Faux pas

Gendy writes:
Can someone tell me what the plural of faux pas is? Is it faux pases? Fauxs pas?

Dear Gendy:
"Faux pas" may seem intimidating, but it's actually the simplest of phrases to pluralize because it doesn't change. The plural of "faux pas" is "faux pas." How to pronounce it, well, you'll have to ask those dirty French. Here at TOSC, we shower with a dictionary.

    Thank you Bad D. Now I can be sure never to make any faux pas.

    That's all well and good. But where is Craig's response to my question about the phrase "know from"? Will I never get an answer now that he's off the desk?
