Examples from texts

As was the tradition, Hassan and I used to stay up late, our feet tucked under the kursi, while Ali tossed apple skin into the stove and told us ancient tales of sultans and thieves to pass that longest of nights.
Respectueux des traditions, Hassan et moi veillions tard ce soir-là, les pieds bien au chaud sous le kursi, pendant qu'Ali jetait des pelures de pommes dans le poêle en nous racontant d'anciennes histoires de sultans et de voleurs.

Her perfect coolness in adjusting her stays and fastening up her dress again embarrassed the young man.
Sa tranquillité parfaite à ôter son corset et à rattacher sa robe, gêna le jeune homme.

She made a vigorous resistance to age, which was bringing flesh and wrinkles: smeared with unguents and pomades, laced up in stays that choked the breath out of her, she fancied herself growing young again.
Elle luttait âprement contre l’âge qui l’engraissait et la ridait; frottée d’onguents et d’huiles de toilette, sanglée dans des corsets qui l’étouffaient, elle s’imaginait rajeunir.
