Introduction to the verb caponner
The English translation of the French verb caponner is “to castrate” or “to caponize.” It is pronounced as [ka.po.ne] in the infinitive form.
The word “caponner” comes from the Old French word “capuner,” which is derived from the Latin word “capo,” meaning “castrate.” In everyday French, caponner is mainly used in the Passé Composé (Present Perfect) tense to describe a past action or event that has been completed.

- Mon grand-père a toujours caponné les poulets lui-même. (My grandfather always castrated the chickens himself.)
- Les fermiers ont caponné tous les mâles pour éviter la reproduction. (The farmers castrated all the males to prevent reproduction.)
In all of these examples, caponner is used as the past participle of the verb, with the auxiliary verb “avoir” (to have) in the Passé Composé. It is commonly used in farming and agriculture to describe the process of castrating male animals.
