Please be patient

Our volunteers look into many questions every day; sometimes it takes them a little while to answer.

Pro tip: you can rename the thread title with `.tr <thread name>`

Make it descriptive, including relevant context, but also to the point. This way you improve your chances of getting a more relevant and specific answer.

So the adjective is put first, right?

C'est la pleine lune and not la lune pleine

#

never heard gibbeuse but apparently it's the right terminology

quick parrot Jan 13, 2025, 2:08 AM

#

honestly I don't know the moon phases in English either

uneven lotus Jan 13, 2025, 2:09 AM

#

yeah, with "pleine lune" the adjective goes first

vocal tangle Jan 13, 2025, 2:09 AM

#

Thx guys

#

just so you know, if you want to find a word in french, the first place you can look is an online dictionary like wordreference, and for something like this you can simply google moon phases in french

#

pearl scaffold just so you know, if you want to find a word in french, the first place you can ...

I know, I know

#

I just wanted to ask the question here

pearl scaffold Jan 13, 2025, 2:10 AM

#

it's not problem to ask here, but i just don't want you to think you either have to google translate or ask someone

vocal tangle Jan 13, 2025, 2:10 AM

#

Apologies if it's an inconvenient

pearl scaffold Jan 13, 2025, 2:10 AM

#

not a problem, people are happy to help. there are just internet resources besides google translate

#

uneven lotus never heard gibbeuse but apparently it's the right terminology

oddly enough gibbous seems like a relatively known word in English

#

but maybe thats me im not sure

#

it's not as common as the rest I guess

pearl scaffold Jan 13, 2025, 2:39 AM

#

yeah, i feel like moon terms are pretty common in english

#

we even say "once in a blue moon"

silent nacelle Jan 13, 2025, 2:49 AM

#

gibbous isn't a super common one but maybe we talk about it more

#

idk

pearl scaffold Jan 13, 2025, 3:48 AM

#

well at least in the states i feel like we learn the moon phases in school

#

so it's not commonly used, but understood by most people

silent nacelle Jan 13, 2025, 3:53 AM

#

Yeah

pearl scaffold Jan 13, 2025, 3:53 AM

#

wonder if the same is true in france

uneven lotus Jan 13, 2025, 3:54 AM

#

probably at some point. I mean all the other phases are pretty well known. It might just be either "gibbeuse" that is less so, or me who forgot
