Hmm, just wondering, Patchou, Fraisie and all you other french people, how do you pronounce "Messenger Plus!"?

Do you say it the english way or plus as in the opposite of moins? :P

I'd guess Plus is so universal it'd be Messager Plus!...where the only change is Messenger = Messager....I'm just making a guess though…it could be Messager Avec!

Like the french plus word (yes! plus exists in french :O): it's actually the "y"-sound, but I'm afraid there's no such sound in English...

If you know German there's the Ü vocal, that's it: Plüs

The most similar sound I remember is the U in amuse

Anyway, they possibly pronounce it the English way...

RE: Pronounciation
hehe i prounounce the messenger with the english accent
but the "plus" like...
not: "ploss"... more like: "plüss"
if you speak french, prounounce it that way: russe, luce, autobus, anus...

lol thats really "québécois"
we often say expressions and other things like that:
Messenger (english way) Plus (french way)

I learned french some years ago, not very much but enough for me (Barcelona is 100mi - 160km from France border)

Je peut bien imaginer comme sonne l'anglais avec accent français.

(I can clarly imagine how English sounds with French accent)
