That has always amused me, together with the way France really tries very hard to limit the use of English words - despite their prominent use in so many places in France and on every French high street.

Yes, that's because the Frogs hoped to have their language as the world's 'lingua franca'!
They failed, of course, primarily it has to be said because the Americans speak English - of a sort!
