| english idioms french equivalents: A Dictionary of English Idioms with Their French Translation (Classic Reprint) Jean Roemer, 2017-11-23 Excerpt from A Dictionary of English Idioms With Their French Translation As this volume has been prepared especially with the view of enabling the American to translate his own language into grammatical, idiomatical, written and colloquial French, and of rendering it equally useful for the library, the parlor, and the counting-house, as well as the school-room, such phrases have been selected in preference as relate to literature, the fine arts, and commerce, besides conversational expressions, and terms of etiquette in established use. These have been carefully classified and translated into French, according to the rules of Grammar and the usage of polite society; in such cases, when the sense is liable to be affected by the context or circumstances, the translation is made in as many forms or synonymous expressions as are necessary to illustrate the various shades of meaning in which the term may occur.

| english idioms french equivalents: Lewis Carroll's Alice's Adventures in Wonderland and Through the Looking-Glass Zoe Jaques, Eugene Giddens, 2016-05-06 Emerging in several different versions during the author's lifetime, Lewis Carroll's Alice novels have a publishing history almost as magical and mysterious as the stories themselves. Zoe Jaques and Eugene Giddens offer a detailed and nuanced account of the initial publication of Alice's Adventures in Wonderland and Through the Looking-Glass and investigate how their subsequent transformations through print, illustration, film, song, music videos, and even stamp-cases and biscuit tins affected the reception of these childhood favourites. The authors consider issues related to the orality of the original tale and its impact on subsequent transmission, the differences between the manuscripts and printed editions, and the politics of writing and publishing for children in the 1860s. In addition, they take account of Carroll's own responses to the books' popularity, including his writing of major adaptations and a significant body of meta-textual commentary, and his reactions to the staging of Alice in Wonderland. Attentive to the child reader, how changing notions of childhood identity and needs affected shifting narratives of the story, and the representation of the child's body by various illustrators, the authors also make a significant contribution to childhood studies. |

| english idioms french equivalents: Phraseology Sylviane Granger, Fanny Meunier, 2008 Long regarded as a peripheral issue, phraseology is now taking centre stage in a wide range of fields. This recent explosion of interest undoubtedly has a great deal to do with the development of corpus linguistics research, which has both demonstrated the key role of phraseological expressions in language and provided researchers with automated methods of extraction and analysis. The aim of this volume is to take stock of current research in phraseology from a variety of perspectives: theoretical, descriptive, contrastive, cultural, lexicographic and computational. It contains overview chapters by leading experts in the field and a series of case studies focusing on a wide range of multiword units: collocations, similes, idioms, routine formulae and recurrent phrases. The volume is an invitation for experienced phraseologists to look at the field with different eyes and a useful introduction for the many researchers who are intrigued by phraseology but need help in finding their way in this rich but complex domain. |
