Coo/ roucouler
This question relates to:French writing exercise "Beatrice's baby shower"
Asked 3 years ago
Hi Manpreet Kaur,
The verb 'roucouler' is used to convey the sound made by pigeons and doves. It is very onomatopeic and although it can be used figuratively it would sound a bit odd and ironic for a baby shower.
It is sometimes used to describe the way lovers talk to each other.
Bonne Continuation!
