un / une = one. Some expressions with un/une:
  • s'en jeter un (derrière la cravate) = to knock back a drink (literally to throw a drink behind one's tie :-)
  • être comme pas un/une = to be extremely / to be the greatest + adjective. E.g. Il est menteur comme pas un = he's the greatest liar, elle est fière comme pas une = she's extremely proud
  • un pour tous et tous pour un = all for one and one for all
