Élu au début de chaque législature, il n'appartient pas nécessairement au parti au pouvoir, mais il perd son droit de vote et se doit de rester impartial. Au début de chacune de leurs interventions, les députés s'adressent au président de l'assemblée par ces mots: « Mister/Madam Speaker ».Aux États-Unis le président de la Chambre des représentants est le Speaker of the House: il est le chef de file du parti majoritaire et joue le rôle de porte-parole de son parti. Politiquement, il vient en seconde position, après le vice-président des États-Unis, pour remplacer le président en cas de vacance du pouvoir.━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━* * *['spiːkə(r)]1) ( person talking) personne f qui parle; (orator, public speaker) orateur/-trice m/f; ( invited lecturer) conférencier/-ière m/f; ( one of several conference lecturers) intervenant/-e m/f2) ( of foreign language)an Italian/a French speaker — un/-e italophone/francophone mf

Son rôle principal est de veiller au bon déroulement des débats. À l'issue des discussions sur une motion, le Speaker demande aux députés de l'approuver ou de la rejeter. Il ne prend généralement pas part au vote, mais si une motion reçoit autant de Ayes (oui) que de Noes (non), sa voix est prépondérante. Le Speaker représente aussi la Chambre des communes auprès du souverain et de la Chambre des Lords. Aux États-Unis, le Speaker of the House est le président de la Chambre des représentants. Il est élu à ce poste par ses pairs et doit être issu du parti majoritaire. C'est l'un des personnages les plus influents du pays car il vient en deuxième position dans l'ordre de succession à la présidence. ⇒ Congress, division -

See:see cultural note FRONT BENCH in frontSPEAKER En el sistema parlamentario británico el Speaker es la máxima autoridad de la Cámara de los Comunes ( House of Commons) y su misión es presidirla y hacer que se guarde el orden y que se acaten las normas establecidas. Es elegido al comienzo de la legislatura por parlamentarios ( MPs) de todos los partidos y puede pertenecer a cualquiera de ellos. Una vez que toma posesión de su cargo, el Speaker no vota ni toma la palabra (excepto a nivel oficial) y ha de ser totalmente imparcial. Los parlamentarios suelen comenzar sus discursos dirigiéndose al Speaker en vez de a toda la Cámara, como por ejemplo en: Mister/Madam Speaker, I feel very strongly about this.
En Estados Unidos, el Speaker es el encargado de presidir la Cámara de los Representantes ( House of Representatives) y es también el dirigente del partido mayoritario, además de miembro de la Cámara. Es elegido por los miembros de su partido y se encarga de las actas de las sesiones de la Cámara y de actuar como portavoz de su partido. Es uno de los puestos más influyentes del gobierno federal, además de ser el que sigue al Vicepresidente ( Vice-President) en la sucesión a la presidencia.* * *['spiːkər, 'spiːkə(r)]1)a) ( person who speaks)b) ( in public) orador, -dora m,fc) ( of language) hablante mfa native speaker of Spanish, a Spanish native speaker — un hablante nativo de español

Note that names of languages in French are always written with a small letter, not a capital as in English ; also, French almost always uses the definite article with languages, while English does not. In the examples below the name of any language may be substituted for French and français:French is easy= le français est facileI like French= j’aime le françaisto learn French= apprendre le françaisHowever, the article is never used after en:say it in French= dis-le en françaisa book in French= un livre en françaisto translate sth into French= traduire qch en françaisand it may be omitted with parler:to speak French= parler français or parler le françaisWhen French means in French or of the French, it is translated by français:a French expression= une expression françaisethe French language= la langue françaisea French proverb= un proverbe françaisa French word= un mot françaisa French book= un livre en françaisa French broadcast= une émission en françaisWhen French means relating to French or about French, it is translated by de français:a French class= une classe de françaisa French course= un cours de françaisa French dictionary= un dictionnaire de françaisa French teacher= un professeur de françaisbuta French-English dictionary= un dictionnaire français-anglaisSee the dictionary entry for - speaking and speaker for expressions like Japanese-speaking or German speaker. French has special words for some of these expressions:English-speaking= anglophonea French speaker= un/une francophoneNote also that language adjectives like French can also refer to nationality e.g. a French tourist ⇒ Nationalities, or to the country e.g. a French town ⇒ Countries and continents. -
15 Usage note : do
she’s doing her homework= elle fait ses devoirswhat are you doing?= qu’est-ce que tu fais?what has he done with the newspaper?= qu’est-ce qu’il a fait du journal?faire functions in very much the same way as to do does in English and it is safe to assume it will work in the great majority of cases. For the conjugation of the verb faire, see the French verb tables.Grammatical functionsIn questionsIn French there is no use of an auxiliary verb in questions equivalent to the use of do in English.When the subject is a pronoun, the question is formed in French either by inverting the subject and verb and putting a hyphen between the two ( veux-tu?) or by prefacing the subject + verb by est-ce que (literally is it that):do you like Mozart?= aimes-tu Mozart? or est-ce que tu aimes Mozart?did you put the glasses in the cupboard?= as-tu mis les verres dans le placard? or est-ce que tu as mis les verres dans le placard?When the subject is a noun there are again two possibilities:did your sister ring?= est-ce que ta sœur a téléphoné? or ta sœur a-t-elle téléphoné?did Max find his keys?= est-ce que Max a trouvé ses clés? or Max a-t-il trouvé ses clés?In negativesEqually, auxiliaries are not used in negatives in French:I don’t like Mozart= je n’aime pas Mozartyou didn’t feed the cat= tu n’as pas donné à manger au chatdon’t do that!= ne fais pas ça!In emphatic usesThere is no verbal equivalent for the use of do in such expressions as I DO like your dress. A French speaker will find another way, according to the context, of expressing the force of the English do. Here are a few useful examples:I DO like your dress= j’aime beaucoup ta robeI DO hope she remembers= j’espère qu’elle n’oubliera pasI DO think you should see a doctor= je crois vraiment que tu devrais voir un médecinWhen referring back to another verbIn this case the verb to do is not translated at all:I don’t like him any more than you do= je ne l’aime pas plus que toiI live in Oxford and so does Lily= j’habite à Oxford et Lily aussishe gets paid more than I do= elle est payée plus que moiI haven’t written as much as I ought to have done= je n’ai pas écrit autant que j’aurais dû‘I love strawberries’ ‘so do I’= ‘j’adore les fraises’ ‘moi aussi’In polite requestsIn polite requests the phrase je vous en prie can often be used to render the meaning of do:do sit down= asseyez-vous, je vous en priedo have a piece of cake= prenez un morceau de gâteau, je vous en prie‘may I take a peach?’ ‘yes, do’= ‘puis-je prendre une pêche?’ ‘je vous en prie’In imperativesIn French there is no use of an auxiliary verb in imperatives:don’t shut the door= ne ferme pas la portedon’t tell her anything= ne lui dis riendo be quiet!= tais-toi!In tag questionsFrench has no direct equivalent of tag questions like doesn’t he? or didn’t it? There is a general tag question n’est-ce pas? (literally isn’t it so?) which will work in many cases:you like fish, don’t you?= tu aimes le poisson, n’est-ce pas?he lives in London, doesn’t he?= il habite à Londres, n’est-ce pas?However, n’est-ce pas can very rarely be used for positive tag questions and some other way will be found to express the meaning contained in the tag: par hasard can often be useful as a translation:Lola didn’t phone, did she?= Lola n’a pas téléphoné par hasard?Paul doesn’t work here, does he?= Paul ne travaille pas ici par hasard?In many cases the tag is not translated at all and the speaker’s intonation will convey what is implied:you didn’t tidy your room, did you? (i.e. you ought to have done)= tu n’as pas rangé ta chambre?In short answersAgain, there is no direct French equivalent for short answers like yes I do, no he doesn’t etc. Where the answer yes is given to contradict a negative question or statement, the most useful translation is si:‘Marion didn’t say that’ ‘yes she did’= ‘Marion n’a pas dit ça’ ‘si’‘they don’t sell vegetables at the baker’s’ ‘yes they do’= ‘ils ne vendent pas les légumes à la boulangerie’ ‘si’In response to a standard enquiry the tag will not be translated:‘do you like strawberries?’ ‘yes I do’= ‘aimez-vous les fraises?’ ‘oui ’For more examples and particular usages, see the entry do. -
