意思
To demonstrate practical judgment.
文化背景
The French value 'Cartesian logic', but 'bon sens' is seen as the practical application of that logic to everyday life. It's the bridge between high philosophy and daily survival. In Quebec, 'bon sens' is also very common, but you might also hear 'avoir du gros bon sens', emphasizing the 'big' or 'obvious' nature of the logic. Swiss French speakers often use 'bon sens' in the context of civic responsibility and following community guidelines effectively. Similar to France, but sometimes used in political satire to mock the complexity of the Belgian administrative system.
The 'De' Rule
Always remember: faire preuve de + [quality]. No 'le', 'la', or 'les' needed. This works for 'courage', 'patience', and 'bon sens'.
Pronounce the S
In 'bon sens', you must pronounce the final 's'. If you don't, it sounds like 'cent' (hundred) or 'sang' (blood).
