    And even Le Rosbif!

    "Rosbifs became a mark of the Englishman as far as the French were concerned in the 18th Century, simply because it was a very popular way of cooking," he says.

    "That style began to apply to other meats cooked in the same way, so you would also have 'rosbif de mouton' and that sort of thing."

    Thus an English term becomes part of the French vocabulary, like "le weekend", part of a spread of the English language which infuriates many French. Rosbif as a name for roast beef, however, carried on spreading and is now also used in Spain and Italy.
