Best Answer

"Oh, I will tell you, Mom"* is a literal English equivalent of the French phrase Ah, vous dirai-je, Maman. The pronunciation of the phrase in the first person singular of the future indicative -- which names piano composition K. 265/300e by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart (January 27, 1756 - December 5, 1791) -- will be "ah voo dee-rezh ma-ma" in French.

*English equivalents also include "Mama, Mommy, Mum, Mummy."

Shall I tell you is an English equivalent of 'Vous dirai je'. The personal pronoun 'vous' means 'you'. The verb 'dirai' means '[I] shall or will say or tell'. The subject pronoun 'je' means 'I'. All together, they're pronounced 'voo dee-rehzh'.
