I didn’t have streaming services when I grew up. I leaned from TV (in my country everything has subtitles, nothing is dubbed) and downloading movies at 20kb/s with Kazaa that didn’t have subtitles. I had English, French and German in school for 13 years. I don’t speak a word of French and German. The only French I know is “omelette du fromage” thanks to Dexter’s laboratory, while I have French family. But since they are too proudly French that they refuse to speak English, that I will put zero effort into learning any French.
Omelette du fromage is actually wrong, it does mean “cheese omelet” but it’s not how you say it. You say “omelette au fromage.” (Funny: the Wikipedia article has a chapter containing an analysis of the various viewpoints on what to drink alongside a cheese omelet.)
I actually know that, as it has been pointed out before, but in Dexter it’s “du” and I love to annoy chauvinistic Frenchies. So I’m sticking with that haha 😈
