LINGUISTIC LOO LAHS
Overalls, frying pans and other sexual toys! I am sure that many of you have made dreadful linguistic errors/mistakes..."faux pas" etc. But one thing I have noticed is that when we make them from english into french they are almost always instant XXXX sexual innuendo. This is really a chance for all you to share some of your faux pas in the comment section underneath. But let me let you in on a couple of mine first... At our wedding a few weeks ago not only did the MC but also my new husband feel the need to have a public airing of my linguistic and cultural misdemeanors. My husbands' favourite (and he wasn't even there when it happend) took place years and years ago when my now 15 year old son was about 6 months. I had gone into Bordeaux to seek Osh Kosh evolving overalls ( salopette in french..).These were great...an overall which was not only cute but "grew" with the child for about a year. Value +! Into Galleries Lafayettes childrens' section...
