Silly French slang

glynnis:

les-francophile:

daniiiii:

I just found the Hide This French book book.  I don’t remember every buying it, but here it is anyway.  Here are some of the funnier translations.  Is it accurate?

Je lui ai roulé un patin.
I french kissed him.
Literally: I rolled a skate to him.

On a pris notre pied.
We had a good time.
Literally: We took our foot.

Il est  une grande folle.
He is gay.
Literally: He is a big crazy woman.

Il y a du monde au balcon.
She has big boobs.
Literally: The balcony is crowded.

J’adore ça! A mon avis, ça devrait être correct, mais suis pas tout à fait au courant de l’argot français. Ceci me fait penser à un livre que Mary Anne m’a offert il y a 10 ans sur l’argot Cockney rimant. Encore une fois: j’adore!

Last one is my fave.

There’s also a variant to “Je lui ai roulé un patin”/ “I french kissed him”

“Je lui ai roulé une pelle”, literally : I rolled him a shovel.
