Anyone speak French reasonably well?

[RAMd®d]

Would you like to sleep with me tonight

Um, where does that line form, exactly??

[RAMd®d]

My mother always told me "You don't have to speak a foreign language to impress a girl with your French".

The girl next door "translated" that for me. I've been a cunning linguist ever since.

Bonjour, mounsieur. Ça va?

Ça va bien, merci. Et toi?

Comme çi, comme ça.

Surely you have heard either the LaBelle or the Moulin Rouge version of this song. The next to the last line is the one referenced.

Hey sista, go sista, soul sista, go sista
Hey sista, go sista, soul sista, go sista

He met Marmalade down in old New Orleans,
Struttin' her stuff on the street.
She said, 'ey 'ello, hey Joe, you wanna give it a go? mm, mm?

CHORUS
Guiche Cuiche ya ya da da, Guiche Guiche ya ya here.
Mocha chocalata ya ya, Creole Lady Marmalade.
Voulez vous coucher avec moi, ce soir.
Voulez vous coucher avec moi.

Yes, rG, I got all the references-- the Beatles, Patti (and later the Mouln Rouge ensemble, and even Brother John.

Ou est la fenetre? J'ai faime.
Where is the window? I'm hungry.

4 years of high school French. Passed the Regents exam. And THIS is what i remember. LOL Oh well...

[rgG]

Oh, Rammie, I just realized I misread your original post, sorry. I have a horrible cold and laryngitis, so I'm not hitting on all cylinders tonight. I read "where is that line FROM" rather than "where does that line FORM". Boy that was a big error on my part now wasn't it.

And yet she can still dance without answering.

rG, you're GOOOOD!
