FRENCH WORD OF THE DAY: Bouder

Bouder: To ignore, to shun, to reject someone.

As seen in: « Que l’on applaudisse ou que l’on dénonce la décision du premier ministre canadien de bouder les Nations unies, les observateurs internationaux s’entendent sur une chose : le silence de Stephen Harper en dit beaucoup. »

(Translation: “Whether they applaud or they denounce the decision of the Canadian prime minister to shun the United Nations, international observers agree on one thing: Stephen Harper’s silence speaks volumes.”)
