Chapeau! ^_^

While Dash's housemate was resting on the couch, Dash was seated on the floor with her back against the couch, surfing the web. Suddenly, Dash felt a soft pillow being arranged on the top of her head and a gleeful announcement from her housemate, "Chapeau!" =_= ...

^_^ Hrm, actually, the chapeau looks rather good on Dash :D

Interestingly, a wiki search on "chapeau" also yielded the eyebrow-raising news that "chapeau!" is also used as a generic term of approval in France and other parts of Europe. Now what we need is Jerry to tell us if that is true ...

Sure. (Here I am hovering, at your beck and call.) "Chapeau" means "Bravo!" or "Congratulations!" It's like saying "Hat!" as a short version of "Hats off!" or "I tip my hat to you."

Hey Jerry! : ) Thanks for the info! OMG, you are so amazing! Ilya was right - you would know the info at your fingertips! ^_^

And hey Jerry, you have no idea how much Ilya and I miss you all! :D I have been contemplating to negotiate with my bosses to have no-pay leave for a month a year just to hang out longer with you all! ^_^
