I've noticed French used in a couple of interesting/odd ways while I've been in Boston but nothing as funny as this.
Last night I even saw a miniature Eiffel Tower decked out with lights in front of a French bistro. I wish that I could have taken a picture but I was the T (metro).
There definitely is the belief among Anglophones that a little bit of French adds a dash of sophistication to almost anything...
A touch of French will always class up your ad, right? Not so much when the tag line translates as "Small dicks, big compliments". Oops!
My immature side is totally cracking up over this. LOL!
ReplyDeleteHi Gwan! I've been a bad blogger friend lately. Work has been crazy!
ReplyDeleteAnyway, just catching up with everyone now.
How great is this ad?!?! I love all of their expressions too! It makes it a little naughty, you know?
LOL!
Is Nancy's an English company?

I'm glad I'm not the only one who found it funny!
ReplyDeleteElla - we've missed you! Get blogging soon!
MK - I'm not sure, I think it's American though. I stole it off an anglophone French friend's facebook...
