✾ Music 'The Well-Tempered Clavier' Bach 'Le Clavier bien tempéré'

ⓘ Didn't he/she do well? Le jeu télévisé britannique The Generation Game fut présenté pendant de nombreuses années par un nommé Bruce Forsyth. Cette expression ("il/elle s'est bien débrouillé(e), vous ne trouvez pas?") était l'une des petites phrases qu'il employait immanquablement au cours de l'émission. Il utilisait cette formule en s'adressant au public lorsqu'un concurrent venait de terminer une épreuve. Aujourd'hui, on emploie cette expression pour féliciter quelqu'un sur un ton légèrement condescendant.

ⓘ Show me the money Cette phrase (""fais-moi voir l'argent") vient du film américain Jerry Maguire (1996), dans lequel Tom Cruise joue le rôle d'un manager sportif. L'un de ses clients, incarné par Cuba Gooding, prononce ces mots à maintes reprises lors de négociations. On utilise cette phrase de façon allusive en anglais américain dans des contextes similaires, comme dans l'exemple suivant: forget about the free CDs and baseball caps, just show me the money ("les casquettes de base-ball et les CDs gratuits ne m'intéressent pas, parlons argent""), ou bien lorsqu'on réclame une somme due: I won the bet, so show me the money ("j'ai gagné le pari, alors donne-moi mon argent"").
