[Nannie1959]

The following is a quotation from a poem, song, book, film or a famous person. I am stuck on this last one, any help would be very much appreciated...thanx in advance.

1. .....Quand les mots qui vent tres bien ensemble.

[jaycee401]

when the words which wind very well together

[yogasun]

in Michelle (the Beatles)
it's
..sont les mots, etc.

Sorry if that's not helpful!

[Nannie1959]

Thank you both so much..........looks as though the english and french words are in the version of the song, so I am going to go along with Michelle, thanx once again

'qui vend tres bien' - which go together well - not 'vent', whic is wind as Nannie originally said.

It's 'vont' (go) . Sont les mots... "Are the words which go together very well "

So it's 'some words' (des mots) and not 'the words'(les mots). That brings a whole new meaning and nuance.LOL A French friend reported that Paul McCartney speaking French sounded more Russian than English .Hmm.Back in the USSR, huh ?

it's just 'are words...' rather than 'are the words...' - just as in English. I seem to recall Paul got the French words from Jane Asher since he's wasn't very francophone himself.
