* * *♦ nm1. [sonido] sound;se escuchaba el son de una gaita the sound of bagpipes could be heard;bailar al son que tocan: ése baila al son que le tocan los de arriba he does whatever his bosses tell him to do2. [canción y baile] = Cuban song and dance of African origin♦ en son de loc preplo dijo en son de burla/disculpa she said it as a taunt/by way of an apology;venir en son de paz to come in peace;venir en son de guerra to come with warlike intentionsSONThe Cuban music known as son evolved from a fusion of African and Spanish musical influences in the late 19th century, and is the basis of much of today's Caribbean music, such as salsa or mambo. Before the 1920s, when it became widely popular, son was mostly enjoyed by the lower classes and was once even banned for being immoral. A son group usually consists of the “tres” (a double-stringed guitar), bongos, “claves” or “palos” (a pair of sticks which are struck together to give a beat), a normal guitar, a bass guitar and voice, although there are many variations. Among the greatest exponents of son were Benny Moré (1919-63) and Arsenio Rodríguez (1911-72).* * *I m sound;al son de to the sound of;en son de broma jokingly;en son de paz in peaceII vb → ser* * *son nm1) : soundal son de la trompeta: at the sound of the trumpet2) : news, rumor3)en son de : as, in the manner of, by way ofen son de broma: as a jokeen son de paz: in peace -
18 means-test
∎ to means-test sb = faire une enquête sur les revenus de quelqu'un avant de lui accorder une aide sociale;∎ all applicants are means-tested tous les candidats font l'objet d'une enquête sur leurs revenusEven though vast chunks of state spending - from university grants to income support - are means-tested, the term still carries a real stigma, especially for pensioners. The universal principle - embodied in the welfare state through the state pension, child benefit and NHS - has a binding effect. Poor people feel they are getting something as of right and rich people get something back for their taxes, discouraging them from opting out altogether.
