qroqqa commented on the word riions
Nous riions tellement que, quand Elsa me frappa sur l'épaule et que je vis son air de Cassandre, je fus sur le point de l'envoyer au diable.
—Sagan, Bonjour Tristesse
Interesting spelling: I didn't know you could get a double <ii> in native French words. (I don't know if this imperfect "we were laughing" would actually be pronounced any differently from the present tense nous rions "we laugh".)
