At the risk of ruining it, can you explain the joke? I know that "le" is and article for "the", but what is "le weekend"? I thought the French worked short weeks compared to Americans, so they would have at least as long a weekend as Americans.
The use of the word "weekend" rather than its French equivalent. Other examples: le hot dog and le fast food (not sure about the gender on these).
