Help would be appreciated.
1.Derived from Latin, through Old fRench meaning 'be necessary, what legal word means articles such as fallen timber that tenants are legally permitted to remove from their landlord's estate for purposes of making repairs, etc.?
2. In Ballet, what French word is applied to any dancer who performs in group numbers but not as a solo dancer? (the compiler will accept the male or female version of this word!). I can't find a name for an individual, only Corps de Ballet.
Many thanks.
Coryphée may be the word you need for the second question.
I have no idea about the first question, but you might try posting that on the Legal forum and see if any of our a2k legal experts know that one.
Hi mac 11, thank you very much for your answers, appreciated, Coryphee I would neve have found. Tryagain's answer of estovers is the correct one.
Hello Tryagain, Many thanks for your answer. Greatly appreciated.
