Quote from Candide:
Sa physionomie annonçait son âme. Il avait le jugement assez droit, avec l'esprit le plus simple ; c'est, je crois, pour cette raison qu'on le nommait Candide.
If I understand correctly, this means (loosely translated) something like:
His face expressed his soul. He got a pretty upright appearance, with a simple mind. That's why, I belive, he was called Candide.
Now I've got some questions:
- Is this correct?
- Is jugement obsolete for describing a person? What is its meaning today, if so?
