Recorded use
Wiktionary examplesThese source excerpts show how supermarché appears in context. They illustrate usage; the definition above remains the entry’s reference meaning.
Je me souviens de la première fois où je me suis posé cette question. C’était dans mon supermarché, au rayon moutardes. Je suis resté paralysé par la difficulté de choisir.
Curieuse impression que le temps ici ne s’écoule pas, qu’il est un présent répété maintes et maintes fois. Qu’il n’y a pas d’Histoire. Même ma mémoire est muette. C’est en dehors de ce lieu, transcrivant tout ceci chez moi, que je me souviens de scènes vues ailleurs, dans d’autres supermarchés, en d’autres époques.
