[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It's bourgeoise.[/quote] No it's not. It's bourgeois. [/quote] Actually in France we refer to it as bourgeoisie. Bourgeois is just a surname, meaning of the city, it is very common, like Smith or Jones is in the US. If you are trying to sort of insult someone, calling them new money and materialistic, its bourgeoisie. [/quote] I speak French, but in this case it's being used in English. In English you talk of the bourgeoisie (as did Marx ie the upper classes) and you describe something or someone as bourgeois. [/quote]
