When I was but a tiny tot, my father had a book called "Fractured
French" which was full of interlingual puns.  A few of them I still
remember.  Unfortunately, my keyboard doesn't have all the necessary
accent marks, but here are a two of them:

	French			English Translation

	Coup de grace		Mow the lawn
	S'il vous plait		Not sterling
