Usually, people’s emails are in English so it’s normal to retain ‘forward’ and not transférer a document. Let’s say that some franglais sentences are a mix of laziness and pure convenience.

Ils ont towé mon char les maudits means ‘they towed my car the bastards’. When you’re so angry that you can’t make a proper French sentence you really mean it when you say you’re angry about it.
