"...has one of these four"

what's the full sentence?

[gusty palm]

Oh I meant à not a

[charred prism]

well... for the literal translation, i think it would be "...to/at one of these four"

but again, it would be better to have the full sentence

[languid flint]

to one of these four [days]

that is the literal translation

and for the meaning, it means "see you"

[nocturne grove]

@gusty palm
un de ces quatre
sooner or later; one day or another; one of these days; soon; at one moment or another

it is a fairly common expression.

for example, « tu vas te prendre une baffe un de ces quatre, tu les sais, hein? »

"your gonna get a slap one of these days, you know"

à un de ces quatre
à un de ces prochains jours
à bientôt
à la prochaine
etc.

see you (soon, in the next few days, the next time), etc.

[charred prism]

ah...

interesting
