I recommend that you do exactly that.

You see, the thing is that Hillary Clinton is quite likely to become our next President here in the US. We won't call her "Billary."

You probably shouldn't, either.

Êtes-vous en France? MineralMan Feb 2014 #26
Yes Im French, and always lived there mylye2222 Feb 2014 #36
MM - Some of us know this poster as a human rights activist in France. She's legit blm Feb 2014 #54
OK. MineralMan Feb 2014 #58
They use the word Billary the same way E will say 'Brangelina'. It's NOT a pejorative there. blm Feb 2014 #90
Whatever you say. MineralMan Feb 2014 #105
So that is all you have to contribute? TroglodyteScholar Feb 2014 #18
Correctly using slang like 'Billary' isn't helping the non-native English narrative you are trying stevenleser Feb 2014 #19
She's for real, steve. blm Feb 2014 #56
Which makes it even weirder. Iggo Feb 2014 #64

Yes, really. And I'm talking about today, not '04. Iggo Feb 2014 #77
Think what you want - she's using the term the way they say 'Brangelina' - nice of you to target her blm Feb 2014 #89
I said if she's as legit as you say (and I have no reason to believe she's not)... Iggo Feb 2014 #93
And I said, NOT REALLY. Not if you paid attention to what had been going on during the timeframe blm Feb 2014 #98
And then I said YES REALLY... Iggo Feb 2014 #111
So what? See my #103 below. nt stevenleser Feb 2014 #104
She is French - karynnj Feb 2014 #101
Then its still her fault. You should never use slang in another language unless you are sure stevenleser Feb 2014 #103
Actually - she was sure of its meaning and you knew who she meant karynnj Feb 2014 #108
That's silly. A European poster should see 'Brangelina' as OK, but, should question 'Billary' before blm Feb 2014 #112
Please forgive the rudeness of some of the replies. NYC_SKP Feb 2014 #80
