In French (which matters in this particular case since all actors are French) there is no confusion between "logiciel libre" and "logiciel gratuit" though. There isn't a word that can mean both. I think these days i

There are various accents in French-speaking Switzerland as well as French-speaking Belgium and I assume local speakers can generally recognise them, but in general French just diverges much less than German (or Dutch to talk about what I k

Don't read too much into this dictionary though, I spent a year there and not once did anyone call a CEA worker a "shadock". Many of these words are indeed used, but it's akin to company slang more than a language variet

We put our compost bag in the bottom compartment of the fridge. It doesn't smell or leak there and for especially smelly things, we first wrap them in a smaller compostable bag before putting that in the city-provided bag.
