    The German isn't any better, forbreading access! :laugh: :laugh: Seems to be a popular sign though: https://www.facebook.com/100001709701674/posts/714982661902051[^] Not that even they understood it: "een uitzicht waar je sprakeloos van wordt....." An 'out look' indeed. For the Dutch speakers, Access is more like what, weg? or voorgang perhaps?

    Access is 'toegang' in Dutch.

      Yeah, that rings a bell. 'Toegang bezookers' is a sign I used to see a lot. :)

              In July, I was on vacation in France, and I came across a board that said "Accès interdit" (Access forbidden) because it was close to a cliff that was collapsing. What was this translated to? To "Speechless access"[^]... :doh:

              I don't want to talk to you no more, you empty-headed animal food trough wiper! I fart in your general direction! Your mother was a hamster and your father smelt of elderberries!

              I think words like 'destiny' are a way of trying to find order where none exists. - Christian Graus Entropy isn't what it used to.

                Nope. Accents on upcase letters are accepted and encouraged by both the Académie Française[^] and the Office de la langue Française du Québec[^]. These is an exception for acronyms.

                I'd rather be phishing!

                  Nope. The academie Francaise also encourages the use of 'stationment' instead of 'parking' to no avail too. :)

                        If you access, you may be left speechless. That's what they're saying. :)

                        There are only 10 types of people in the world, those who understand binary and those who don't.

                        They're saying nothing, I suggest how they gone to such a bullshit the wrong orthograph of "Voix"(voice) instead "Voie"(way) gives : "sans voie d'accés" (no way access, dead-end way) that becomes: "sans voix d'accés" (speechless or voiceless access) do you see the idiocy? ("vois"-tu l'imbécilité) "voie, voix, vois" (track, voice, see) three different meaning with exactly the same pronunciation Unfortunately, this confirms the decay of French language by phonetically writing!
