#expression #uitdrukking

Faire long feu : souvent utilisée à tort, cette expression signifie "ne PAS produire l'effet attendu".
Orig. champs de bataille. "Elle a fait long feu" = quand l'amorce (la mèche) des canons se consumait et s'éteignait, SANS produire d'explosion.

#stillgoingstrong I've been so lucky during the lockdown due to the covid-19  : 7 new customers ! They litterally saved me as others had no choice but to close down all activities. It was a hard time for us all, but we managed and will definitely evolve for the better. Thankful for all of you, old and new <3 *** Translations from English & Dutch (Flemish) to French Correction/Edition/Creative writing/Conversation Management/Subtitling in French
