How Do You Say 'Twitter' in French?

Posted Nov 23rd 2009 11:10AM by Amar Toor

The mellifluous, oh-so-romantic French language may be dying a slow death throughout much of the world, but on Twitter, at least, it's as vivant as ever.

Just a few weeks after the site unveiled its new Spanish version, Twitter has now made itself available in French, as well. The site commemorated the latest achievement in its ongoing translation project with a French post on its blog. (You can find the English translation here.) If you don't live in a Francophone country, that doesn't mean you can't tweet in French. All you have to do is change your settings, and voila.
Besides making Twitter more accessible to global audiences, what this really means is that now everyone's tweets can be more stylish, more sophisticated... and just a bit more snobby. Vive la France! [From: Mashable]
