Lil Picard Lil Picard Lil Picard, (born Lilli Elisabeth Benedick October 4, 1899 – May 10, 1994) was a cabaret actress, artist and critic born in Landau, Germany in 1899, who took part in several generations of Counterculture and Avant-garde art in Berlin and in New York City. Lil Picard was born Lilli Elisabeth Benedick October 4, 1899 in Landau, Germany. She was the only child of Jakob, a wine producer and merchant, and Rosalie Benedick. She spent her childhood and adolescence in Strasbourg, Germany, which is now in France. Seeking solace from her parents, Lil found meaning in books. Westermann's "Monashefte"
Old French "framboise" 'raspberry', from OF "frambeise", from OLF "*brāmbesi" 'blackberry' (cf. Dutch "braambes", "braambezie"; akin to German "Brombeere", English dial. "bramberry") blended with LL "fraga" or OF "fraie" 'strawberry', which explains the replacement > and in turn the final "-se" of "framboise" added to OF "fraie" to make "freise", modern "fraise" (≠ Wallon "frève", Romanian "fragă", Romansh "fraja", Italian "fragola", "fravola" 'strawberry'). Pope (1934) estimated that perhaps still 15% of the vocabulary of modern French derives from Germanic sources (while the proportion was larger in Old French, because the French language borrowed heavily from Latin and Italian).
