There are others too. I used to think it was a bit excessive. It seemed like every time I did something, someone was wishing a 'Bon' this and a "Bonne" that, however now I catch myself wishing I could use them in English. They're so short and convenient and when I try to use the English equivalent it just doesn't seem to translate or fit the situation as well. Funny how that happens. I guess it's a sign that I'm becoming more and more accustomed to speaking mostly in French.
