Thierry Lotte : j\'avais déjà fourni cette réponse - feuilles de collard - et ce n\'est qu\'après en \"remontant\" la page, j\'ai mis mon \"disagree\"- cela ne se voulait pas déplaisant. Désolé si cela n\'a pas été bien perçu - c\'était pas si facile que ça :)

Dear Lydia,

Here's a trick, so you can find these terms yourself:

Go to Google (www.google.com), and enter the term you are looking for, PLUS "avec." This should take you to bilingual French/English sites. If you click on the "cached" link, instead of the main one, you will find your word highlighted for you, which will make it easier to locate on the page. Then all you have to do is look around for the French co-occurence of your term.

How come this works? The French word "avec" appears frequently in French texts, and not in much of anything else. There are a lot of sites on the Internet that are bilingual, and "avec" plus the word in English gets you to them even faster than going through Google's "advanced search" function, to limit the search to French with the term in English entered.

Happy hunting and cooking.

Are you sure for "bananes plantains", "plantain" plural ?

Just grammar...
