The Dictionary

The Dictionary

I read the English Dictionary in short sections, comment on it, make bad jokes, and sometimes sing little songs. I hope it’s more entertaining than just reading the dictionary alone. It’s an evolving project so the letter ”A” had lower quality, plus less commenting and jokes.

BB Butters reads from french fry to frenulum.

 

 

The "French" in "french fries" might be from France, but it also might be that the potatoes are cut in the french style (in thin strips) which was mentioned in the previous episode.

I read from freezer burn to French dressing.

 

 

The phrase "pardon/excuse my French" came from people literally using french words in their speech, but not swear words. Seems like there's a number of possibilities why it's used for swear words.
