what is a menage?

[CowgirlACH]

You all will probably think I am stupid, but what is a menage? I see this term all the time on this forum. Thanks.

A sand school, just a different word for it!

It is a word used for an outside arena, although commonly used I believe the correct word should be manege.

As others have said - it's funny though, my ex had a ground works company and got a call from someone saying they wanted a menage building - he thought it was some kind of gazebo in there garden they wanted!!

So your not the only one! Silly word really!

Noooo

Tis the other way round. Manege is correct (should have a grave accent on 1st e). The other is apparently a bit rude (a french person told me!)

ETS sorry, I'm obviously dyslexic- You're right!!

That is what I meant, manege (can't do the accent) is the correct word..I didn't know menage is rude..I thought it was something to do with a kitchen

Thanks to everyone for all the replies. I had never heard of the term before. In the US we just call it an arena.

Something like this may be?

Thanks for setting me straight on the spelling. I had no idea the other was a rude word.

Sorry, yes you're right. Edited my post to say what an eejit I am but obviously not quickly enough!

The other is what Bonzabean says
