Introduction to the verb cocaliser
The English translation of the French verb cocaliser is “to gossip” or “to chitchat.” It is pronounced as “koh-kah-lee-zay” in its infinitive form.
The word cocaliser comes from the French noun “cocotte,” meaning a small cooking pot, and the suffix “-iser,” which indicates the act of doing something. Therefore, cocaliser originally referred to the act of gathering around a small pot and chatting, but it has evolved to mean any kind of casual conversation or gossiping.
In everyday French, cocaliser is often used in the L’impératif Présent tense, which is the imperative mood used for giving commands or orders. Here are three simple examples of its usage in this tense, with their English translations:
- Cocalisez-vous ! (Gossip!)
- Ne cocalisons pas trop longtemps. (Let’s not gossip for too long.)
- Cocalise-lui toutes les dernières nouvelles. (Tell her all the latest news.)
In these examples, cocaliser is used to instruct someone to gossip (example 1), to suggest not gossiping for too long (example 2), and to encourage someone to share gossip (example 3). As you can see, cocaliser is commonly used in a casual or playful tone in everyday French.
