3 never
❢ When never is used to modify a verb ( she never wears a hat, I've never seen him) it is translated ne…jamais in French ; ne comes before the verb, and before the auxiliary in compound tenses, and jamais comes after the verb or auxiliary: elle ne porte jamais de chapeau, je ne l'ai jamais vu.When never is used without a verb, it is translated by jamais alone: ‘admit it!’-‘never!’ = ‘avoue-le!’-‘jamais’.For examples and particular usages, see the entry below. adv1 ( not ever) I never go to London je ne vais jamais à Londres ; he will never forget it il ne l'oubliera jamais ; she never says anything elle ne dit jamais rien ; I never work on Saturdays je ne travaille jamais le samedi ; I've never known him to be late ce n'est pas le genre à être en retard ; I've never seen such a mess je n'ai jamais vu un désordre pareil ; never have I seen such poverty je n'ai jamais vu une telle pauvreté ; ‘have you ever been to Paris?’-‘never’ ‘as-tu déjà visité Paris?’-‘jamais’ ; it's now or never c'est le moment ou jamais ; never again plus jamais ; never before has the danger been so great le danger n'a jamais été aussi grand ; never in all my life ou born days jamais de la vie ; never ever lie to me again! ne me mens plus jamais! ; he never ever drinks alcohol il ne boit absolument jamais d'alcool ; never one to refuse a free meal, he agreed il a accepté parce qu'il ne dit jamais non à un repas gratuit ; never a day passes but he phones me pas un jour ne passe sans qu'il me téléphone ; better late than never mieux vaut tard que jamais ; you never know on ne sait jamais ;2 ( as an emphatic negative) he never said a word il n'a rien dit ; I never knew that je ne le savais pas ; he never so much as apologized il ne s'est même pas excusé ; Bob, never a strong swimmer, tired quickly Bob, qui n'a jamais été un bon nageur, s'est vite fatigué ; she mustn't catch you crying! that would never do il ne faut surtout pas qu'elle te voie pleurer ; ⇒ fear, mind ;3 (expressing surprise, shock) you're never 40!

GB ne me dis pas que tu l'as cassé! ; never! pas possible! ; ‘I punched him’-‘you never (did) ○ !’ GB ‘je lui ai donné un coup de poing’-‘c'est pas vrai ○ !’ ; well I never (did)! ça par exemple! -

Aujourd'hui cette formule est davantage associée aux personnages de rebelles qu'incarnaient James Dean et d'autres jeunes acteurs des années 50 et 60, et à la vie trépidante qu'ils menaient dans la réalité. Cette formule est généralement utilisée dans sa version tronquée ( live fast and die young) pour faire référence à un style de vie débridé. On dira par exemple I don't like these modern pop stars and their live fast, die young attitude ("je n'aime pas les vedettes de la musique pop d'aujourd'hui qui ne pensent qu'à s'amuser sans jamais penser aux conséquences").Ⅱ.live2 [laɪv](a) (alive → animal, person) vivant;∎ the live weight of the animal le poids de l'animal sur pied;∎ they feed the snakes on live mice ils nourrissent les serpents de souris vivantes;∎ familiar a real live cowboy un cow-boy, un vrai de vrai∎ live pictures from Mars des images en direct de Mars;∎ Sinatra live at the Palladium Sinatra en concert au Palladium;∎ recorded before a live audience enregistré en public(e) (unexploded) non explosé(f) (still burning → coals, embers) ardent(g) (not extinct → volcano) actif(h) (controversial) controversé;∎ a live issue un sujet controversé2 adverben direct;∎ to perform live (singer, group) chanter en direct;∎ they've never performed live ils n'ont jamais fait de scène;∎ the match can be seen/is going out live at 3.30 p.m. on peut suivre le match/le match est diffusé en direct à 15 heures 30;∎ the show comes live from New York City le spectacle nous arrive en direct de New York►► live ammunition balles fpl réelles;Technology live axle essieu m moteur, pont m;live births naissances fpl viables;Computing live cam caméra f Internet;Electricity live circuit circuit m alimenté ou sous tension;live entertainment spectacle m; (broadcast) spectacles mpl en direct;∎ nobody goes to see live entertainment any more plus personne ne va au spectacle de nos jours;∎ the theatre and other forms of live entertainment le théâtre et autres formes de divertissement;live music musique f live;live oak chêne m vert;live recording enregistrement m live ou public;Electricity live wire fil m sous tension;Cookery live yoghurt yaourt m actif
