Is English just badly pronounced French?
#2
Nice view on the French influence on the Enlish language. 
 
A few French words we use in our West Flemish language (Belgium) (West Flemish / French / English)

pertank / pourtant / nevertheless
forsette of ferkette / fourchette / fork
assiete/taljore / assiette/tailloir /plate 
couvers / couverts / cutlery
freings / freins / brakes
vèlo / vélo / bike
fateure / voiture (d'enfant) / stroller
facteur (fakteur) / facteur / postman
cha(m)brang / chambranle / door frame

A whole lot of French words we use in West Flemish (West Flemish / Dutch)
