No! I meant "appearance-conscious". In French it's the same word! We say that to want not to tell his age is a "coquetterie"

That's OK. I went to my online translator and tried to translate "coquettish" and it came up with nothing. So with my little knowledge of French I dropped the "ish" and added an "e" to make it a word that looked more French. When I translated it, it came back as "flirt". It made sense to me. Anyway, my wife tells me I am a big flirt. hee hee hee. \:\) "...Who? Me?..." LOL

That's what's known in English as a "false friend". You use a foreign word that looks similar to one in your own language, but discover it means something totally different.

For example, in Spanish, if you want to say "I'm embarrassed" and use "estoy embarazada" you'd be saying "I'm pregnant"!

Ahhh... I called myself a little girl, huh? LOLOL.... That was the hardest part of French and Spanish for me to learn was the masculine and feminine parts of speech.

Does this mean I have to run around in a little pink dress with sandals with the cute little buckle on the side?


Whoa... Now that is disturbing. \:\) and no, that's not my face but one most would be familliar with. LOLOL
