DynaMike ◊ 2007-08-17 23:50	Maybe it's a way of showing the 'Frenchness' of the taxis Taxi is written the same way in English and French, but the stress is different. Sort of hypercorrection?
antp ◊ 2007-08-18 00:09	But a accented "i" does not exist in French, it makes more Italian... ("Tâxi" or "Tàxi" would be more "logical" then ) -- Last edit: 2007-08-18 00:10:13
Gag Halfrunt ◊ 2007-08-18 00:17	Could it be something else -- a sticker, a logo, etc?
DynaMike ◊ 2007-08-18 00:22	In Italian it's 'Tassi' with the stress on 'a'... 'Táxi' in Portuguese, 'Taxi' (or 'Taxímetro') in Spanish... ???
