It means "new" in French. Surprisingly you managed to type it correctly.

New word for you: "surprenant"

i am on one pubnix community where the admin calls all their services based on anime names (I assume), so the pubnix site is called Geidontei (thankfully there are bookmarks)

@stack, I remember the time before accented characters in the 80s, I really hated that (C64 and such machines)

I just hate developers coming up with a name like: nouveau. I had to check 3 times if I've written that right. Srsly, you really want to see the world burn? How about njiIllI1ji next time?
