scarlet ['skɑ:lət]2 nounécarlate f►► Medicine scarlet fever (UNCOUNT) scarlatine f;Ornithology scarlet ibis ibis m rouge;Botany scarlet pimpernel mouron m rouge;Ornithology scarlet tanager tangara m rouge;ⓘ The Scarlet Pimpernel Le Mouron rouge est le titre français du roman de la Baronne Orczy The Scarlet Pimpernel (1905), ainsi que le surnom de Sir Percy Blakeney, qui en est le personnage principal. L'histoire se déroule pendant la Révolution française et Blakeney, qui est passé maître dans l'art du déguisement, aide des membres de l'aristocratie française à s'enfuir en Angleterre. Il parvient toujours à échapper à ses poursuivants, comme en témoigne le passage suivant: They seek him here, they seek him there, Those Frenchies seek him everywhere, Is he in Heaven or is he in Hell?, That damned elusive pimpernel ("les Français le cherchent partout mais jamais ne l'attrapent, est-il au ciel ou en enfer, ce sacré mouron rouge?"). Aujourd'hui on utilise cette citation (ou simplement le terme Scarlet Pimpernel) sur le ton de la plaisanterie à propos de quelqu'un d'introuvable ou avec qui il est particulièrement difficile d'entrer en contact. -
