chevreuil

Where it comes from

Borrowed from French chevreuil. Cognate of translingual Capreolus.

noun chevreuils

  1. A roe deer, a roebuck. We found a chevreuil, and, could we have got him once out of the covert, no doubt should have had an excellent run towards Mortefontaine; but as he was determined not to go straight away, and we were not strong enough to make him, after a short gallop we gave it up.
