Mettre des branlees = battre, corriger physiquement (humiliant...)
A l'aune de l'histoire = a la mesure de l'histoire (comparaison)
De tous poils = divers, varies
Je me tate = j'hesite

Je me tâte de.. I'm trying to decide.

Penates -- from the Latin for house gods I believe (Vinny will know). Anyway, "regagner ses penates" means to go home.

Etre jugé aux assizes -- to be tried in court, I think like a criminal court.

a la barre -- if it's to do with the courtroom, then you are talking about the person on trial. If you are talking about a boat, it's the helmsman (person steering).

merci.
"au plus au point" svp? ils me lassent au plus au point.

et qu'est-ce que c'est redevenu vivable ici avec tout les apostrophes qu'on recupère :)

#7 -- shouldn't that be "au plus haut point"? It would sound the same.

#8 means -- it's comfortable (literally, a place good to live in) here again now that we got all the apostrophes back.
