Does anyone realize "Sacrebleu" means Damn in french???

[Bakuda]

But he never really says sacrebleu...he says sacre-bleu cheese

[RedMenace]

I could've sworn I heard him mutter "Ta geule" under his breath, once.

What does that mean?? My French isnt that good

[RedMenace]

Essentially, it means "F you." But I think it may be context specific. I dunno.

[Uncle Ben]

Probably is

[Teirusu]

But he never really says sacrebleu...he says sacre-bleu cheese

Anyway those are word you should never translate. The o la-la or the sacre-bleu are personaly of that character, if you translate it to a perfect own lenguage, you are losing personality of the character.

[Uncle Ben]

true. but if Ant' say Sacrebleu- cheese... in a way he is saying damn cheese???

[Teirusu]

When I try to translate sentences which contains sacre-bleu chesse, I try to give the enfasis of "Oh my god", where you can use "Oh my god" I use sacre-bleu, is a word that he use when he is surprised or something get worse than it is

[Uncle Ben]

Yea i know. Damn is one of Sacrebleu's translations. i think there is like 3 in total one i think is oh my god but the main one is damn

I will use this post for write all the errors I found, I had bad memory and I will forget them, so I will edit this post when I found errors:

(The three run out just in time, as Dulcy slides into the hut, demolishing it.)

Correction: Is not really a correction, Is just some people write the voices "of the crowd" and other no. I want write it instead of write nothing, so I just said if you want add it later.

[Bakuda]

thanks for noting the erriors teirusu....I appreciate it!

[Teirusu]

I need your help guys. I'm having problem with one sentence

This sentence occurs when Antoine complain about heavier snow and was because the "binoculars" were full of snow in the spot where you see, so Sonic said: Check this out and later Antoine said this sentence:


Antoine: I am finding the fried egg up on my face! Hahaha!
Sonic: You mean egg on your face, Ant.
Antoine: *gasp* I do? Where?

I really don't know this sentence, ls not weird on english, and have some sense but on Spanish is really weird and completely unsense. You can't literaly translate it. I also I can't found any reference about it.

I tried to translate as

Antoine: even now I can see an ant upon my head
Sonic: They fall into your face
Antoine: *gasp* I do? Where?

I know is not the same as before, but is one of the few ways to evade this "joke". I mean...Antoine vain evading the true. Sonic sarcasm and the next fit well...but... If someone know more about this sentence I want to hear it so I can think if I can accurate more with another words.

[RedMenace]

Lol! I think I like your revision better!

Anyway, the first line is Antoine attempting to say "I have egg on my face, again." The expression "being caught with egg on your face" means "looking like a fool." But he mixes it up with his broken English. Sonic then corrects him, and Antoine interprets it literally. (Sorry if my explanation sounds condescending. That's not my intention.)

[Teirusu]

Ah I see. I must think harder...Is like I expected but I think we don't have the combination of "look like a fool" + "something material" + "face"...If you think about it, is a bit hard, also must be an expresion because Sonic correct him...I will try think on it while try to sleep...If not I will keep like that

Thanks Red

[RedMenace]

No problem. I can see how translating this could be especially tricky.

[MoKat]

I could've sworn I heard him mutter "Ta geule" under his breath, once.

Nani? Do ya recall in which episode?

but if Ant' say Sacrebleu- cheese... in a way he is saying damn cheese???

Not necessarily...the expression seems to be a fusion of "sacre bleu" and "blue cheese". I figured it was a censor-dodging method.
Coulda sworn Ant got away with an uncensored "sacre bleu" in a Season 1 episode, but I don't recall which episode.

{edit: Ant got away with it in "Harmonic Sonic"; I found that line in my transcript of that episode. It was right after Sonic sabotaged the Sky Spy & it started falling toward Mobius.}

[Uncle Ben]

Thats clever

[RedMenace]

I could've sworn I heard him mutter "Ta geule" under his breath, once.

Nani? Do ya recall in which episode?

Haha! I was only joking. Sorry.

[Uncle Ben]

though it does sound like he did it once
