So I guess the French invented the term yikes. At least, it was the English who got it going. Found this out from wikipedia which is an awesome resource.
Roast beef
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Roast beef
Sunday roast consisting of roast beef, roast potatoes, vegetables and yorkshire puddingRoast beef (also known as a roast) is a cut of beef which is roasted in an oven. Roast beef is often served within sandwiches and sometimes is used to make hash. In England roast beef is one of the meats traditionally served at Sunday Dinner.
[edit]
In Culture
In Europe, the English are particularly associated with beef-eating, which is why the French call them les rosbifs (roast beefs).
In fact, according to research carried out by the Museum of London amongst Roman rubbish dumps in London, it seems that Britons acquired their first taste of roast beef from the Roman military as the city expanded under their occupation. Despite this, it seems not to have become popular amongst the population in general until the Middle Ages or later, and only became a ‘national caricature’ in the 18th century. (Observer August 6, 2000).
There is also a (much parodied) song called The Roast Beef of Old England.

Well this is just a stub as they call it in Wikipedia. Maybe I should expand it since it is so short!
