معنی
Judged or measured by a particular standard, criterion, or perspective.
زمینه فرهنگی
The phrase is a favorite of French presidents (from De Gaulle to Macron) to give their speeches a sense of historical weight and intellectual authority. In Quebec, the phrase is used in formal legal and administrative documents, often appearing in Supreme Court rulings to interpret laws. In the 'Grandes Écoles', using this phrase in an oral exam (le Grand Oral) is seen as a sign that the student has mastered the formal codes of the French elite. In political discourse in countries like Senegal or Ivory Coast, this expression is used to discuss post-colonial development in light of international standards.
