We are basically speaking French and just pretending it's English.

​I just realized how many "English" words are just French in a trench coat. Dinner, table, marriage, grand, certain, simple—they're all French. We even just copied basically sentences. Je ne sais quoi, c'est la vie, déjà vue—still French.

​I tried making a sentence with every words I know: "Pardon, quoi? Damsel, je sais that vous love clichés et marriage, but c’est just bizarre."

​Isn't it fascinating? We can make a sentence in French and it will be considered as English, but where is the limit? Can we write a 100% English sentence that a French person would understand perfectly without knowing English? Give me your best "French-English" sentences!
