What they most fear is that they may carry a scent of the schools about with them, so they put on extremely Parisian airs, venture on somersaults and slang, and assume all the grace of dancing bears in their eager desire to please.Leur grande crainte est de sentir l’École, et ils sont très parisiens, ils risquent la culbute et l’argot, font des grâces de jeunes ours savants, dévorés du désir de plaire.Zola, Emile / The Three Cities - ParisZola, Emile / Les Trois Villes - ParisLes Trois Villes - ParisZola, EmileThe Three Cities - ParisZola, Emile

"It's nothing," says he, coming back; "it's the good man slanging the woman because she doesn't know how to do things, he says, because she's made the mustard in a tumbler, and he never heard of such a thing, he says."– C’est rien, dit-il en revenant.
