While reading the newspaper today, I came across an advertisement for a dentist.
In the ad, they mention that they also offer orthodontic services like braces.
To say braces, they used a feminine plural word proper to the French of Québec: broches.
J’ai porté des broches quand j’étais plus jeune.
I wore braces when I was younger.
J’ai eu des broches quand j’étais ado.
I got braces when I was a teen.
As-tu déjà eu des broches?
Have you ever had braces?
