When I was at school in England in the 1980s we used to get trainee teachers over from France to lead French conversation groups. The word for these was assistante. Pronounced and written the French way. I guess this was OK seeing most of them were female. Until one day we got a male "assistante" and our head teacher, who obviously wasn't too good at French, insisted on calling him an assistante.

OH's family uses lots of chives in dishes. In HG it's schnittlauch...but in his family's dialect it's schniedling...awww. We often pronounce English words in a Germanic fashion, "It's schticking to the pan!!'

and our stew schmurgels when it's cooking slowly and barely bubbling.

I found myself using the term "doing home-office", which I'd never have said back home (rather "working from home").

People are even home-officing now around here. Can't tell coz the duty calls for going to work everyday

There's seems to be "frère" now freely inserted anywhere here, I am just waiting for that French "bro" showin' up in my vocabulary..Quatsch.

I was vaguely horrified a few months back when I overheard a 20-something guy jabbering away on his phone in French but inserting "like" into every other sentence in exactly the same annoying way some people overuse "like" in English.

I really, really hope it doesn't catch on.
