What are the exact words in French that Annie says to her father 1998 version of The Parent Trap I already know translation but what were all she actually said?

You're looking for the exact French words Annie says to her father in the 1998 version of *The Parent Trap*! It's tricky because it's a fictionalized version of French and not grammatically correct. Here's what she says, with a breakdown of what it roughly means:

Annie: "Papa, je suis désolée de t'avoir fait de la peine. Je t'aime."

Translation:

* Papa: Daddy (common way to address father in French)

* je suis désolée: I am sorry (literally, "I am sorry")

* de t'avoir fait de la peine: for having hurt you (literally, "for having made you pain")

* Je t'aime: I love you

It's worth noting:

* The word "peine" is a bit formal, and a child would likely use "mal" (pain) or "chagrin" (sorrow).

* The grammar isn't perfect, but it sounds like child-like French.
