Hello - an 'April Fish'...is a paper cut-out in the shape of a fish, which is taped to a persons' back (usually a fellow student)...they then walk around unaware of the 'april fish' on their back to the amusement of others.
This used to be quite a popular 'April Fools' prank in France when I was a student...I don't know if it still is. Philo
btw - 'I would like to know the meaning of..' |
