معنی
Used to indicate position at the back part of something.
زمینه فرهنگی
The 'jardin secret' (secret garden) is a strong cultural concept. Many French homes look plain from the street but have a beautiful private life 'derrière'. In Quebec, you might hear 'en arrière' used more frequently than in France to mean 'behind' or 'in the back'. In some African French varieties, 'derrière' can be used more broadly to mean 'after' in a sequence, though standard French avoids this. Using 'le derrière' is the 'Goldilocks' of body part terms—not too formal, not too rude. It's perfect for polite company.
The 'De' Trap
Never say 'derrière de'. It's the most common mistake for English and Spanish speakers.
Body Language
If you use 'le derrière' to mean buttocks, it's polite, but don't use it in a formal business meeting unless you're a doctor!
