New-minted
Hello every one!
Once again, I come up against a vocabulary difficulty to which I haven't found yet a satisfactory explanation or an accurate translation in French. I'm sure I can count on you for a help...
Here's the context: It's about a man who is speaking with friends and who proposes something with a "delight new-minted each year". I'm stumped with this term: according to my dictionnary, "new-minted" is only related to coins. In that context, do you think that I could replace that term by "brand new" or "spanking new" to replace - with an idea of recurrence?
Thanking you in advance for any help,
Jicé
