A noun used to describe an
unfortunate homonym (words that sound the same but have different meanings). For example, biche (French) and bitch (English).
Derived from
the French word "biche" which means doe or a female deer. It is a French term of endearment. The English "bitch" rather can be very
offensive.
When Pierre referred to his new American
girlfriend as "ma biche", he did not know why she was so
offended.
When Arthur, who just moved from England, asked for a rubber (British term for eraser) from his new
classmate, he didn't know rubbers were another name for condoms. That biche almost got him in trouble.
