Significados de Chapter em português

Le mot "chapter" est couramment utilisé en anglais pour désigner une division d'un livre ou d'un document. Dans un contexte littéraire, chaque chapitre représente une section distincte qui traite d'un thème ou d'une progression narrative spécifique. Par exemple, dans une œuvre de fiction, un auteur peut structurer son livre en plusieurs chapitres pour organiser l'intrigue.

Exemples d'utilisation :

  1. "I just finished reading the first chapter of the novel." (Je viens de finir de lire le premier chapitre du roman.)
  2. "The next chapter discusses the implications of climate change." (Le chapitre suivant discute des implications du changement climatique.)

Erreurs courantes :
Une confusion fréquente concerne l'utilisation du mot au pluriel. Les apprenants peuvent dire "chapters" en pensant que cela se réfère à des sections d'un document, mais il est important de s'assurer que le contexte est clair pour éviter toute ambiguïté.
