Did you mean intention (french spelling) is a translation for list comprehension ? First time I've seen it used ( https://fr.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liste_en_compr%C3%A9hension ) Sorry if I misunderstood.

Not 'intention' (will/wish), but 'intension' (as the opposite of extension: see https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intension_et_extension).

"comprehension list" in french can be translated to "liste en intension"

Interesting, the word exist in English too, but I cannot find anywhere how it is supposed to be pronounced, in either language.

Unfortunately, at least in English, it's pronounced the same as intention. This causes brief confusion in introductory logic and semantics classes everywhere.

TIL, thanks. It seems to be the kind of perfectly adapted idiom (that no one uses or understand).

Ahhhhhh - thanks!
