      You won cause you can insult the French in their own language.

      Not as well as the French can insult me for being American. And in perfect English too, most likely.

        Define perfect English. Cause you could always lord over them the fact that they have a shitty government entity that used to gorce them to use what amounts to a government enforced dialect.

        Meanwhile if I wrote phonetically it would be mildly ineligible, just like my dialect.
