0 Guest Posted December 21, 2008 Report Share Posted December 21, 2008 Enjoy ma petits! ARGHHHH! Please don't use a language you obviously can't speak. <_< "Mes" petits. Masculine plural. "Ma" is singular feminine, and therefore doesn't agree with the gender and number of "petits", which is a male plural, as I already mentioned.

Please read this before posting, especially number 5# (that also includes people that are speaking English but decide to post a phrase on some other language)!

0 Guest Posted December 21, 2008 Report Share Posted December 21, 2008 The answer is Thomas. The numbers relate to engine numbers in Thomas Thje Tank Engine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm surprised you don't know that since you've been here for a while. I'm sorry, you're right. It was late last night and it struck me wrong. Where I come from, it is a huge insult, so I lost my cool. I apologize. I don't think I'll be back. Good luck all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Guest Posted December 24, 2008 Report Share Posted December 24, 2008 Thanks for the grammar lesson, what was mean to be a lighthearted ending to a post was incredibly inappropriate given my lack of a grasp of French and I apologise. Next time I'll try harder. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
