This is a list of all the French words Enter uses throughout the series. Text in bold and italic is an explanation of the word's meaning.

Majesté = Majesty

S'il vous plaît = Please

C'est bon = It's good

C'est si bon = It's very good

Très bien = very good

Ça va/ça va = How are you?/Fine.

This word can be used as both a question and an answer. In Go-Busters, Enter uses it as a question when talking to the Go-Busters, asking how they are.

Allô! Allô! Allô! = Hello hello hello.

In Go-Busters, Enter says it to greet someone. In actuality, this is used when answering the phone. It's also used to ask if someone is listening.

Monsieurs = misters.

Although Enter pronounces it like that, this is actually a mistake of his part. The word is derived from "monsieur", which in turn comes from "mon seigneur", meaning "my lord". The correct plural form is "messieurs", which comes from "mes seigneurs". This is a common mistake non-native French speakers make, because they have a lack of knowledge in grammar and vocabulary.

Passionant = fascinating, exciting

d'acc = all right, OK

This is short for "d'accord", it's commonly used in speech, more specifically teenager and the lot.

Je suis désolé = I'm sorry

This is a more formal way of saying sorry in French.
