| French say “non” to filthy English gaming jargon Take your nasty roast-beef eating language from our sight French officials have taken time from their busy schedule of bringing racial harmony and economic well being to France to tackling the curse of English video game jargon. The French are determined to stop their language evolving by taking on English words and have come up with a range of alternatives which all decent French people will use instead. While some of these are logical like “pro-gamer” becomes “joueur professionnel” – others are like trying to swallow a bagget sidewise such as “streamer” which becomes “joueur-animateur en direct”. https://fudzilla.com/news/54940-fren...-gaming-jargon |
