KATHERINE
“Le foot” et “de count.” Ô Seigneur Dieu! Ils sont mots de son mauvais, corruptible, gros, et impudique, et non pour les
dames d'honneur d'user. Je ne voudrais prononcer ces mots
devant les seigneurs de France pour tout le monde. Foh! “
Le
foot” et “le count”! Néanmoins, je réciterai une autre fois
ma leçon ensemble: “d' hand, de fingre, de nails, d' arme,
d'elbow, de nick, de sin, de foot, le count.”
|
KATHERINE
“De foot” and “de count”! Oh, Lord, those are vulgar words—wicked, ugly, immodest, not fitting for respectable girls to speak. I would not utter those words in the presence of the lords of France for all the world. Ugh! “Le foot” and “le count”! Nevertheless, I will recite my lesson one more time all together: “de hand, de fangres, de nails, de arm, de elbow, de nick, de sin, de foot, de coun.”
|

ALICE
Excellent, madame!
|
ALICE
That is excellent, madame!
|
|
|
KATHERINE
C'est assez pour une fois: Allons-nous à d”ner.
|
KATHERINE
That’s enough for one lesson. Let’s go to lunch.
