Sometimes a poem or song uses multiple languages, and often poems or songs use words that rhyme. This trope is the logical conclusion of both of those facts: The rhyming of words or phrases in two different languages. Can alleviate the Least Rhymable Word in some cases, such as there is no single word that rhymes with "orange" in English for example, but there are several in French. Also with Foreign Cuss Word if Subverted Rhyme Every Occasion is not enough to get crap past the censors. Subtrope of Bilingual Bonus and Sister trope to Gratuitous Foreign Language. This is also called a macaronic song. |

Crazy Ex-Girlfriend: "JAP Battle" is a rap between the two Jewish American Princesses Rebecca and Audra, who mix Hebrew and Yiddish phrases into their lyrics. At one point, Audra tells Rebecca, "Between your folks' divorce and that haircut on you / I'm really not sure which one's the bigger shondeh." Rebecca translates the lyric in her next line for the "goys" in the audience (it essentially means "disgrace"). | |
