French kiss in France?

Question

I have a friend in France and he and I are a bit involved. The other day in an e-mail after the x's and o's at the end he said "french kiss". So I was wondering if french kiss means the same thing in France as it does in Canada?

Answer 1

It probably does haha

:P

Answer 2

I don't think so...but I'm not sure.  I read in a book somewhere that in france they call it the english kiss.

Answer 3

No he probably meant "kisses from France". The French don't know that "French kiss" has the meaning it has in the English-speaking world. I have seen a lot of French girls write " French kisses" to perfect strangers on English-speaking online forums, it is because they don't know it means something else than kisses from France.

Most French people don't know what  x and o's mean (especially since hugs don't exist in France) unless they have learned it from an English speaker. So they write out the full words and send kisses at the end of a letter by saying "Grosses bises" ( = Big kisses) or simply "Bises" or " Bisous" or  " je t'embrasse" (literally, "I kiss you").

Now if he's PERFECTLY bilingual maybe he meant it as a French kiss if you have already kissed. Only YOU can know how good his English is.
