If I'm not mistaken, they're probably referring to the fact that in French, "femme" is pronounced like "fum", not "fem"
fums can be thums
For once, the English way of pronouncing it makes more sense
As a French woman, femme in French, maybe femme in the sense of femme, definitely fem though, it makes conversations akward 😄
I do prononce it the accepted way in English, don't worry.
I don't speak French at all but "en fem" feels weird to say so I use a shitty attempt at the French pronunciation of "en femme" lol
If you're curious femme in French is kinda pronounced like fam from family. Maybe a slightly longer a but long and short vowels in French are kinda volatile and heavily subject to local accents so meh
Ah!
