    In french, “le quignon”. I have no idea where this word comes from, what it means, and if every French people use this word.

    I don’t like the “quignon” but my wife does. I think we complete each others.

      I’ve lived in France for 20 years and never heard that word.

      I’ll check and see what my wife calls it…

        Elle dit quignon.

        Bon voilà, à 42 ans j’apprends le mot quignon. 30 ans que je parle français, 20 ans en France… Merci !

          That felt oddly wholesome.

          I’ll translate for others:

          she said quignon.

          there we go, at 42yo I learned the word quignon. [After] speaking French for 30 years and living in France for 20 years… Thanks!
