That isn't stealing. That's unification, standardization.

English has stolen many words from other languages. This may well be one 
of them.
My dictionary says "maisonette"; 1) small house 2) semi-detached house 
3) self contained flat over 2 floors


 Have heard the term in Australia but not for many years.

These days, it's apparently been replaced by "Granny Flat", which is a 
similar concept of a self-contained flat attached to a house, but with 
it's own entrance.




Granny flats can be attached (or semi-detached) or completely separate 
from the main residence.

These days, it's apparently been replaced by "Granny Flat", which is a
similar concept of a self-contained flat attached to a house, but with it's
own entrance.

Nearly all in England.

In french, a "maisonette" is a small detached house or a tiny house or a 
shed.
Did this word also exist in english or thoses tags are a bad use of a 
french word in stead of the english one ?

Marc


Hi,

Er

And, BTW, the French is maisonnette. English is both right
and wrong.

Cheers

Cordialement,
