Word of the day: Brouhaha

Hey all-

While I have beaucoup words that I’ve looked up in the dictionary that are interesting, this one was too cool to pass up sharing with the blahgosphere. I didn’t look it up per sé, but just noticed it while flipping through, and it just jumped out as being a bit ridiculous for a French-English translation:

brouhaha: hubbub

Good thing I have a dictionary to tell me that “brouhaha” in French means “hubbub” in English. Jeez.
