: A well-known instance of subtitle censorship occurs in a scene with Princess Isabella's handmaiden. In French, she makes a ribald joke about Englishmen not knowing "what a tongue is for." In many TV edits, the English subtitles are softened to "what a bed is for," though the original French audio remains unchanged.
: Critics have pointed out the irony of the film's "romance" between Wallace and Isabella, as a real 13th-century princess and a Scottish rebel likely would not have shared a common language without significant difficulty. Discussion on Viewing Experience

William Wallace and the Scots would likely have spoken Scottish Gaelic , Middle English , or Norman-French , none of which would be fully intelligible to modern audiences without translation.
