I agree with all the explanations except " cheesy ". I think ( but do not know! ) that it probably comes from saying " cheese " for a photo where you have to smile. Cheesy is not " silly " but more an over-exaggeration of sweetness.

For example if the winner of Wimbledon in his victory speech brought on his pet dog and then a shopkeeper on a stretcher in a coma and said this was the first person who sold me a tennis racket - then that would be cheesy. ........ johnB.

Tx John for explaining “cheesy” Is it “mielleux” in French ?

Je pense que oui pourvu que l'adjectif ait un élément de criticisme. Qui le sait ? ( who knows ? ) Autre suggestion - ringuard ? I don't know how to hold this message as a draft while I check something. Tant pis ! johnB

Sorry to bother you and thank you , Muriel. But where is the "editer" button. Is it on the screen or on my keyboard. johnB.
