Foreign speakers 1.2 Slang: consistency & style 1.3 Translating 'Fuck' 1.3.1 Examples 2 Glossary 3 Verlan 4 Common Chat Abbreviations profanity [edit] Notes on how to use slang [edit] Foreign speakers It profanity is important to note that, as a foreigner, your use of slang will often be received as cute or funny, depending greatly upon your overall fluency in spoken French. To understand profanity this, think on how it would sound to you if a foreigner-- with a strong accent and odd rythym of speech-- came up to you and said "Dude, what a sketchy-ass hater that bizz-natch was, I totally was just like 'fuck off o-sheezy'". Therefore, no matter how much slang you use in your native language, limiting your use of slang in French (proportionally to your level of fluency) will also limit how much you are patronized and giggled at by native listeners. [edit] Slang: consistency & style To use slang effeciently, it is important to maintain a consistency of style.
