Why do you assume (s)he's Canadian?

by Anonymous 13 years ago

I knew that, and I'm an American who speaks no French. (Except 'hello' and possibly 'Maryellen, I am very tired.')

Not Canadian or in French, but I already knew it was Respondez s'il-vous plaït.

I actually Googled to double check my work, and it's actually: Répondez s'il vous plaît.

I just knew it was french, but not the exact words.

I think you're ignorant for saying "Not aimed at Canadians..." you're implying a stereotype that all Canadians know French when in fact we don't. Canada is no different than America.. RSVP is common and I'm sure you could think of an acronym for it to remember.

@437667 (Anonymous): @437663 (aRreaza): Actually she was saying not aimed at Canadians when she was probably meaning people from Quebec, because there the majority of the population speaks French.

I always thought it was Reservez instead of Repondez, as in Reserve.

by Anonymous 13 years ago

I've heard it means both. As in reserve your seat or respond if you're going to show up.

I had no idea what it meant until this post. Lol

i know what it means, but i rarely ever think about it...saying "RSVP" has its own significance....its almost always about an event...where as the phrase Repondez sil-vous plait can be used in several different contexts in French.
