Fun fact: I'm actually reading on Jaspree and I just learned he is called the Green Father, which translate in French as "Père Vert", which is prononced exactly like "pervert"

Have a nice weekend.

Yes and it's the same way we pronounce "pervert".

Hi

We French call Jaspree "Jaspree"

We have problems with a few passion names which seams ridiculous in French.

For example :
Floranuus = Fleur Anus = "Flower anus"
Lochos = "Low cost"

Playfully

Reminds me of this one:

We have a temporary employment agency in my home town, the DIS corporation.

Their slogan was:”DIS, more than just temporary labor”

(“DIS, mehr als nur Zeitarbeit” in german.)
Of all things I lost, sanity I held dearest.
