“…'Dame Sirith' seems to have been the first English fabliau, but Lewis distinguishes all three from the French fabliaux by the English texts' unique use of 'characterization', 'personalities' and 'direct speech'. 12 Chaucer's influence on Shakespeare has been documented by Ann Thompson and Ian Donaldson, though neither discusses the significance of the fabliau genre in Chaucer. Donaldson refers to 'The Merchant's Tale', while Thompson alludes to 'fabliau material' only to dismiss its influence in terms of plot on Shakespeare.…”

Catherine’s language lesson in Henry V turns on the use of two bawdy French words, foutre and con – or rather, on the English words foot and gown which, when pronounced by the French speakers, sound like the bawdy words. In the courtship scene, Harry and Catherine avoid such words, yet each desires what they signify; both play a linguistic game in which they attempt to achieve what decorum prevents them from naming. Instead of direct and clear expression, this linguistic game involves figurative language and euphemism. A source for the linguistic principles underpinning both scenes is the medieval French fabliau.
