Favorite "foreign" language phrase?

[*Ally*]

zut alors! (darn it!)

mon petit chou (my little cabbage)

ciao bella

 

[Jack In The Box]

love the Spanish exposed here

mine could be:

realmente dudo que entiendan lo que estoy diciendo, así que puedo decir cualquier cosa, incluso insultarlos y ustedes no se darán cuenta

 

[Thora]

Many French phrases, including

J'taime
Je ne sais pas
Je ne said quois
Voulez vous couchez avec moi ce soir?
Zut alors!

And then just because I'm weird:

Ostorozhno! Dveri zakryvayutsya. This is Russian for Caution! The doors are closing.

There's a word my guy often says -- it's Arab, if I remember it well, and it's "Zuby" -- something like a dirty way to say "it's a pity"

* Sometimes I use english words to replace bad words . like:

- Deja de ser tan "bitch" - o que "man" tan "bitch"
- Préstame el "fucking" lápiz

and there's a phrase from a song of Manu Chao that I like a lot

"je ne t'aime plus, mon amoir"

 

[Ava79]

Ich bin müde
Ich verstehe nicht

...and I use these both a lot at school. Not on the German lessons, though.

 

[AchtungBono]

Several Yiddish words have dug their way into everyday conversations (especially in Hollywood....lol)

Nu? = well
Tsuris = trouble
Mensch = man (meaning someone who is a decent human being)
Nosh = snack

[RedRocksU2]

Cabron!

 

[dazzlingamy]

Alles Klar!

I say that all the time...

as well as
manaadja cattetorie. Which means in made up to sound like italian language. hahaha

 

[lady luck]

^ I get the first word, but the second ????

 

[dazzlingamy]

hahah sorry, its a made up word that we say in an italian accent when we get annoyed at something. It comes from my boyfriends aunt who is italian and speaks very fast and she dropped a big bowl of spaghetti all over the floor and said in a high pitched and fast voice 'manaja catchitory!' or something to that effect and everyone laughed, so now its something we say a lot. Sorry for the confusion!

 

[timothius]

Gaan kak, jou Pommie doos!

Maybe I shouldn't translate. We're such a rude bunch, us Boers.

Fusset!
Vol Kak,
