For once I have chosen a foreign word – the lovely French word Bisous. It means kisses.
Le bisou - masculine noun - meaning a kiss.
Faire un bisou à quelqu'un - to give someone a kiss (on the cheek);
faire un petit bisou à quelqu'un - to give someone a (little) peck on the cheek ;
"
Bisous" (kisses) is quite a normal way to end a letter between two friends (most commonly when it's a girl writing)
Also "
gros bisous, Simon" - "love and kisses, Simon";
"
gros bisous de ta mère" - "love and kisses from your mother"
That sounds like you've received something with 'bisous' on it, Anon. Hope it was good!
