When the French Speak English (16+)

When Charles de Gaulle decided to retire from public life, the British ambassador and his wife threw a gala dinner party in his honor.

 

At the dinner table, the Ambassador's wife who did not speak French was talking with Madame de Gaulle:
"Your husband has been such a prominent public figure, such a presence on the French and international scene for so many years!

A huge hush fell over the table. Everyone heard her answer...... and no one knew what to say next.
