Bonjour, :) Je me démande comment prononcez-vous les chifres. Quand j'apprenais français à l'école nous avons été enseignés à les prononcer avec toutes les désinences, par exemple : cinq avec q six avec s sept avec t huit avec t dix avec s vingt avec t Maintenat, quand je parfois écoute radio...

Bonjour! J'ai trouvé la graphie "ving-sept" dans un texte critique, s'agit-il d'une erreur ou d'une variante? Est-ce qu'on écrivait ainsi il y a 200 ans? Le texte fait référence aux variantes d'un poème populaire du XVIII-ème siècle. Merci!
Hello guys! I am making a contract paper. In the paper, I have to mention the price validity. If the price valid is September, do I have to use Until or By ? For example, Validity : Until the end of September / Validity : By the end of September Please let me know the proper usage.
Cela dit, je dirais à la rigueur vingt-quatre sept, comme on dit en anglais twenty-four seven, et non pas vingt-quatre sur sept. C'est d'ailleurs ce qui est écrit dans le Wiktionnaire : 24/7 \vɛ̃t.katʁ sɛt\ Last edited:
Hi, I've just come across a phrasing that is novel for me. I think this is an AE/BE difference, but would like to be more certain. Example usage: "Monthly Creutzfeldt Jakob Disease Statistics, as at Sept 2005, UK" I also understand that this phrasing is common in financial reports...
e+consonne+consonne se prononce /è/ : escargot, perdu, veste, secte, antenne, segment, celte, belle, dilemme, sept, tresse, espace. Il y a des exceptions avec les mots contenant em/ en, issus de verbes tels que : emménager, emmêler, embarquer, ennui ou le em/en se prononce /an/ comme dans "le vent", ou temps, serp en t, etc.
Whereas "marked with" is more likely to refer to "soiled with" or "polluted with". "The birthday was wild fun, marked by cheering and playfulness and the host singing a tribute to her mother." "The birthday was disappointing, marked with some fights and the kitchen catching fire." The latter describes the specific markings.
The difference lies in the essence of the definition. When defining a word using 'marked by', it means that the word describes some quality with a certain special characteristic, whereas using 'having' implies that the word principally describes such a special characteristic. Thus in your example of 'a calm demeanor', the word whose definition contains 'marked by' could refer to a certain ...
Good discussion. I would add that "marked by" or "characterized by" can apply to person, place or thing; whereas "given to" applies only to sentient beings—entities who can be said to have preferences or proclivities.
0 I always thought of "red-marked copy" as a standard way of referring to a draft text in which the changes from a previous draft are highlighted.
I have heard "marked" pronounced with 2 syllables like "mar-ked" but online dictionaries show only the 1-syllable pronunciation. When should it be pronounced with 2, and is it a mistake to use swap their use?

Here, with more generic examples, there does indeed seem to be a disfavouring of commonplace, everyday examples. So a broad-brush answer to "Is the fixed phrase 'many a [singular noun]' marked for register?" will be inadequate. The answer depends to a considerable extent on what the singular noun [phrase] actually is.
What is the origin of 'many a [singular noun]'? And is it marked for ...
A stretch of time can be marked by ongoing trends or conflicts, say, and a point in time can mark the occasion when something takes place. 14th century England was marked by the plague.
Would "the 411" have been marked as Black slang in the '90s?
