| | French translation:parachuter | Explanation:
"parachuter CHEZ des amis", mais ce n'est pas une expression correcte en français. On dira plutôt "débarquer chez des amis (à l'improviste)"
En revanche, on peut dire qu'un homme politique, par exemple, a été "parachuté" (lors d'élections) pour se faire élire dans une région qu'il n'habite pas.
