English term or phrase:
playing cards for matches
French translation:
jouer aux cartes pour/en misant des allumettes
English term
playing cards for matches
Children dozed on bags or wriggled in their mother’s arms; men sat on the ground **playing cards for matches**.
Est-ce qu'il s'agit d'un jeu particulier ? Ou leur dénuement est tel qu'ils jouent aux cartes pour gagner des allumettes ??
Je penche plutôt pour la première hypothèse, d'après ce que je vois sur Internet, mais je ne vois pas ce que ça peut être.

When entering new questions, KudoZ askers are given an opportunity* to classify the difficulty of their questions as 'easy' or 'pro'. If you feel a question marked 'easy' should actually be marked 'pro', and if you have earned more than 20 KudoZ points, you can click the "Vote PRO" button to recommend that change.
How to tell the difference between "easy" and "pro" questions:
An easy question is one that any bilingual person would be able to answer correctly. (Or in the case of monolingual questions, an easy question is one that any native speaker of the language would be able to answer correctly.)
A pro question is anything else... in other words, any question that requires knowledge or skills that are specialized (even slightly).
Another way to think of the difficulty levels is this: an easy question is one that deals with everyday conversation. A pro question is anything else.
When deciding between easy and pro, err on the side of pro. Most questions will be pro.
* Note: non-member askers are not given the option of entering 'pro' questions; the only way for their questions to be classified as 'pro' is for a ProZ.com member or members to re-classify it.
