fee [fi:](a) (for doctor, lawyer) honoraires mpl(b) (for speaker, performer) cachet m; (retainer → for company director) jetons mpl de présence; (for private tutor) appointements mpl; (for translator) tarif m; (for agency) commission f; (for private school) frais mpl de scolarité;∎ (transfer) fee (of footballer) indemnité f de transfert;∎ is there a fee for joining? est-ce que l'inscription est payante?;∎ for a small fee pour une somme modique;∎ humorous could you post that letter for me? - OK, for a small fee tu peux poster cette lettre pour moi? - d'accord, ça sera 100 balles∎ property held in fee simple propriété f inconditionnelleⓘ Fee fie fo fum Cette formule vient du conte de fées anglais Jack and the Beanstalk ("Jack et le haricot magique") dans lequel un ogre à la poursuite du jeune Jack déclare Fee fie fo fum, I smell the blood of an Englishman, be he alive or be he dead, I'll crush his bones to make my bread ("Fee fie fo fum, je sens le sang d'un Anglais, qu'il soit mort ou vif, je lui broierai les os pour en faire de la farine pour mon pain"). Ces mots n'ont aucune signification particulière mais on les utilise de façon allusive lorsqu'on s'amuse à imiter un ogre, ou bien à propos d'une personne agressive ou coléreuse. On pourra dire par exemple he can't go around fee-fie-fo-fumming and shouting at everyone. Sometimes he would do better just to stop and listen ("il ne devrait pas s'énerver comme ça et crier sur tout le monde. Il ferait mieux de se calmer et d'écouter les autres"). -
