Other than butchering the French, solid segment.

Trah-sair is about as close as I can get without actually vocalizing it to you. If you can say that with a French accent, you're closer still. What got butchered in the video though was "traceuse," which is pronounced trah-suhz (again, as close as I can get without vocalizing it). When "traceuse" is plural, the "s" is silent, so it's still pronounced the same way. So to hear them say "traysooses" was a little grating. Some would say it's not a big deal, but it's about being as informed on the topic as possible. That includes pronunciation.
