French Idioms and Proverbs - A Companion to Deshumbert's "Dictionary of Difficulties"

In this edition I have endeavoured to keep down additions as much as possible, so as not to overload the book; but I have not been sparing in adding cross-references (especially in the Index) and quotations from standard authors. These quotations seldom give the first occasion on which a proverb has been used, as in most cases it is impossible to find it. I have placed an asterisk before all recognised proverbs; these will serve as a first course for those students who do not wish to read through the whole book at once. In a few cases I have added explanations of English proverbs; during the eleven years I have been using the book I have frequently found that pupils were, for instance, as ignorant of to bell the cat as they were of attacher le grelot. I must add a warning to students who use the book when translating into French. They must not use expressions marked familiar or popular except when writing in a familiar or low-class style. I have included these forms, because they are often heard in conversation, but they are seldom met with in serious French literature. A few blank pages have been added at the end for additions. Accents have been placed on capitals[viii] to aid the student; they are usually omitted in French printing. ......Buy Now (To Read More)
