mon dieu
Parisian's shocked outburst
Mon dieu is a French exclamation meaning "my God," used in English to express surprise, exasperation, or dismay with a touch of theatrical flair: Mon dieu, what have you done?
Like other borrowed expressions, it often carries a slightly ironic or affected tone, as if the speaker is performing astonishment rather than simply experiencing it.
