ok, its a french joke... in english (for the most part).
a guy walks into a resturant. He orders up a good glass of wine. The waiter gives him the wine. A fly flies in the resturant, and lands on his glass. He calls the waiter, and says "Moinsur (sp...), il y a un mouche sur mon verre" The waiter looks down and says "UNE Mouche" the man looks at him "Vous avez des bonne yeux" (You have good eyes) If you dont speak french, then i can try to explain it to you _______________ When you become an actor, you become the person, and you dont act anymore.

True, that happened with the German jokes as well. Every noun has a "gender" that didn't translate into English. But some of them just didn't make sense bcuz they contained some kind of German saying that didn't mean anything in English. _______________ Midbie Council Member #2 - Profile ID 2073 | Member of B@rtM@ulS@ar | Owner of Monty's 2000th comment & D@RtHM@UL's 8100th comment | Former Padawan of SilkMonkey & Arcuss JA Goaltender & NHL Fan | Fellow Rush fan to Axion|Plo Koon is my oldest JA friend Post your RL pics HERE! | Post you JK2/JK3 screenies HERE! |

there are somethings in other languages you can do, without doing it in one language... that makes no sence. My joke, doesnt work in english, because the article (The, a An) they dont distinguish between male and female. Thats why it doesnt work in english.

My parents used to tell me jokes in German, but whenever I tried telling them to my friends in English, they kinda lost something and I just felt like a jerk. Oh, well. They should learn German dammit!!! _______________ Midbie Council Member #2 - Profile ID 2073 | Member of B@rtM@ulS@ar | Owner of Monty's 2000th comment & D@RtHM@UL's 8100th comment | Former Padawan of SilkMonkey & Arcuss JA Goaltender & NHL Fan | Fellow Rush fan to Axion|Plo Koon is my oldest JA friend Post your RL pics HERE! | Post you JK2/JK3 screenies HERE! |

Yeah that can be kind of funny. It might also work in German. I know they they use masculine and feminine nouns. And "The"'s are dependent on the gender of the noun. (16 ways to say the word The.) I don't remember how it applies to "A or An" though. _______________ When you are going through Hell, keep going. -Sir Winston Churchill.

Bubu is right... the joke sucks in english, and is ok to a frenchman (quebequer! (sp)) ok, one line at a time... a guy walks into a resturant. (i hope you know this) He orders up a good glass of wine. (most popular drink) The waiter gives him the wine. (simple...) A fly flies in the resturant, and lands on his glass. (you get the point) He calls the waiter, and says "Moinsur (sp...), il y a un mouche sur mon verre" (ok, here is the main part. Moinseur = mister, there is a fly on my glass) The waiter looks down and says "UNE Mouche" (a fly (feminin) the man looks at him "Vous avez des bonne yeux" (You have good eyes) Ok, here is the joke to all you non french speaking people. When the fly landed on the guys glass he called the waiter. he said there is a fly (in the masculin form of the word) on my glass. the waiter looks down and says a fly (stressed the feminin use). The guy says to the waiter "you have good eyes", suggesting he could see if the fly was male or female. The waiter saw the fly, and was correcting his grammer, because the word for fly (mouche) is feminin, so he used the wrong article to indicate that (he used the male article UN, instead of the female article UNE) Does that help? _______________ When you become an actor, you become the person, and you dont act anymore.

You'll have to explain it because I don't speak french, and it doesn't seem that funny. Which isn't surprising since the French consider Jerry Lewis to be a comic genius. _______________ When you are going through Hell, keep going. -Sir Winston Churchill.
