What would be the closest thing to "Bitch, Please!" in French?

Putain sounds right to me too; I know for sure that "puta" is a Spanish derogatorry term for a woman, though my memory is leaning more towards "whore" than "bitch".

Since the languages are closely related though, I'd guess that putain would be the noun you'd want, with the 'sil vous plait'.

puta/putain means whore not bitch, though I guess it's close enough. ;)

Salope, s'il te plaît!

? ...or perhaps it's "vous" until you've handed over your cash?

Okay, now I'm thoroughly confused! *whimper*

The meaning of the phrase is, "Oh, bitch," (calling someone a bitch) " PLEASE!" (which is like, oh PLEASE, as if). If that helps. I was confused over the saying too, at first (Cause people would put it in icons without the correct punctuation).

Need to check with a native to be sure...

The "salope!" "putain!" ought to be a perfectly good smackdown.

The "oh, PLEASE..." might need a less literal translation, then again, it sounds OK to me.

Well, Salope, etc should be good. It'll look great next to Hercule Poirot. LOL!
