About Shoecabbage
A "shoecabbage" is a word in another language with the same sound as a word in English but with a different meaning. For example, in English a "shoe" is a covering for a foot, while in French "shoe" [spelled: chou] means "cabbage". Teresa Dowlatshahi and David Stanford’s single panel cartoon is both informative and entertaining!

It became a loanword into English, spelled “fosse”.
