Bonjour

Depuis quelques jours je recherche en vain un mot de vocabulaire dans cette partie de texte, une aide ne serait pas de refus.

Je recherche le mot "sale" dans le texte ci dessous.

She wouldn’t have been at all surprised if Jimmy had been among them. They wouldn’t have been able to see him, of course, but she would. Still, only six people entered the room, including Mrs Paget-Brown herself, the couple called Jameson who had the dead daughter, a very fat man who wheezed and two elderly women, one very smartly dressed in a turquoise suit, the other dowdy with untidy hair.
Sophia said a gracious, ‘Good evening’ and then ‘Please take a seat behind me where you can see the screen. In a moment we shall turn on the light but before that I want to explain what will happen. What may happen. Of course, I can guarantee nothing if she spirits are unwilling.’
They sat down. The asthmatic man breathed noisily. Turquoise suit took off her hat. Sophia could see their faces reflected in the screen, Mrs Jameson’s eyes bright with hope and yearning. The dowdy woman said could she ask a question and when Sophia said, certainly, my pleasure, asked if they would see anything or would it be only a matter of raps and ectoplasm.
Sophia couldn’t help laughing at the idea of ectoplasm. These people were so incredibly behind the times. But her laughter was kindly and she explained that there would be no table-rapping. The sprits, who were very advanced about such things, made their feelings and their messages known through the computer. Those seekers after truth who sat behind her would see answers appear on the screen.
Of course, everyone’s eyes went to the laptop’s small integral keyboard . And when the lights were lowered it was impossible to imagine those keys moving. Sophia kept her hands under the cloth, her fingers on the big keyboard. She was ceaselessly thankful that she had taken that touch-typing course all those years ago when she was a girl.
The asthmatic man’s wife was the first spirit to present herself. Her husband asked if she was happy and YES appeared in green letters on the screen. He asked if she missed him and WAITING FOR YOU TO FOLLOW DEAR appeared. Very much impressed, Mrs Paget-Brown summoned up her father. She said in a awed voice that she could see the keys faintly moving on the integral keyboard as his spirit fingers touched them. Her father answered YES when she asked if he was with her mother and NO when she inquired if death had been a painful experience. Sophia leaned back a little and closed her eyes. Communing with the spirits took it out of her.





J'espère que quelqu'un pourra m'aider.
