Translations for pick up in French
Here are paragraphs from public domain books translated:
Then I lashed the tiller and went below to my own chest, where I got a soft silk handkerchief of my mother's. With this, and with my aid, Hands bound up the great bleeding stab he had received in the thigh, and after he had eaten a little and had a swallow or two more of the brandy, he began to pick up visibly, sat straighter up, spoke louder and clearer, and looked in every way another man. | J’amarrai alors la barre et descendis chercher dans mon coffre personnel un mouchoir de soie fine donné par ma mère. Je m’en servis pour aider Hands à bander la large blessure saignante qu’il avait reçue à la cuisse. Après avoir mangé un peu et avalé quelques gorgées d’eau-de-vie, il commença à se remonter visiblement, se tint plus droit, parla plus haut et plus net, et parut un tout autre homme. |
