Pas mal de ...Bonjour, I've heard that one can use "pas mal de ..." to indicate "quite a lot", and I just want to confirm this is correct. For example: "Il y avait pas mal de monde à la fête". Merci ! Kathy

dry cat food = des croquettes?

Cecile,

Can you please clarify the exact French phrase to be used for the ENGLISH phrase "dry cat food"? I have checked my LAROUSSE FRENCH-ENGLISH-FRENCH dictionary and it does not give the meaning of "des croquettes" as "dry cat food". Google Translate gives the meaning of the English phrase "dry cat food" as "nourriture sèche pour chat". Again the puzzling thing is that Google Translate gives the meaning of the English phrase "dry cat foods" as "les aliments secs pour chats". I would like to learn the correct phraseology rather than rely on GOOGLE translate.

Merci beaucoup.
