Honi soit qui mal y pense


In current French usage, the phrase may be used ironically to imply the presence of a hidden agenda or a conflict of interest.[1]

The motto appears on a representation of the garter, surrounding the Shield of the Royal coat of arms of the United Kingdom used outside Scotland.

The motto appears in a royal coat of arms of the 17th century on the ceiling of Bath Abbey.


Honi soit qui mal y pense (UK: /??ni ?sw?? ki? ?mæl i? 'p?~s/, US: /- ?m??l -/, French: [?ni swa ki mal i p?~s]) is a maxim in the Anglo-Norman language, a dialect of Old Norman French spoken by the medieval ruling class in England, meaning "shamed be whoever thinks ill of it", usually translated as "shame on anyone who thinks evil of it".[1] It is the motto of the British chivalric Order of the Garter, the highest of all British knighthoods, except in Scotland.[2]
