Chapel Hill, NC English, USA un équivalent en français? In English, it means something along the lines of, "What do you think of that?" (although it's a rhetorical question) and is primarily said in an extremely boasting/arrogant context. example--I have just scored a 100 on my exam and you have scored an 85. I say to you, "How do you like them apples?!?" Moderator note: multiple threads merged to create this one Last edited by a moderator: Jun 28, 2012 J

Toronto, Canada French Hi everyone, I have difficulties to translate this "Good Will Hunting" script part. Does it exist an equivalence in French for this expression please ? Here is the quotes : - Do you like apples? - Yeah. - Well, I got her number. How do you like them apples? If you can help, I will appreciate a lot. Thank you. LA53 J

Grenoble, France British English It's grammatically wrong, and should rather be 'how do you like those apples?'. As for its meaning in this context it means 'how about that!' - 'qu'est-ce que tu dis de ça!' L

North Adams, MA English USA, Northeast, NYC "How do you like them apples?" is a set phrase used by the ostensible winner of a "one-upsmanship" contest to express his feelings of triumph. See this wiki.

Paris French (France) Maybe a French equivalent can be : "Et toc ! Dans les dents !"
