QC En Francais (again)
🕑 Added 2017-12-24 09:23:52 +0000 UTC Happy holidays! I'm posting these bonus comics I did for y'all on the main site, so consider this week a recap of some of my favorite things I've done on Patreon this year I guess?????TRANSLATION:
Panel 2
Guy: Uh, do you speak english?
Francelore: Ah- yes? Yes! Yes! How can I help you?
Panel 3
Guy: Can I get a, uh, venti latte?
Francelore: Ah, yes! One moment, please!
Panel 4
Francelore: What is "venti?"
Doralsace-Lorrraine: "Twenty" in Italian. *vapes*
Panel 5
Francelore: Ummm...that's twenty espressos...your total is 25 euros.
Guy: Twenty five bucks?! Forget that, I'm goin' to McDonalds or something!
Panel 6
Francelore: I don't understand Americans.
Doralsace-Lorraine: Americans don't understand coffee. *continues to vape*

According to my (French-born) French Professor, Parisians are worse.
Chris Driggers
Of course she’s reading Camus.
That's technically the correct way to say it, yes, but idiomatically it's customary to omit the "ne". Learning french from a textbook doesn't at all prepare you for communicating with native speakers (but I suppose that's also true of most languages)

Other French speakers correct me, but I think in the the last panel Frenchnalore should be saying Je NE comprends pas les Americains.

Vous respirez la vapeur douce, vous apprenez qui vous êtes en ce moment, non? Vos poumons sont-ils juste là pour gonfler, ou choisissez-vous ce qui entre, quoi qu'il arrive? En courtisant la mort, vivez-vous? Ce n'est pas important. C'est ce que c'est.

Maurice Kessler

Jeph, One life's simple joys, one I view as a true gift to us all, is that you still like doing QC after all these years. Thanks for another great year, with hopes for many more to come!
BobC
"QC En Français (encore)" SVP!

“Doralsace-Lorraine”...I’m dying.

So many people say "naan bread" which would be "bread bread" and that bugs me tooooo >_< Also idk if it's just me but masala chai at Indian restaurants always tastes not just better but like... more concentrated? less watered down? than at Starbucks. Am I imagining that?
Airyu
I'll never get over "Francelore" lmao
Chris Crowther
Starbuck's abuse of other languages is terrible; as a tea drinker my peeve is "chai tea" - that literally just means "tea tea". What they're actually selling is masala chai.

Its true. Americans are terrible.

We get it Doralsace-Lorrraine. You vape.
