Can you spell it here phonetically?

Lol my first thought was actually saying "mercredi" which is Wednesday in French, but said quickly could sound like eh cadis.

Though i don't think saying "Wednesday" is slang in French...

Probably "câlice"

Ca suffit ? : "That's enough !"

Might be a stretch, but could be "deguedine"? That means "hurry up".

This is it right here.

It means chalice, or the chalice that the wine for church is in, its slang and when used is considered a curse term, like god dammit, or Jesus Christ!

Depending on the situation it could be "E Klis", broken French for Christ...I've heard it a million times

I think that’s right. Lots of Canadian French swears are religious in nature. Like “tabernak!”

For sure, don’t say tabernac up north, it’s like screaming the C word in a room full of women.

My friends parents used to say Egads, it meant like omg but in an annoyed way.

this must be it. Thank you! I have such funny memories of this time lol. She would catch us smoking cigs and come running with a wooden spoon "Eh calice!"

My grandfather used to say it when he was really angry and it definitely had an effect on the room lol

Does anyone say bonbye anymore or was that a very localized thing to the Lewiston Auburn area? I'm old 60+....

I had a roommate from Van Buren and he would let out stream ending in “ Calvar” which he said was French for Calvary.
