Bonus points to Nichkhun. Thanks Khunnie, for saving our boy from himself.

[semisomniac]

LMAO kyuhyun

[Anthropology]

Oh, Kyuhyun! 

 

I wonder if Nichkhun knows some French or if he just watch the movie.

[Ddeona Oneul Bame]

LMAO KYUHYUN, LOL!! 

[Timingil]

This exact happened to me when I went on an exchange trip to Geneva...

 

I didn't misinterpreted the line like kyu did -- I just had no clue as to what it did mean. I recited it to this dude like 'ha! I know French too' thinking I was so cool.

 

Turns out I'm not cool at all, just a massive fuck-up ;-;

[yeye kim]

what show is this?? O.O

[sickwithsin]

what show is this?? O.O

 

Mamma Mia

 

[Syndethia]

I think it's been said a bunch of times but I'm pretty sure he said something (with a pretty ?? inducing accent) like "voulez vous boire un verre [du vin] avec moi" Directly translated is would you like to drink a glass with me, with the context of the wine glass being held as the glass [of wine].

 

Unless it's an euphanism in which case I have made some errors in French class that should not be brought up. (The only saving grace would be clearly the other party would have no idea either o3o)

not sure if i heard it ones before, but its ultra funny.. 

Thats y its important to know the exact trans, when u learn a language. In some language, like Chinese, its important even how to pronounce right. 

 

This remind me as Kyu made ones the one international "sex/u wanna sex" gesture with hand on RS w/o knowing what he even showed there. Its sad i couldnt find the gif with short research and that i didnt saved it. Maybe someone have it.. 

[Mister Dove]

i'm pretty sure this is not an accurate translation. iirc correectly Kyuhyun was right but nichkhun confused what he said to "voulez vous coucher avec moi"

[Sweet Talk]

i'm pretty sure this is not an accurate translation. iirc correectly Kyuhyun was right but nichkhun confused what he said to "voulez vous coucher avec moi"

I think so. I also remember he was asking about drinking wine. Because that has been literally the only French line he knows. Prob aside from je t'aime. Or merci. Lol

[Teru]

Mamma Mia was such a fun show, I need to rewatch some of it

 

i'm pretty sure this is not an accurate translation. iirc correectly Kyuhyun was right but nichkhun confused what he said to "voulez vous coucher avec moi"

 

yeah I remember thinking "but that's not what he said..." too

 

thanks lifelong French education even though I barely understand or speak it lol

[tsukuyomi67]

 To be honest...I don't know French so I'm kinda confused by the comments here and with what I saw the last time I watched Mamma Mia on Youtube cause yeah, some said Kyu is right while others said Nichkhun is right.

what gesture did he make?? o_o

coucher is to sleep (in that way) and to drink would be "bu" "boisson" or more appropriately "verre" would be said.

 

I think kyuhyun was just confused in general. he's lolz tho

[Seulchu]

lmao

i speak french. Kyuhyun said would you a drink a wine glass with me (in broken french) and Nichkhun thought he said "would you like to sleep with me"

 

this translation is not accurate

[lovely_me]

what gesture did he make?? o_o

 

 

I can't explain gesture well and I am outside and on phone. But its when u make a  fist w left hand and hit on t side where yr thumb is w the open flat right hand. 

I rlly can't explain. It was years ego. But I can remember me laughing abt and my tlist on twitter asking why he don't know what this gesture means. I can remember some having rlly fun w it back than. Its well known sign here of "do u want sex/to fuck/bang" . the ppl was from all countries commenting on it, so this gesture is not only known in my country.

aaaaah I see. thanks

 

nichkhun was just confused then

 

(broken French is my enemy lol. I spent long enough learning the textbook version hahahahaha)

[Galaxy.]

Haha he's so clueless... (I'm here for the French lessons Kyu if you need them lmao)

Uhm, not really. Bu is past of boire and needs an auxiliary: J'ai bu du vin.

Boisson is drink but in "a drink": Le vin est la boisson favorite de Kyu.

 

And I think he said verre. Granted, it sounds more parseltongue to me but hey...nobody's perfect.

 

Nichkhun probably heard the "voulez-vous" and took it from there. It's a widely known phrase after all if you go by male tourists in Paris.  But it literally only means "would you like to" or "do you want" and is completely neutral.

ah well I speak French creole as a first language so our grammar and usage of the words is slightly different

 

thanks for clearing that up tho

[5th_wall]

Oh, then I am sorry for phrasing it that way. I didn't mean to say your language is wrong or anything. 

[SJLover]

Kyuhyun said "vous voulez boire un verre du vin avec moi?" which learn "would you drink a cup of wine with me ?" He learned during ss4 in Paris he said it back than more clear than this . Nichkhun didn't hear it well XD

Poor poor kyu kkk

[springfragrance]

I know Nickhun mistook it, but he made Kyuhyun sound like a pervert.
