Usage Note

Badge is a direct borrowing from English, widely used in French for both identification badges (worn at conferences, offices) and merit badges. It is sometimes written with the same spelling but pronounced with a French accent. The plural is badges. An alternative French term for a name tag is étiquette, but badge is the dominant word in professional and event contexts.

Examples

"N'oublie pas ton badge pour entrer."

Natural Translation

Don't forget your badge to get in.
