What a difference accents make
Sometimes, American sites that drop accented characters from French words lead to amusing results. AMG All Music Guide transforms Uzeb's "Baiser Salé" into "Baiser Sale". A "salted kiss" thus becomes fuck dirty! (grammaticaly it should be "baiser salement", but "sale" invokes sex quicker than kisses.)
