merde it is...

well i guess u guys will be scratchin ur heads thinkin what merde actually is... don worry, thats what i am here for... to explain, to guide and more than anythin else, to talk crap... a whole load of crap...

but lets stick to the basics for now alright...

merde in french literally means shit... so does the word caca, which little french children use instead of the former, more 'elegant' form... the french use the term merde basically to curse as we might with the word shit!!! and so they go; ah merde!!!, as we might with oh shit!!!...

but i guess some of u guys might already be familiar with this word; merde, as it is the title of such good books (published quite recently... not that recently though...) comme, A Year in the Merde (2004) and Merde Actually (2005)... the latter being the 'sequel' of the former... duhhh... (a synopsis of the two books will be provided in later posts)...

so there it is... but before i leave, a little food-for-thought; if caca (which is pronounced kaka) means shit, what do u think the french think of, of the brazillian boy wonder footballer KAKA??? and more importantly, what do u think KAKA thinks of after knowing that he's been spotting the word, closely signifying shit (at least in pronunciation) above his number 8 for brazil...?
