My friend calls me La'Rouge because I'm french. What does it mean in English?

Question

Ive asked him, he doesnt know either. We think La' is the and Rouge is red. but we really have no clue =P

Answer 1

Ya, "la rouge" means "the red" but it can mean "the communist" (the color red associated with communism, the red scare and all). It is also a popular name for bars and such in Canada (Toronto) and maybe in France.  

Answer 2

Do you wear a lot of makeup? Rouge is a type of makeup. But if you're French, why are you writing la' with an apostrophe? It's "la". I suppose you don't speak French -- then how can you be French? I don't get your question.

Answer 3

La Rogue is literally "The Red".  Like others have said, it could mean because of your views politically, but I don't think so to be honest.  Most likely it's because you might have red hair.  Your avater has red/brownish hair, so if you're a redhead, I think that's why.

Answer 4

1)You are called "la Rouge"most probably because your views - on certain subjects - are very close to the ones a communist would hold. That's how French people call communists without using the proper noun "communist".

"la Rouge" is not meant to be a denigrating  appellation but it conveys exactly how they perceive your attitude.

La Rouge = the Red One

2)

la =  feminine singular article = the

rouge = the colour red

3) Are you a redhead --> someone with red hair ?

That may also be a reason to be called "la Rouge" although the normal way to say this would be "la rousse"and not "la rouge".

Hope this helps.
