🌍

문화적 배경

The phrase 'au jour d'aujourd'hui' is a common pleonasm used by many French people to sound more emphatic or formal, even though it is technically incorrect. In Quebec, 'aujourd'hui' is used identically to France, but the pronunciation of the 'd'hui' can sometimes be more dentalized. Albert Camus used 'Aujourd'hui' as the very first word of his masterpiece 'L'Étranger', creating an immediate sense of detachment. Many French songs use 'aujourd'hui' to contrast the present with a lost love or a better past.
