapeau!' can have meanings as varied as 'Hello!'; 'Yes'; and 'Well done!' Either way, it must only be used in the presence of those in whom you hold high esteem; in other words, only in the presence of true scholars and not that of the so-called 'yobs.'
STUDENT: '... and that it why the Weimar Republic collapsed.'

TEACHER: 'Chapeau! What a thesis!'

FRIEND 1: 'Salutations Mr. X! How are you today?'

FRIEND 2: 'Ah, yes, what a pleasure it is to encounter you again. *COUGHS* Chapeau!'
