sweet jeebus! im gonna hve a lot of fun with this! 😀😀😀😀

tries translating: AKKA MONGA MISSISAKI MONGOGOGOGOGOGOGOGOGOKAKA

 

[Ionizer86]

No prob, Bootymac. I use Altavista Babelfish all the time (shhh, don't tell my French teacher 🙂

 

[RSI]

P&egrave;re No&euml;l vous souhette (sp?) un joyeu no&euml;l

Roughly...

-RSI

 

[frankqfrank]

dont know if you care, but the french call him pere noel

 

[bootymac]

<< Monsieur >>



wait a sec! WHO ARE YOU CALLING A MAN!? :|


oh yeah, me😎

 

I luv French and would like to learn it so I can be fluent in it some day!

Please don't give a thought to that useless Babelfish! It is so bad in interpretation.

Santa is usually known as "father Christmas" too. So, it makes sense what RSI and Franqfrank have, 'cuz father in french is "p&egrave;re" and Christmas is "no&euml;l", if I'm not mistaken.

So, I would say go with RSI's quote. 🙂

 

[Ionizer86]

I second that. RSI's translation is the best. I normally only use Babelfish to translate one word at a time.

 

[Sugadaddy]

Le P&egrave;re No&euml;l vous souhaite un joyeux No&euml;l.



My first language is french... 🙂

 

"'Dit merci Monsieur'

wait a sec! WHO ARE YOU CALLING A MAN!?"

Bootymac, to the best of my knowledge "monsieur" does not mean "man" in French. It means "sir". If you want to say man in French, it is "homme". So he's referring to you with respect as "sir", I suppose". And "merci" is "thanks". So I suppose that phrase means "known as thank you sir". 😀

Edit: Sugadaddy, it looks like you plagiarised! :| You copied that from babel Fish but gave no credit! :| Compare it: "Le p&egrave;re no&euml;l vous souhaite un Joyeux No&euml;l." Hehehe! I'm messing with ya! 😀
