It has two meanings:
1. An Anglophone (or native English speaker) who speaks French as a second language that is:
a) too lazy to think of the correct translation for what they're saying, and therefore incorporate English words into their sentences, or
b) make a direct word-for-word translation of what they wish to say, in which case the translated term doesn't make sense in French.
A common thing done by French Immersion students, especially in Canada.
2. English words that are also used in French.
1. a) French speaker: "Alors, est-ce que tu veux le jus d'orange ou l'eau?" ("So, do you want orange juice or water?")
Franglais speaker: "Je ne care pas." ("I don't care.")
b) Franglais speaker: "Yo, longtemps, pas voir!" (Word-for-word translation of "Yo, long time, no see!")
French speaker: "Quoi...?"
2. "Le soccer," "le hot dog" and "le ski" are examples of English words that are used in the French language.

Franglais
A combonation of two languages: Français and Anglaise (French and English).
Franglais can be either a French conversation peppered with English words, or vice versa.
It is commonly used by French teenagers.
It does not necessarily mean that they have forgotten a word, although using Franglais is a good coverup if they do forget the translation of some words.
The words used DO have proper translations.
Franglais:
Gina: Ah mon amie, veux-tu un beer?
Moi: Non merci, je suis le stuffed. As-tu regardé le episode de Newport Beach hier?!
Gina: Mais bien sûr! Ben McKenzie est un hunk hein?
Moi: Je pense que obviously.
Translated:
Gina: Want a beer?
Me: No thanks, I'm stuffed. Did you watch the O.C. yesterday?!
Gina: Duh! Ben McKenzie is a total hottie eh?
Me: He's rellin.
