Doesn't it just pay to actually know what is being said even after the countless times people make fun of your for learning french
ERROR: And while reading i found a error in cat tail when grape says "cat lover" shouldn't that be "Chat adore" or something very close to that effect

Only when all the capital will be in the font, otherwise you run the risk of having a few problems. ;)

It's volunteer; this English form can be taken in French. :)

Thank you for finally letting me know how "Heho" is spelled....

What is its exact translation?

"Heho" is the contracted form of the "hé" (="hey") and "ho" interjections.
It's pronounced like "heyho" but the "h" is silent in French.

I knew how it was pronounced, thanks to the French language audios on my DVDs. ;) I just never knew how it was spelled.

So it's just a combination of "hey" and "ho"? "Hey-ho"? "Heigh-ho"? "Hi-ho"? "Hiya"?

(Somebody slap me.... :oops: )

Anyway, thanks for the info! :D

lovely work
What I hate of my language, in such occasion, is that 'Ti amo' (I love you) is intended for mates/lovers, not best friends thus i couldn't use it. *sigh*

Thank you! :D
It is also somewhat ambiguous in French, but there are no place enough and I hope that the context is clear enough. The worst thing is that in French, the "just friends" episode could be interpreted on the wrong way! :oops:
For this translation, the hardest part was to choose the words and their location to clarify the situation. I hope I have succeeded. :|

"mushy" => "fleur bleue" ("blue flower") or "eau de rose" ("rose water").
"stuff"=> "trucs" or "choses"
==> "trucs à l'eau de rose", "trucs fleur bleue", etc. ;)

turkish delight is made with rose water and tastes delicious (okay I am a research addict when it comes to trivia like this so I looked it up; it doesn't have to be made with rose water, it just usually is because why not)

whenever i think of rose water i think of it

Update. By the way, "shamp-agne" is untranslatable in French because it's a pun with an English word and an French word.

Re: French translation: Peanut Teaches Comics

Update.

Like Valerio:
1) I don't have a drawing tool
2) I really suck with a mouse :?

So if somebody want to modify the strip to inclue the translations (for me and Valerio) in the 3 panels, that's could be nice, plz.

And now I translate the Rick's comments .
