Isn't it funny how some phrases just seem right in a particular language?

Asked by marinelife (62485points) November 21st, 2011

I found myself using “n’est ce pas” in a Fluther answer today. It would just not have been the same rendered in English. It would not have had the certain je ne sais quoi.

Deus ex machina comes to mind whenever I feel schadenfreude.

Are there any foreign phrases that pepper your language or writing? Even ad nauseum?
