Reading this rather late - but another epic episode.... the French for oomph appears to be "punch" - try pronouncing that in the colloquial. I warn you though, the definition is "the quality of being exciting, energetic or sexually attractive" - so take care when you barge through the next cafe door in a leopardskin leotard!

That is fantastic trivia at best. A battering from a gruff group of Frenchmen at worst. Time will tell which!
