Do you know what pamplemousse means? It is the best word ever in the French language. I love it.

as far as I'm concerned, it's among the best words in -any- language.
and that includes ancient Greek, which has a verb that means "to thrust a radish up the fundament" (a common punishment for adultery).

Which brings to mind Michael Bond (the man who wrote Paddington) and his M. Pamplemousse mystery series.
