want fries with that?
sounds pretty american to me

we live close to France and have to learn it in school but actually english is easier to learn........... so the French speak english as well

We call em' "French Fries",don't know why,maybe that's how they do it in France:Potatos cut lengthwise & deep fried="French Fries".

So the saying"want fries with that",originated with fast food restaurants here in America,when you order a hamburger the waiter will ask"You want fries with that?.Hence my vocabulary of "French"!!!

the french call them "pommes frits" which means "potatoes fried"
ok, l learned something for my everyday life and will not blame the waiter
