A little about the most romantic capital of Europe
France has always been famous for its beauty, and the people - for its traditions and sophistication of manners. It was the French who invented neckerchiefs, ballooning, gourmet cuisine and divine desserts. France is the birthplace of sophistication and romanticism. Beautiful French has left its mark on our vocabulary. Madame and Mademoiselle are a general appeal to women, and Monsieur - to men. Depending on age and marital status, people could be treated differently.
Mademoiselle is the appeal
In France, there was always a cult of strict beauty. Men, starting a conversation with a woman, used different appeals, which took into account the age and marital status of the fairer sex.
According to the Big Modern Dictionary of the Russian Language for 2012, the word "mademoiselle" is a form of appeal to a young lady or unmarried woman in France and in other countries. It was respectful and usually served as a prefix to the name or surname of the girl.
How do you spell?
A fair question may arise, how is the word "mademoiselle" spelled? To do this, refer to the dictionaries and reference books. According to the Complete Spelling Dictionary of the Russian Language for 2012, it is correct to write it as "mademoiselle", from the French mademoiselle. But in practice, such a spelling is almost never used, the whole fault can be called the poet Griboedov, who for the first time in his work mentioned the word without the letter "e". Today, "mademoiselle" is a long-established and familiar word in general use. Russians often pronounce it jokingly, or referring to foreign nationals.
