As a French, the fact that no white flag was mentioned in these comments like it would have inevitably on reddit shows the quality of the chaps in here.
France has shown themself to be made of much sterner stuff in the last couple decades then the stereotypes and jokes like to make out. I mean that's not going to stop the English from making fun of France, but they still have nobility like this was 1650 or something.
The English were assroped by the French Normans that they had to rename many common foodstuffs.
Rename or simply discover what food actually is?
That it seems is yet to come.
And then by French Angevins, which was later but left an even bigger impact on the language. So twice.
