Diaporamas!
|
Surfing on the web, I found this
wonderful website, proposing hundreds of free powerpoint diaporamas,
about litterature, history, etc;
http://www.pppst.com/index.html
very useful for people that lose
liters of sweat to make a 1min30-long diaporama, like me.
Soon on holidays! Yes!
Enjoy!

Wow, that �s a fantastic site, but I have to admit I haven �t heard of diaporamas either. Is that related to diorama? (No diaper jokes, but I was tempted, heehee) |

I hadn �t heard of diaporamas, either, but Wikipedia has this: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diaporama
Looks like they think it �s a fairly new word (2008).

diaporama is used in France to talk about "presentations" - it comes from the time we used "diapositives" (in english = slide films/pictures)
my grandparents used to have a lot of slide films, and when I was a child we had "diaporama" nights: someone would set up the projector, and then we would watch together the old pictures projected on the wall. It was before they could buy a camera to film everything...
so in French, "diaporamas" are fairly old, but it �s nice to know it �s used in English now (here there �re so many english in our everyday language...)
i called powerpoints presentations diaporamas until i went to Minnesota
and realized that was a French word... ;)
have a nice day!!!!
