Examples from texts

She took her distaff', seated herself in front of the hearth, where a cricket was singing, and the ivory spindle spun round rapidly between her fingers.
Elle prit sa quenouille, s’assit devant l’âtre où chantait le grillon, et le fuseau d’ivoire tourna rapidement entre ses doigts.

The wood was not solid, but only a ring, and inside was an oval of green turf, for all the world like a big cricket-field.
Au lieu d'être massif, le bois formait un simple anneau, à l'intérieur duquel s'étendait un ovale de gazon vert, qui ressemblait fort à un vaste terrain de cricket.

In the sunshine of air and of earth we hear the bees, as they work and make music (in deference to the poets), and the cricket which, in defiance of the fable, sings with no humility and fills Space by himself.
On entend dans le soleil de l’air et dans le soleil de la terre, les abeilles qui travaillent musicalement, en conformité avec les poésies, et le grillon qui, malgré les fables, chante sans modestie et remplit à lui seul tout l’espace.

Also I got the morning's papers, with news about starters for the Derby and the beginning of the cricket season, and some paragraphs about how Balkan affairs were settling down and a British squadron was going to Kiel.
Par la même occasion je pris les journaux du matin, qui donnaient les pronostics pour le Derby et les premières nouvelles de la saison de cricket, plus quelques entrefilets sur les affaires balkaniques et sur la visite à Kiel de l'escadre anglaise.

But here were two guileless citizens taking their innocuous exercise, and soon about to go indoors to a humdrum dinner, where they would talk of market prices and the last cricket scores and the gossip of their native Surbiton.
Mais ces deux impeccables citoyens qui prenaient leur inoffensif divertissement, et s'apprêtaient à se mettre à table pour dîner en causant platement Bourse, cricket et ragots de leur Surbiton natal!

Henceforth the purple corollas greeted Simplice every morning when he rose; the green leaf related to him the tittle-tattle of the night, the cricket confided to him in a whisper that he was madly in love with the violet.
Dès lors, chaque matin, les corolles empourprées saluaient Simplice à son lever ; la feuille verte lui contait les cancans de la nuit, le grillon lui confiait tout bas qu’il était amoureux fou de la violette.

Because Blanchard's Cricket Frogs have not been reported at Point Pelee since 1920, and have been reported from only one location on Pelee Island since 1977, they were designated as endangered in 1990.
Puisqu'on n'a signalé aucune Rainette grillon de Blanchard à la pointe Pelée depuis 1920 et que l'on n'en a signalé qu'en un endroit de l'île Pelée depuis 1977, ces grenouilles ont été désignées en danger en 1990.

At this moment, when I stood there for the first time, the mills upon the brooksides gave a voice to the quivering valley; the poplars were laughing as they swayed; not a cloud was in the sky; the birds sang, the crickets chirped,-- all was melody.
En ce moment, les moulins situés sur les chutes de l’Indre donnaient une voix à cette vallée frémissante, les peupliers se balançaient en riant, pas un nuage au ciel, les oiseaux chantaient, les cigales criaient, tout y était mélodie.

In the distance the crickets chirped in the meadows of Sainte-Claire, and at their feet the ripples of the Viorne sounded like lovers' whispers – like the soft cooing of humid lips.
Au loin, les grillons chantaient dans les prés Sainte-Claire, et la Viorne avait à leurs pieds des voix chuchotantes d’amoureux, des bruits adoucis de lèvres humides.

There was no living thing to be seen save the brown and hideous lizard, the rattlesnake, and the desert crickets that crawled in myriads along the parched ground, and were crunched under the hoofs of our animals.
Aucun Être vivant ne se montrait, à l'exception du hideux lézard, du serpent à sonnettes et des grillons du désert, qui rampaient sur le sol dur, par myriades, et que nos chevaux écrasaient sous leurs pieds.
