Introduction to the verb haler
The English translation of the French verb haler is “to haul” or “to pull.” It is pronounced as “ah-lay.”
The word haler comes from the old French word “haler” meaning “to drag” or “to pull.” It is most often used in everyday French to describe physically pulling or dragging something, such as a rope or a heavy object.
Examples:
