"Oh Canada/Terre-UH de nos aieux"
"Allons enfants de la Patrie-UH..."
"L'amour est un oiseau rebelle-UH"
Even the very first song we learn in French is filled with cheats:
Frère-UH Jacques-UH, Frère-UH Jacques-UH
Dormez-vous? Dormez-vous
Sonnez les matines-UH, sonnez le matines-UH
Ding dang dong, ding dang dong
The ENTIRE meter and rhyme of the song is made up of letters that should be silent!
Half the language is made up of silent letters, but the instant they start singing they start gratuitously pronouncing even the weakest of vowels.
