En français, la phrase « viens mon chou, mon bijou, mon joujou, sur mes genoux, et jette des cailloux à ce hibou plein de poux. » est un moyen mnémotechnique de se souvenir que les mots « chou », « bijou » « joujou », « genou », « caillou », « hibou », et « pou » prennent un « x » au pluriel.
Nos ancêtres ne disposaient pas comme nous des coffres-forts et des caves de la Banque de France.
