He never went "pure French"

  Depends on your perspective I guess. I see your point that they’re all phrases in the English dictionary. From a French perspective though it’s mixed French/English until the end which would be entirely French.

      I remember that from a long time ago. It’s fun to read the last sentence first and have it be unreadable. Then read from the beginning and it’s perfectly readable.
