Text | An 1855 French conversation text consistently translates "balle au camp" as "rounders." It also translates "la crosse" to "cricket." Further, a double is seen in "deux camps," as "En voila une bonne! Deux camps pour celle-la" is translated as "That is a good one! Two bases for that." W. Chapman, Every-Day French Talk (J. B. Bateman, London, 1855), pages 16, 20, 21. Accessed 2/11/10 via Google Books search ("chapman teacher" "french talk" 1855). Query: Would a French person agree that "balle au camp" is rounders by another name? Should we thus chase after that game too? Perhaps a French speaker among us could seek la verite from le Google on this? |
