- "In the full countryside" means "In the middle of nowhere"? Drunken Skunk (talk) 21:11, 28 December 2018 (UTC)
- cambrousse doesn't just mean "countryside", it means "the middle of nowhere" ("c'est la cambrousse, ici !"). As for plein, see sense 5 ("en plein centre", "en plein milieu", "en plein cœur", "en pleine mer", "en plein désert", "en pleine campagne", "en plein match", "en plein concert", etc.) Per utramque cavernam
- Would the backwoods be a good translation of cambrousse? One of the quotations at middle of nowhere puts us en pleine mer, but I think cambrousse implies that we remain on land. --Lambiam 15:31, 29 December 2018 (UTC)
- Yes, I think so. Added. Per utramque cavernam 14:41, 31 December 2018 (UTC)
