again
Attention à ne pas confondre again et back, adverbes dont les sens sont proches mais l'utilisation différente. Again signifie encore, une autre fois (don't do it again or you'll be in trouble), alors que back implique un retour à un état précédent (put it back in the closet). Back sert aussi à exprimer l'idée de rendre quelque chose à quelqu'un (give it back to me right now!).
Boxing Day
Au Royaume-Uni, le 26 décembre est un jour férié au cours duquel l'on rend visite à ses proches. Ce terme remonte au XIXe siècle : on offrait alors des « boîtes de Noël » contenant des friandises ou des boissons aux employés ou commerçants ayant rendu des services durant l'année. Aujourd'hui, il est d'usage de donner des étrennes ou d'offrir un petit cadeau aux livreurs de lait ou de journaux.
