Introduction to the verb baguenauder
The English translation of the French verb baguenauder is “to stroll” or “to wander aimlessly.” It is pronounced as “bah-gwen-oh-day.”

Example 3: Ils eurent baguenaudé dans les rues de Paris avant de s’arrêter pour un café. (They had strolled around the streets of Paris before stopping for a coffee.)
