Oh! one more thing:

"Les chemises de l'Archi-duchesse sont-elle sèches, archi-sèches?"

What does that mean (Qu'est que? ...right? ^_^") I only understood shirts/Chemises...

[ryokenshi]

It's that kind of phrase we use to practice pronouciation.
I don't know if you have that kind of phrases in english?
As you've probably noticed, there are a lot of "ch"-"sh" and "s" sounds
(chemises, sèches, etc.)
If you try to read it as fast as you can, it's abit difficult because of those "s" and "ch" sounds.

I'm not sure I've explained it well? ^^'
(so the meaning is abit weird. XD)

"the shirts of the archduchess are they dry, really dry?"

(there's a kinda play on words at the end XO because "archi-sèches" means something like "really dry" (but it's old french...or it just isn't used! XD), but as you see, the "archi" of that part reffers to the "archi" of "archiduchesse". yay. how useless. XD)

[cafekkodesu]

Ohhh, that's acutally kind of clever XD I noticed all the "ch-" "s-" sounds, so I guessed that it wasn't all coincidence. Yay for lucky guesses! Unfortunately, I couldn't guess what the acutal phrase was other than "chemises" ^_^"

Thanks for the fine explanation! ^_^

XD
We learn that kind of things when we are, like, 5 years old or around that, and it took me lots of years before knowing the meaning XD

welcome~
Now, try to say it! XD
(I'm personnaly failing at pronouncing it well. XD It sounds like "les chemises de l'archiduchesse chont-elle chèches, achi-chèches?". a real fail. XD)
There's also a version with "chaussettes" (socks) instead of "chemises".

[cafekkodesu]

0-o Yeah, I failed at saying that XD I should get my french teacher to say that! That would be hilarious XDDD

[ryokenshi]

XD haha. I was about to tell you to ask your teacher to say that. >_<'
(lots of "to" here o_o)

[cafekkodesu]

I got her to say it today! XD I explained to her why I wrote it, because she thought I was a tad bit strange for doing so ^_^" But she said it all slow, so she said it right >-<. No fun XP

[ryokenshi]

haaaa that's really not fun at all! XO You should've told her to say it as fast as she can!
Anyway.
I can give you other phrases like that. XD There are so much~
