Hi -
I am working with an eighteenth-century text and I've come across a usage of the word cabaret that I have not seen before. In a (fictional) letter, a mother is describing how traveling will serve to erase her daughter's excessive délicatesse, and she writes:
"she will fear neither the sea nor bad roads, she will know how to sleep in a cabaret equally as well asin her bedroom..."
"elle ne craindra ni la mer ni les mauvais chemins, elle saura dormir dans un cabaret aussi bien que dans sa chambre..."
I appreciate your help!
