confidentiel(le)
When something is confidentiel(le), it means it's meant to be kept secret and shared only with a limited number of people. It's like when you have a private conversation or a document that shouldn't be seen by just anyone. You might hear this term in a professional setting, referring to sensitive information or discussions.
For example, a company might have des documents confidentiels that only certain employees can access. If someone tells you something en toute confidentialité, they expect you not to share it with others. It implies a level of trust and discretion.
