17 pot
n. m.1. 'Arse', 'bum', behind. (Few expressions containing the word pot have literal meanings. Most, like se manier le pot: to 'put one's skates on', to hurry up and en avoir plein le pot: to be fed-up, are figurative derivations.)2. Luck, good fortune. Avoir un sacré pot: To have the luck of the devil. Un coup de pot: A lucky break. Manque de pot! Hard cheese! — Hard luck! (There is a strange correlation between sodomy as in se faire casser le pot and good fortune, which would suggest as with cocu (see that word) that sexual favours and good luck are closely intertwined.)3. Drink, alcoholic beverage. (Although some lexicographers describe the drink as being a 'short', the very nature of the straight meaning of the word suggests it is a long drink, i.e. wine or beer. Prendre un pot avec quelqu'un: To have a jar with someone.)4. (Gambling slang): 'Pot', kitty, pool of money staked at cards, etc.5. Faire son pot: To 'make one's pile', to amass a tidy sum of money.6. Payer les pots cassés: To 'carry the can', to pay the consequences (often literally, on the financial plane).8. Pot de yaourt (joc.): Bubble- car. (In the 50s, the most popular bubble-car in France was manufactured by Isetta. These vehicles with their large glass area and striking white colour quickly earned this nickname.)9. Etre sourd comme un pot: To be as deaf as a post.10. Tourner autour du pot: To 'beat about the bush', to tackle a problem or a situation in a dilly-dally manner.11. Etre bête comme un pot: To be 'as thick as two short planks', to be as dumb as they come.12. Ne pas bousculer le pot de fleurs: To 'keep things on an even keel', to 'avoid upsetting the apple-cart', to refrain from causing trouble.13. Ne t'occupe pas du pot! Leave it to me! — Let me worry about it!14. Pot aux roses: Sensitive secret. Découvrir le pot aux roses: To stumble on a bit of scandal. (Because of a possible hiatus, the 't' in pot is pronounced as a liaison in colloquial contexts.) -
