27. pour. Incorrect use of _pour_ without an object; the other
popular phrases have already been noted.
243.--18. malin. The feminine of this adjective, maligne,
is only apparently irregular; the Latin etyma are _malignum_ and
_malignam_ (French words, except those used in address, are derived
from the Latin accusative), these give regularly _malin_ and _maligne_,
because final Latin vowels fall except _a_ which becomes _e_ and final
_gn_ is reduced to _n_, whereas _gn_ between vowels gives the modern
French sound.
30. il pleurait du sang. Compare the English phrase "tldquo;to sweat
blood."
244.--18. il savait plus. Popular omission of _ne_.
