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 so 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.

Comment allez-vous, Madame ? = How are you, Mrs.?

More formal way to ask if someone is fine.

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.

À plus = See ya

Short for À plus tard (See you later).

Ma puce = My flea

This is the literal translation of the word, in truth this is actually an affectionate term, like "Honey" or "Sweetheart" in English. It's used when you are very close friends to someone, or for children, as they tend to be sweet and small.
