List of French phrases used by English speakers[edit]

Nomination Widthdrawn Nomination - highly useful list. --bdud e Talk 03:27, 12 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Object:

There's no telling how incomplete of a list that might be
Might need to be moved to wikidictionary instead
Over half of the words don't link to an article
Could be tabled
No references--SeizureDog 05:43, 12 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Strongly object - not only is this list is almost certainly incomplete, it includes a raft of words that are unquestionably part of the English language (sabotage, anyone?). I like the fact that the list exists, and I think it's a good page to have, but this requires a LOT of work before it's ready for featured status. I'm also not entirely convinced that some of the literal translations are the best they could be, although this is something of which a native French speaker would have a better idea.
