Usage notes[edit]

  • Used as an insult, the word porc is rather harsh or even dirty (especially with epithets such as "sale" or "gros") whereas the word cochon in the same sense has a more affectionate or childish meaning. Thus, "mon petit cochon" could be translate as "you little dirty one ", using porc instead of cochon is here very unusual or may be viewed as an awkward dirty talking line.
