Say Her Name! Beyonce Is Getting Added to the French Dictionary


Beyonce’s name is, literally, one for the books — French dictionary Le Petit Larousse will add her name to its new edition

From being a show-stopping performer to raising three kids, Beyoncé is simply “Irreplaceable” — and has been crowned Us Weekly’s newest woman crush. Knowles recalled in a 2020 episode of the “In My Heart With Heather Thomson” podcast asking her mother why she didn’t ask the hospital to correct the spelling error. Other new additions to the dictionary include “fast fashion,” adopted from English, and “platisme,” the French term for flat earth theory.
