The French don't even have a word for entrepreneur
@typesfast Neither elegant nor erudite comment, Ryan. “Entrepreneur” is a French word, as are about 45% of English words. I like the thought that 45% of your verbalized brain activity owes to the French, young man. I’ll leave you with a word we kept for ourself: Inculte! Check it on Google.
@p_ferragu The French don't even have a word for sarcasme

@typesfast Too laissez faire
@typesfast All jokes aside, growing up in France the word “entrepreneur” mostly referred to contractors (as in, construction). Has changed by now.
@typesfast They call going to work “le petit mort” because a Frenchman dies inside if they have to work.
@typesfast Americans are not able to grasp European savoir faire
@typesfast This tweet is unfair. They won’t even see it until they return to their desks sometime between September and October. Pls refrain from any subtle jabs until they’re able to adequately defend themselves, thx

@typesfast Say entrepreneur in a french accent and it sounds more french.
@typesfast i thought it was baguette
@typesfast The amount of people commenting who didn’t get the joke is a bit frightening 😳
@typesfast Gold
@typesfast You know there is a layer of truth to this, strangely enough: if you tell a French person you’re an « entrepreneur » by default they will think you’re a builder 😅
@typesfast just imagine! effing cheese snorters.
@typesfast entrepreneur in french means "between tears." few.
