Absolutely correct translation, but as a french person myself I would like to add that Boulanger is actually a store chain present on the entire country that sells NOTHING related to baked goods ! The shops sells electronics and home appliances so yea being french and seeing them go into a shop named boulanger to buy croissants and bread was really funny because if you actually do that in France you'll get very confused because all you'll see are computers, fridges and hair dryers !

Oof they spelt it wrong 😭 Boulanger = Baker while Boulangerie = Bakery

#twisted wonderland #twst glorious masquerade #I think it's very funny that they made this mistake because it's a fail in every way and I've never laughed so hard at such as small detail #just imagine Azul bringing Epel and Deuce in the shop for some baked goods and ending up facing a dozen different vacuum cleaners #because as if it wasn't already a nightmare to understand we use th #“but aren't you a boulanger (baker)?” “nah you've got to go to Marie Blachère if you want a brioche”#“however we can sell you the perfect robot to make a brioche yourself if you need”#the french's brand names make no sense now you know #a compassionate thought to every person learning french out here #because if it wasn't already a nightmare to understand we use the words to make it even more confusing #at this point the people making brands just want to confuse non french-speaking people #fun fact but I wasn't raised in Feance and when I came back I was shocked that boulanger wasn't a hypermarket for bread #nothing can prepare you to enter a shop called “baker” and see an entire iphone corner not even when you're french
