Lycéen (or collégien). Student, but specîfically a

pupil of the lycées, which represent the secondary course of public instruction in France. It lasts from 9 to 10 years, the average âge of entrance being seven. Upon the successf ul completion of his course, at an âge varying — according to circumstances — from 17 to 2Q, the lycéen obtains his baccalauréat (cf. n. p. 10, 1. 10). It will be noted, therefore, that the graduate of the lycée is somewhat younger than the graduate of our largest collèges and imiversities, the beginning courses of which overlap the final courses of the lycées. 9. De circonstance. Appropriate {i. e., required bycir-

cumstances).

25. Sans façon=sans gêne. Unceremoniously. Cf. exs., p. 18, 1. 1 ; p. 97, 1. 11,
