Introduction

[edit]

The word "gens" in French means "people" rather than "men", and to me a better English translation of "gens de lettres" is "writers", making the name of the society the Society of the Writers of France. This translation is also more accurate since the article itself asserts that women were among the early members of the society, and there are many female members today.

SGDL(F)

[edit]

The article refers to the association as SGDLF. It may be correct bu ut seems to me that it it rather is known as SGDL in FrancIt's how it's printed on CD labels, for example. e. → Tristan ♡ (talk) 14:30, 18 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
