Final answer:

To match the French culinary terms to their meanings, 'un hors d'oeuvre' is a small dish served before the main course, 'le menu' is a list or pre-selected set of dishes, 'a la carte' refers to individually priced items, and 'la salade' can be either an individual or shared dish.

Step-by-step explanation:

The student is asking to match French culinary terms to their meanings:

  • A) Un hors d'oeuvre: This is a small dish served before the main course, not after.
  • B) Le menu: This is indeed a list of dishes available in a restaurant or it can also be a pre-selected set of dishes, often part of a fixed-price meal.
  • C) À la carte: Refers to a menu where items are priced individually, allowing patrons to combine items in whatever way they choose.
  • D) La salade: These can be individual portions or shared, depending on the context, but they are not exclusively 'not shared'.

Therefore, the correct matches are:

  1. A) Un hors d'oeuvre: This is a small dish served before the main course.
  2. B) Le menu: This is a list of dishes or a pre-selected set of dishes.
  3. C) À la carte: These are individual dishes listed by category.
  4. D) La salade: This can be an individual or a shared dish, depending on the setting and portion size.
