on every indiscrepancy - WordReference Forums
velisarius said: It's maths: inconsistency x discrepancy = indiscrepancy. I hope that was a joke.

@ (at sign) - WordReference Forums
Paris - France. Français / France - Brittany. Feb 8, 2008. #9. I agree with Gb56. When you spell an email address in french (e.g. bill.gates@microsoft.com) you use 'at' as follow:"bill point gates at microsoft point com" ("bill dot gates at microsoft dot com" in english).
