Introduction to the verb feuler
The English translation of the French verb feuler is “to growl” or “to snarl.” The infinitive form is pronounced as [fœ.le].
Feuler comes from the Old French word “fuellier” which means “to whine” or “to cry like a cat.” It is most often used in everyday French in the Subjonctif Plus-que-parfait tense, which is the equivalent of the past perfect subjunctive tense in English. This tense is used to express a hypothetical or imagined past action.
Examples of feuler in the Subjonctif Plus-que-parfait tense are:
- Il aurait feulé si je lui avais pris sa proie. (He would have growled if I had taken his prey.)
- Si tu n’avais pas marché sur sa queue, il n’aurait pas feulé. (If you hadn’t stepped on his tail, he wouldn’t have growled.)
- Elle aurait feulé si elle avait vu un chien inconnu dans sa cour. (She would have growled if she had seen an unfamiliar dog in her yard.)
In these examples, feuler is used to express a potential or imagined reaction to a past event. It is often used in the context of animals, as in the examples above, but can also be used to describe a person’s angry or aggressive vocalization.
