Grammar
translation of "moral d'acier"
Dear teachers,
Would you please tell me if the French expression "avoir un moral d'acier" has a more formal translation than "to be made of stern stuff"? Is the French expression informal too?
All the best,
Hela

The French term is informal; "stern stuff" seems a good way of expressing this. I suppose you could say "he was a man of strong moral fibre".
