  • 22 The human body

    When it is clear who owns the part of the body mentioned, French tends to use the definite article where English uses a possessive adjective:
    he raised his hand
    = il a levé la main
    she closed her eyes
    = elle a fermé les yeux
    Note, for instance, the use of la and mon here:
    she ran her hand over my forehead
    = elle a passé la main sur mon front
    For expressions such as he hurt his foot or she hit her head on the beam, where the owner of the body part is the subject of the verb, i.e. the person doing the action, use a reflexive verb in French:
    she has broken her leg
    = elle s’est cassé la jambe
    ( literally she has broken to herself the leg - there is no past participle agreement because the preceding reflexive pronoun se is the indirect object).
    he was rubbing his hands
    = il se frottait les mains
    she was holding her head
    = elle se tenait la tête
    Note also the following:
    she broke his leg
    = elle lui a cassé la jambe
    ( literally she broke to him the leg)
    the stone split his lip
    = le caillou lui a fendu la lèvre
    ( literally the stone split to him the lip)
    Describing people
    For ways of saying how tall someone isLength measurement ; of stating someone’s weightWeight measurement ; and of talking about the colour of hair and eyesColours.
    Here are some ways of describing people in French:
    his hair is long
    = il a les cheveux longs
    he has long hair
    = il a les cheveux longs
    a boy with long hair
    = un garçon aux cheveux longs
    a long-haired boy
    = un garçon aux cheveux longs
    the boy with long hair
    = le garçon aux cheveux longs
    her eyes are blue
    = elle a les yeux bleus
    she has blue eyes
    = elle a les yeux bleus
    she is blue-eyed
    = elle a les yeux bleus
    the girl with blue eyes
    = la fille aux yeux bleus
    a blue-eyed girl
    = une fille aux yeux bleus
    his nose is red

    he has a red nose
    = il a le nez rouge
    a man with a red nose

    the man with the broken leg

  • 23 French provinces and regions

    Both traditional pre-Revolution regions and modern administrative regions usually take the definite article as in l’Alsace, la Champagne etc.:
    I like Alsace
    = j’aime l’Alsace
    Champagne is beautiful
    = la Champagne est belle
    For names which have a compound form, such as Midi-Pyrénées or Rhône-Alpes, it is safer to include the words la région:
    do you know Midi-Pyrénées?
    = connaissez-vous la région Midi-Pyrénées?
    In, to and from somewhere
    There are certain general principles regarding names of French provinces and regions. However, usage is sometimes uncertain ; doubtful items should be checked in the dictionary.
    For in and to, with feminine names and with masculine ones beginning with a vowel, use en without the definite article:
    to live in Burgundy
    = vivre en Bourgogne
    to go to Burgundy
    = aller en Bourgogne
    to live in Anjou
    = vivre en Anjou
    to go to Anjou
    = aller en Anjou
    For in and to with masculine names beginning with a consonant, use dans le:
    to live in the Berry
    = vivre dans le Berry
    to go to the Berry
    = aller dans le Berry
    For from with feminine names and with masculine ones beginning with a vowel, use de without the definite article:
    to come from Burgundy
    = venir de Bourgogne
    to come from Anjou
    = venir d’Anjou
    For from with masculine names beginning with a consonant, use du:
    to come from the Berry
    = venir du Berry
    Regional adjectives
    Related adjectives and nouns exist for most of the names of provinces and regions. Here is a list of the commonest:
    an Alsace accent
    = un accent alsacien
    Alsace costume
    = le costume alsacien
    the Alsace countryside
    = les paysages alsaciens
    Alsace traditions
    = les traditions alsaciennes
    Alsace villages
    = les villages alsaciens
    These words can also be used as nouns, meaning a person from X ; in this case they are written with a capital letter:
    a person from Alsace
    = un Alsacien
    an Alsace woman
    = une Alsacienne
    the people of Alsace
    = les Alsaciens mpl

  • 34 Sá da Bandeira, the Marquis of

    (1795-1876)
       Famous 19th-century career soldier turned politician, colonial reformer and planner, and statesman. Bernardo de Sá Nogueira de Figueiredo, later named the Marquis of Sá da Bandeira, was a soldier from the young age of 15 who fought against the armies of Napoleon in the Peninsular Wars. The historian Alexandre Herculano described him as "the most illustrious Portuguese of his century." Among the people, he was nicknamed "Sá-the one-handed or "one-armed," since he had lost his right arm in battle. Trained in engineering and mathematics, and with residence abroad, he first made a reputation as an outstanding military leader in the campaigns against the French in Portugal (1811) and in the civil wars of 1828-34.
       Devoted to the cause of King Pedro IV of maintaining Pedro's young daughter, Maria da Glória, on Portugal's throne, Sá da Bandei-ra's image and style seemed to be in conflict with those of a general more typical of the age of romanticism. Spare in body, methodical and frugal, and serene in spirit, he achieved the highest offices in government, following the triumph of the cause of constitutional monarchy by 1834. Concerned with Portugal's overseas empire, severely weakened by the loss of Brazil in 1822, Sá da Bandeira relentlessly pursued colonial reform plans and efforts to create for Portugal "another Brazil in Africa." Active in politics into his old age, in the 1870s, he worked to bring about reforms of the colonial economy, to move from an economy based on slave trade and slavery to one based on legitimate trade and industry, especially in Angola and Mozambique. This soldier and politician became, in effect, the heart and soul of Portugal's first modern colonial movement, 1835-75.

  • 35 beat it on the hoof

    жарг.
    (beat it on the hoof (тж. beat или pad the hoof; уст. plod away on the hoof))
    идти пешком, на своих (на) двоих

    At length, Charley Bates expressed his opinion that it was time to pad the hoof. This, it occurred to Oliver, must be French for going out; for directly afterwards the Dodger and Charley, and the two young ladies, went away together... (Ch. Dickens, ‘Oliver Twist’, ch. IX) — Наконец Чарли Бейтс заявил, что пора, по его мнению, "поразмять копыта". Оливер решил, что это, вероятно, французское выражение, означающее прогуляться, так как немедленно вслед за этим Плут, Чарли и обе молодые девицы ушли все вместе...

    ...nothing remained for thousands of them but to "pad the hoof" back to London. (J. London, ‘The People of the Abyss’, ch. XII) —...для тысяч людей не оставалось ничего другого, как "на своих двоих" отправиться обратно в Лондон.
