Trier ses poubelles
And then trier ses déchets
Donc poubelle = déchets ?

[silver atlas]

les poubelles = the trash cans outside

la poubelle = the trash bin in the house

[echo matrix]

What is the difference then between poubelle et bac?

[silver atlas]

bac ??

I don't say bac personally

bac is just a box

without an upper face

idk how to say it

[manic tulip]

the little ones u put in your room?

[silver atlas]

Not necessarily little ones

[echo matrix]

How do I translate this? Pour les poubelles.. = for the trashcans outside?

This is where I found bacs

[silver atlas]

I think so yes

Yeah some people say bacs de tri, but I find it dumb, just say poubelle like everybody

[echo matrix]

Oh, I didn't know that

Made me think poubelle is actually the trash itself
