๐ฆโ๏ธ Expression du jour : "Il fait un froid de canard" / It's freezing
๐ VCE French - Useful idiom
๐น Signification : Il fait trรจs froid.
๐น Traduction littรฉrale : "Itโs a duckโs cold"
๐น Origine : Lโexpression vient de la chasse aux canards, qui se fait en hiver quand il fait trรจs froid. Les chasseurs devaient rester immobiles dans le froid dโoรน lโexpression ! The expression comes from duck hunting, which takes place in winter when itโs very cold. Hunters had to stay still in the freezing cold, thatโs where the expression comes from!
โจ Exemple :
ยซ Je suis sorti ce matin, il faisait un froid de canard ! ยป
๐ฏ Astuce VCE : Utiliser des expressions idiomatiques comme celle-ci vous aide ร enrichir vos rรฉdactions et vos oraux !
