Thank you very much indeed. However it's a pity you can't tell me this phrase in French, for instance (can you?), let alone Ukrainian or Russian. It'd give me a clearer idea of its meaning for translation. |
'... qui a toutes les résonances du mot
excès, si clairement visible dans l'étymologie de ce mot-ci.'
The French needs checking by a native speaker though.
