I was reading a book and it uses this outdated french expression I'm
not sure of "m'alita" no accents or anything. I wasn't able to find
anything on this. What does it mean?
Context: "L'autre soir un air froid d'opéra m'alita:" I can get "The
cold evening opera tune ___?:"
Thanks sorry for the trouble.
alité = bedridden
S'aliter is a pronominal verb, though, and I must admit this
particular phrasing sounds a bit strange (would you write "something
bedrid me", I wonder ?).
