意味
Outside the main group or activity; at the periphery of something.
文化的背景
The concept of 'la marginalité' is often celebrated in French literature (e.g., Baudelaire's 'flâneur' or the 'poètes maudits'). Being 'en marge' is seen as a position of truth. In Quebec, 'en marge de' is also used in legal and administrative language to refer to notes added to official registers or civil status documents. In international organizations (UN, EU), 'en marge' refers to the 'corridors of power' where informal deals are struck outside the main assembly hall. In some West African contexts, 'vivre en marge' can specifically refer to those living outside the traditional village structure or the modern state system.

Avoid Infinitives
Never say 'en marge de faire'. Always use a noun like 'en marge de la réalisation de...'
