In france we call em dent de lait, milk teeth
When is milk stuff like de lait?
Edit:
delait vsdulaitWhat do you mean
I feel like I always see milk written as du lait, not de or is this like some subject/description basic thing I'm ignorant of
"Du" is used in the sense of "some" milk, while "de" is more "of" milk. Not sure it's the exact translation but that's how it's mapped in my French speaking ESL brain.
Yes, you got it aha. I passively knew that but it was un peu buried
There's also au, like in cafΓ© au lait π
OlΓ© πͺπΈπ€
I feel like π₯Ά but yellow would have been a nicer touch given the Thread
Same in Spanish, dientes de leche
