  • new vocabulary

  • I've been reading a book for children and found o ut I am terrible with vocabulary.
  • Here some sentences I need help with : To make an appalling row means "faire un bruit de tous les diables" in other words being very noisy.
  • To show a sly grin would means you have something, not very good in mind, while smiling in French un sourire narquois.
  • This one I do not understand at all : "Billy's every word plumed the air like smoke".
  • For the context poor Billy is looking at a person eating non cooked pork (I spare you the full description) and feels squeamish.
  • A friend tells him he is squeamish and Billy says he is not as he is good hunting, fishing, gutting fish and butchering steers, but he prefers cooked meat.
  • By the way I do not get the difference between pig, pork and hog.
  • Is it like in French Pig (le cochon) is the leaving animal, pork (le porc) the one we eat and hog would be... wild ?
  • Thanks for your help.
