    I thought “chat” with a hard “t” in French meant “piss”, cat is pronounced “cha”. I was told this by a French speaker when I was talking about a “chat noir” poster, using a hard “t” and they said “you’re sayong black piss! The “t” is silent for cat”.

    Can anyone confirm? I feel this is important for this post, “chat gpt” could mean “piss, I farted”

      French here. I don’t know where did he invent the meaning of ‘piss’ for chat with a hard t. That looks like a joke. For the rest if true. Chat for cat is pronounced without the t

      I am not aware of any meaning of chat with a hard T meaning piss. Maybe something local and not widespread. edit: looks like canadian french

            You do realize you’re in a shitpost community right?

            You should also realize this is a jank on ‘artificial intelligence’…
