Excerpt from Le Rabelais de Poche: Avec un Dictionnaire Pantagruélique, Tiré des Oeuvres de François Rabelais

Le mot si joli, si net, si bref, dont nous conservons les heureux dérivés acculer, re culer, reculad.e, etc., a été détrôné par le mot derrière, mot vague, qui s'appliquant à l'homme ne peut que désigner indistincte ment, des talons à la.nuque, tout le derrière humain. Essayez d'en tirer les dérivés que l'on obtient avec l'autre.
