What will the Frenchman say?
$begingroup$
An Englishman, a Frenchman and a German are speaking.
First the Englishman says : "M".
Then the Frenchman says : "M" as well.
And the German also says : "M".
They all agree and decide to change the order.
The German says : "D".
The Frenchman says : "V".
And the Englishman says : "S".
They agree again and change the order. The Frenchman will be the first to speak.
What will the Frenchman say?
The expected answer is just a letter, but, to be accepted, explanations will be needed.
