- the making of a Canadian product label bilingualist
Now if it only cleaned my teeth
You have to know that the immortels at L'Académie française were rightfurieux around the mid-70's when "email" entered the English vernacular. French had employed the word for centuries. Problem is, it apparently means "enamel", so they are stuck with courrier (électronique). By my reckoning, not only does my toothpaste freshen my breath but it protects me from those deceiving Nigerian fraudsters!
