Question

@Vincent-Lyon.Fr Que signifie "coup"? Je le cherchais dans beaucoup de dictionnaire, je ne pouvais pas trouver une bonne reponse.

Answer 1

The translation will depend on context. Please specify.
A 'coup' is literally a knock or a blow, but can be used in many other situations.

Answer 2

"A force de jeter mes trésors au brasier
Brûlant tout en un \(\color{red}{\mbox{coup}}\)
Pour vous faire crier"

Answer 3

'tout d'un coup' means 'all of a sudden'
'd'un seul coup' means 'all in one go', 'all at once', 'all in one shot'

Answer 4

Merci beau\(\color{red}{\text{coup}}\)! :D

Answer 5

like beaucoup obviously come from beau+coup?

Answer 6

So it's a good blow?

Answer 7

or a handsome blow?

Answer 8

Maybe, but I'm not sure.
It could mean 'beau coup' as in 'to reap a lot in one shot'. But nobody is aware of such a meaning nowadays.

It is the same for 'maintenant' which actually comes from 'main tenant', that is '[the time] that you can hold in your hand'.
