French Hip Hop
Franglais (French: [fʁɑ̃ɡlɛ]) or Frenglish (/ˈfrɛŋɡlɪʃ/ FRENG-glish) is a French blend that referred first to the overuse of English words by French speakers[1] and later to diglossia or the macaronic mixture of French (français) and English (anglais).[2] The word Franglais was first attested in French in 1959,[3] but it was popularised by the academic, novelist, and critic René Étiemble in his denunciation of the overuse of English words in French, Parlez-vous franglais? published in 1964.[4] Earlier than the French term was the English label Frenglish, first recorded in 1937.[5] Other colloquial blends for French-influenced English include Franglish (recorded from 1967), Frenchlish (1974), and Fringlish (1982).[6]
