- French speakers may pair aïd moubarak with the gesture of kissing both cheeks, known as 'la bise', depending on the relationship.
- In Quebec, the use of Bonne fête! for Eid is a linguistic quirk because in standard French, 'Bonne fête' is most commonly used to wish someone a happy 'name day' or birthday.
- The spelling aïd in French uses a tréma (the two dots over the 'i') to ensure the 'a' and the 'i' are pronounced as two separate syllables, preventing it from being read as a single sound.
