"Bigarré" can be translated by "colourful", but it can also refer to "a set of different elements, without harmony", something like that.

"S'avère" means "turns out to be true/real"

 

There must be a better translation, but for now I just have the general idea of those words in mind :s

Thank you very much that was very helpful.

Just a point of detail here.

S'avérer means "to turn out to be" strictly, not particularly real/true.

Examples :

L'examen s'est avéré plus facile que je ne pensais

Ce virage s'avère dangereux

Thank you so much, I am really thrilled by just how helpful people have been. once again Thank you
