French-ish-sounding

adj. Sorta kinda Frenchy-flavored.

Real citation: "Nope. Nothing particularly significant about the name. It came from a random French-ish-sounding name generator. It is, indeed, the world in which the comic takes place."

Made-up citation: "Even a monolingual baboon like myself knows words like 'schmoopsie-poo' are not remotely French-ish-sounding. Yiddish-ish-sounding, maybe."
