I know it was a tongue in the cheek comment, but if you want to attack the "French", try to at least do it correctly.
It is "magnifique".

Quelle horreur, my mother will be mortified.

It's interesting how the entire shape of Australian English was set by the early settlers -- you can still distinct dialects of Strine spoken in different parts of the country. Or the way that the vowel-lotto that New Zealanders play with "Unglush" has a lot to do with the heavy settlement of NZ by Scots.
I guess eventually we'll all speak the same English. It'll give the French something even bigger to hate. Manifique.
