Doux commerce

Doux commerce is a big grown-up word that means "nice trading." It's all about people who sell things and people who buy things being kind and fair to each other. Imagine you have some toys that you don't want anymore, and your friend has a toy that they really want. You could be mean and say, "I won't give you my toy unless you give me two of yours!" But that wouldn't be doux commerce. Doux commerce means that you would try to be fair and say, "I will trade you my toy for your toy, because we both want something the other person has." It's about treating others the way you would want to be treated, and not trying to take advantage of people. That makes the world a happier and friendlier place!
