Personal Review
I tend to confuse Morocco with Monaco. Morocco is a country located in northwestern Africa, with Arabic and French as working languages, whereas Monaco is a small country in western Europe, known for gambling and speaking French. They share the French tongue. This is my luck.
A tour in Morocco introduced the charm of both English and French to Eric. As his list of acquired words and expressions rolls out, I experience aha moments time and again.
It is a revered tradition to take a hammam in Morocco. Many Moroccan women spend several hours in a hammam, cleaning themselves up from top to bottom. I caught a glimpse of the French word "homme" on the photo Eric took outside a hammam. I guess that's the entrance of men's hammam.
Coiffeur in French is a male hairdresser. For female, coiffeuse. I was surprised when Eric said "coiffeur" was male only. As far as I know, he knows little French. After consulting a dictionary, I now see the word has been transferred into English. The adj "coiffed" is used to describe an attractive hairstyle. For example, entertainment stars sport coiffed hair.
Julius Caesar said in Latin," Veni vidi vici." In English, "I came, I saw, I conquered." In French, <<Je suis venu, j'ai vu, j'ai vaincu. >> 中文，"我来，我见，我征服。" A travel between languages is worthwhile.
