To unlatch or swing open a door.
خلفية ثقافية
In France, it is considered polite to hold the door open for the person behind you, even if they are a stranger. In Quebec, the term 'barrer la porte' is often used for 'locking the door', which is different from standard French 'verrouiller'. The metaphor of 'opening doors' is universally understood in business contexts as creating opportunities.
Remember the 'r'
The French 'r' is produced in the back of the throat. Practice it gently.
Don't 'open' lights
Always use 'allumer' for lights. 'Ouvrir' is strictly for doors, windows, and abstract concepts.
