Hi everyone,

I'm thinking of titling one my chapters using French - and even though it will kind of be a play on words, I also would really like it to be authentic. If anyone here is fluent in French I would really appreciate the help!

The characters are a mixture of French and Americans, the main character is American but fluent in French, so that is a little background. The chapter will be highlighting a tour of a kink resort and I wanted to use something like "Tour de Plaisir" or would it be "Tour du Plaisir" or neither? Also would it need to start with Le (Le Tour de Plaisir)?

Thank you in advance for any help!

Ok...I'll be honest. My mother tongue is French. However, I am not quite sure what you mean. I think both Tour de Plaisir and Tour du Plaisir could be used. This is so subtle. I'd be tempted to use Tour du Plaisir if it was an actual Tower. As for a tour of kinky pleasure I'd go with (La) or (Une) Tournée de Plaisir.

Oh, my gosh, that's why I needed help. I was trying to find the correct verbiage for 'a tour' and all I was finding was the word 'tour' and I felt that might be wrong. I was also under the impression the difference between de and du were 'the' and 'of'? I probably got that wrong, too - or like you said, it's too subtle to make a difference.

The tour is just to different rooms and areas of a kink resort, and definitely not in a tower.

Thank you so much for your help!

Any time.
