Rfv-sense: to sober up/to sleep it off. Not seeing it in dictionaries and the entry was tagged with rfc which made me suspicious. Renard Migrant (talk) 12:37, 1 March 2016 (UTC)
- Someone must have confused it with cuver. Andrew Sheedy (talk) 07:12, 2 March 2016 (UTC)
- It looks like it exists. See Wikihow. I found other sites that used it as well, but I didn't spend much time searching on Google books. Andrew Sheedy (talk) 07:19, 2 March 2016 (UTC)
- I've found two on Google Books and I request that this nomination be withdrawn on the grounds it's hard to cite because of the thousands of hits for the other meaning of décuver (empty a vat). google books:décuver gueule de bois gets two (since GBooks results vary by region you might not see them) while google books:décuver alcool and google books:décuver dégriser get thousands of hits and the ones I've looked at are all about emptying vats.
