French feminine plural in English[edit]
Gaskell, writing in English (but on the theme of France), uses the French feminine plural in English (no italics) — at least, I assume this is the adjective and not the noun plural:
- 1861, Elizabeth Gaskell, The Grey Woman
- We had discussed the route which it would be well for us to take while we lay perdues in our loft.
