25 La date
Les noms de mois et les noms de jours prennent toujours une majuscule en anglais; pour les abréviations des noms de mois et de jours fréquemment utilisées en anglais ⇒ Les mois de l'année et ⇒ Les jours de la semaine.En anglais parlé, on utilise presque toujours le nombre ordinal (par ex. fifth et non five) pour indiquer le jour du mois; pour les abréviations des nombres ordinaux ⇒ Les nombres.En anglais, il y a quatre façons d’écrire la date, et trois façons de la dire: ces options sont toutes indiquées pour la première date du tableau suivant. Pour écrire la date, les deux premières façons (May 1st ou May 1) sont acceptées dans tous les pays anglophones. Dans le tableau on utilisera indifféremment l’une ou l’autre de ces deux formes.Pour dire la date, la première des formes données (May the first) est acceptée partout,et c’est cette forme qu’on utilisera dans le tableau. Les deux autres ne sont pas aussi répandues.* L’anglais britannique, comme le français, place le chiffre du jour avant celui du mois; l’anglais américain commence par le chiffre du mois.† AD signifie anno domini (l’année de notre Seigneur).‡ BC signifie before Christ ( avant Jésus-Christ).§ Noter que l’anglais utilise les chiffres arabes pour les siècles.Quel jour?le combien sommes-nous aujourd’hui?= what’s the date today?nous sommes le 10= it’s the tenthnous sommes le lundi 10= it’s Monday 10th ( dire Monday the tenth)nous sommes le 10 mai= it’s May 10 ( dire it’s the tenth of May)Pour indiquer la date à laquelle il s’est passéou se passera quelque chose, l’anglais utilise normalement la préposition on devant le quantième du mois.on se voit le 10= see you on the 10thc’est arrivé le 10= it happened on the 10thc’est arrivé le 10 décembre= it happened on 10th December ( dire the tenth of December)le 10 de chaque mois= on the 10th of every monthL’anglais emploie on même en début de phrase.le lundi 5 mai, il atteignit Tombouctou= on Monday May 5, he reached TimbuktuMais on peut aussi utiliser d’autres prépositions:à partir du 10= from the 10th onwardsjusqu’au 10= till ou until the 10thattendez le 10= wait till the 10thavant le 10 mai= before May 10 ( dire before May the tenth)aux environs du 10 mai= around 10 May ( dire around the tenth of May)du 10 au 16 mai= from 10th to 16th May (GB) ( dire from the tenth to the sixteenth of May) ou from 10th through 16th May (US) ( dire from the tenth through the sixteenth of May)Devant les noms de mois et les chiffres des années et des siècles, l’anglais utilise normalement in.en mai= in Mayje suis né en mai 1914= I was born in May 1914en 1945= in 1945il est mort en 1616= he died in 1616Shakespeare (1564-1616)= Shakespeare (1564-1616) ( dire Shakespeare fifteen sixty-four to sixteen sixteen) ou Shakespeare, b. 1564-d. 1616 ( dire Shakespeare born in fifteen sixty-four and died in sixteen sixteen)la révolution de 1789= the 1789 revolutionles émeutes de 68= the riots of ‘68 ( dire of sixty-eight)en mai 45= in May ‘45 ( dire in May forty-five)dans les années 50= in the fifties ou in the 1950s ( dire in the nineteen fifties)au début des années 50= in the early fiftiesà la fin des années 50= in the late fiftiesau XVIIe siècle= in the 17th century ( dire in the seventeenth century)au début du XIIe siècle= in the early twelfth centuryà la fin du XIIe siècle= in the late twelfth centuryLe mot century ne peut pas être omis en anglais:à partir du XIIe= from the 12th century onwards ( dire from the twelfth century onwards)les romanciers du XIXe= 19th-century novelists ( dire nineteenth century novelists) -

38 EDGE
Basé sur la norme GSM (global system for mobile communications), le standard EDGE (enhanced data for GSM evolution) est un standard de téléphonie mobile plus rapide que le standard GPRS (general packet radio service). Il s’agit d’un standard intermédiaire destiné à assurer la transition entre la téléphonie mobile de 2e génération (2G), qui utilise le GPRS, et la téléphonie mobile de 3e génération (3G), qui utilise le standard 3GSM. Considéré donc comme un standard 2,5G (2e génération et demie), EDGE délivre les données numériques (voix, texte, multimédia et vidéo) avec un débit théorique de 240 Kbps (kilobits par seconde), et un débit effectif de 130 Kbps, qui passera ensuite à 384 Kbps. La téléphonie 3G se généralise en 2006.
