Answer 1

It literally means between walls.

In terms of the French and the revolution it means everything with in the old city walls of Paris.

Answer 2

Hello Arlene, This is a Latin phrase. It means 'within the walls'
In ancient times, sturdy walls built on the perimeters on cities protected their inhabitants against invasion, and the day-to-day life of the city was conducted 'intra muros'.

Answer 3

It is Latin language and means between the walls and is because in the french revolution the people used to hide in the corridor for the service which was between the rooms of the houses.

Answer 4

for example to translate: Paris intra-muros =inner Paris

Answer 5

its not french (but we use it somtimes), its means dans les murs, for example Paris intra muros it Paris without the suburbs
There were walls surrounding Paris to prevent attacks

Answer 6

It's Latin and means between the walls. Even today legal systems in Germany, France and England use Latin tags. It's just to put a bit of mystery in the workings of justice and prevent the plebs acting in their own right. In dubio - pay a lawyer. When in doubt- cough up.

Answer 7

It is Latin for between walls

Intra = Between (as in Intranet)

Muros = Walls (a "mural" is a painting on a wall)

Answer 8
