French[edit]

Etymology[edit]

From Old French peler, from Late Latin pilāre, present active infinitive of pilō (remove hair, depilate), from Latin pilus, perhaps influenced by Old French pel.

Pronunciation[edit]

  • IPA(key): /pə.le/
  • (file)

Verb[edit]

peler

  1. to peel

Conjugation[edit]

This verb is conjugated mostly like the regular -er verbs (parler and chanter and so on), but the -e- /ə/ of the second-to-last syllable becomes -è- /ɛ/ when the next vowel is a silent or schwa -e-. For example, in the third-person singular present indicative, we have il pèle rather than *il pele. Other verbs conjugated this way include lever and mener. Related but distinct conjugations include those of appeler and préférer.
