Best Answer

Frenchman in good company will sometimes refer to themselves jokingly as "frogs", but otherwise the term is taken to be disparaging, offensive and in poor taste.

As for being racist, it certainly could be when used by a person of a different 'race" than the person referred to. It is more likely, however, to be considered a "hate" word when used between people of the same race, say an Ontario Englishman to a Quebec Frenchman.

In any case, the term has no place in decent society.

What is 'frog' when translated from English to French slang?

Français and Française are French slang equivalents of the English word "frog." The word translates as grenouille when referencing the amphibian whose legs French language speakers eat and as "Frenchman" (case 1) or "Frenchwoman" (example 2) when referring to the French as frog-eaters. The respective pronunciations will be "fraw-seh" or "fraw-sez" for the slang term and "gruh-nwee" for the animal in French.
