This new perfume has a wonderfully chocolaté scent.
Using chocolaté in a sentence is straightforward, as it functions like any other adjective. The key is to place it correctly and ensure it agrees with the noun it describes. Here are various ways to incorporate it:
- Describing Food
- This is the most common application. You can use it to describe cakes, cookies, pastries, ice cream, drinks, and anything else that tastes like chocolate.
J'ai commandé une tarte chocolaté pour l'anniversaire.
Translation: I ordered a chocolate tart for the birthday.
- Describing Drinks
- Hot chocolate, chocolate milk, or even a mocha coffee can be described as chocolaté.
Le lait était délicieusement chocolaté.
Translation: The milk was deliciously chocolatey.
- Describing Scents
- When a fragrance evokes chocolate, this adjective is perfect.

Translation: This candle has a chocolatey scent. (Note the feminine agreement here: chocolatée)
- Describing Colors
- A rich, deep brown can be referred to as chocolaté.
Elle portait une robe couleur chocolaté.
Translation: She was wearing a chocolate-colored dress. (Feminine agreement: chocolaté becomes chocolatée)
- In Combination with Other Adjectives
- You can combine it with other descriptive words for more nuanced descriptions.
Ce gâteau au chocolat noir est intensément chocolaté.
Translation: This dark chocolate cake is intensely chocolatey.
Les chocolats étaient particulièrement chocolatés.
Translation: The chocolates were particularly chocolatey.
The word chocolaté is a common adjective that you'll frequently encounter in various everyday situations in French-speaking countries. Its primary domain is culinary, but it can extend to other sensory descriptions.
- In Cafés and Bakeries
- When ordering a drink or a pastry, descriptions like 'café chocolaté' (chocolatey coffee) or 'éclair chocolaté' (chocolate éclair) are very common. You'll see it on menus and hear baristas or bakers describing their offerings.
Je voudrais un croissant au beurre et un café chocolaté, s'il vous plaît.
Translation: I would like a butter croissant and a chocolatey coffee, please.
- In Restaurants
- When ordering desserts, especially chocolate-based ones, the term chocolaté is frequently used to emphasize the richness of the chocolate flavor. For example, 'mousse au chocolat très chocolatée' (very chocolatey chocolate mousse).
Le dessert était une merveille chocolatée.
Translation: The dessert was a chocolatey marvel.
- In Supermarkets and Food Packaging
- Product labels for chocolate bars, biscuits, ice cream, and other chocolate-flavored items often use chocolaté to describe the product's taste profile.
Nouveau! Biscuits au chocolat noir, au goût intensément chocolaté.
Translation: New! Dark chocolate biscuits, with an intensely chocolatey taste.
- In Home Cooking and Recipes
- When discussing recipes or the results of cooking, people might say 'Ma recette de gâteau au chocolat est très chocolatée' (My chocolate cake recipe is very chocolatey), meaning it has a strong chocolate flavor.
Pour un vrai plaisir chocolaté, j'ai ajouté plus de cacao.
Translation: For a real chocolatey pleasure, I added more cocoa.

L'air était rempli d'une douce odeur chocolatée.
Translation: The air was filled with a sweet chocolatey scent.
While chocolaté is a relatively simple adjective, learners can sometimes make a few common errors. Understanding these pitfalls can help you use the word more accurately.
- 1. Forgetting Gender and Number Agreement
- This is by far the most frequent mistake. French adjectives must agree in gender and number with the noun they modify. Chocolaté is masculine singular. However, you must use chocolatée for feminine singular nouns, chocolatés for masculine plural nouns, and chocolatées for feminine plural nouns.
Incorrect: La tarte est chocolaté.
Correct: La tarte est chocolatée. (Tarte is feminine singular)
Incorrect: Les biscuits sont chocolaté.
Correct: Les biscuits sont chocolatés. (Biscuits is masculine plural)
- 2. Overusing it for Anything Chocolate-Related
- While chocolaté means 'chocolate-flavored', it's not always the best word if the item is simply made *of* chocolate or contains pieces of chocolate without necessarily having a pervasive chocolate flavor. For example, a simple chocolate bar might just be called 'une barre de chocolat', not necessarily 'une barre chocolatée' unless its flavor profile is particularly dominant and distinct.
Okay: J'ai mangé une barre chocolatée.
Better in some contexts: J'ai mangé une barre de chocolat.
The distinction can be subtle. If the item is primarily chocolate, 'de chocolat' might suffice. If the chocolate flavor is a distinct characteristic added to something else, 'chocolaté' is more appropriate.
- 3. Confusing with 'Chocolat' Itself
- Chocolaté is an adjective, while chocolat is a noun. It's important not to use the noun when an adjective is needed.
Incorrect: Ce gâteau est chocolat.
Correct: Ce gâteau est chocolaté.
However, 'gâteau au chocolat' (cake with chocolate) is also correct and very common. 'Chocolaté' emphasizes the taste profile, while 'au chocolat' indicates it contains chocolate.
- 4. Using it for Non-Edible Items Without Caution
- While it can be used for scents or colors, it's less common and might sound slightly poetic or specific. Ensure the context makes it clear you are referring to a scent or color resembling chocolate.
Okay: La bougie a une odeur chocolatée.
Less common: La couleur de sa robe était chocolatée. (More common: couleur chocolat)
While chocolaté is a precise and common adjective for 'chocolate-flavored', there are other ways to express a similar idea in French, depending on the nuance and context. Understanding these alternatives can enrich your vocabulary.
- 1. Chocolat (Noun)
- This is the most fundamental word, meaning 'chocolate'. It's used as a noun and also very commonly as part of a compound phrase to describe something made with or containing chocolate.
The cake is made of chocolate: Le gâteau est fait au chocolat.
The drink contains chocolate: La boisson contient du chocolat.
Comparison: 'Gâteau au chocolat' is very common and means 'chocolate cake'. 'Gâteau chocolaté' emphasizes the *flavor* of chocolate in the cake, suggesting it's intensely chocolatey. Both are correct, but 'chocolaté' highlights the taste experience more directly.
- 2. Au chocolat (Prepositional Phrase)
- This phrase, meaning 'with chocolate' or 'in chocolate', is frequently used to describe food items that contain chocolate.
A chocolate croissant: Un croissant au chocolat.
A chocolate mousse: Une mousse au chocolat.
Comparison: 'Mousse au chocolat' is the standard and most common way to say 'chocolate mousse'. 'Mousse chocolatée' would imply the mousse *tastes* strongly of chocolate, which is usually the case, but 'au chocolat' is more direct about its composition. 'Au chocolat' is often preferred for items where chocolate is a primary component or filling.
- 3. Saveur chocolatée (Noun Phrase)
- This translates to 'chocolate flavor'. It's a noun phrase and is used when you want to specifically talk about the flavor itself.
This ice cream has a wonderful chocolate flavor: Cette glace a une merveilleuse saveur chocolatée.
Comparison: 'Saveur chocolatée' is a noun, while chocolaté is an adjective. You would say 'une glace chocolatée' (a chocolatey ice cream) or 'une glace à la saveur chocolatée' (an ice cream with a chocolate flavor). The former is more concise for describing the ice cream itself.
- 4. Rich / Intense (Adjectives)
- Sometimes, instead of saying something is 'chocolaté', you might use adjectives like 'riche' (rich) or 'intense' to describe the quality of the chocolate flavor.
A rich chocolate cake: Un gâteau au chocolat riche.
An intense chocolate taste: Un goût de chocolat intense.
Comparison: These adjectives describe the *quality* of the chocolate flavor, whereas chocolaté simply states its presence. A cake can be 'chocolaté' without being particularly 'riche' or 'intense', and vice-versa. Often, these are used in combination: 'un gâteau intensément chocolaté et riche'.
- 5. Cacaoté (Adjective)
- This adjective means 'cocoa-flavored'. It's related to chocolate but specifically refers to the taste of cocoa powder rather than processed chocolate.
A drink with a cocoa flavor: Une boisson cacaotée.
Comparison: While chocolate is made from cocoa, 'chocolaté' typically implies the taste of processed chocolate (which can include sugar, milk, etc.), whereas 'cacaoté' refers more specifically to the bitter, earthy taste of cocoa itself. You might find a 'boisson cacaotée' to be less sweet and more intense than a 'boisson chocolatée'.

نکته جالب
The Spanish first encountered the drink from the Aztecs and brought it to Europe, where sugar was added, making it more palatable and leading to its global popularity. The French adopted the word 'chocolat' and then created the adjective 'chocolaté' to describe things that possess its flavor.
راهنمای تلفظ
- Pronouncing 'ch' as in 'chair' instead of 'sh'.
- Making the final 'é' sound too short or like a regular 'e'.
- Incorrectly stressing a syllable other than the last one.

اغلب اشتباه گرفته میشود با
'Chocolat' is the noun meaning 'chocolate'. 'Chocolaté' is the adjective meaning 'chocolatey' or 'chocolate-flavored'. You can't say 'This cake is chocolate' when you mean its flavor; you'd say 'This cake is chocolatey' ('Ce gâteau est chocolaté') or 'This is a chocolate cake' ('C'est un gâteau au chocolat').
'Au chocolat' is a prepositional phrase meaning 'with chocolate' or 'made with chocolate'. It's very common for describing items where chocolate is a primary ingredient or filling, like 'mousse au chocolat'. While 'chocolaté' emphasizes the flavor intensity, 'au chocolat' is more about composition. They can sometimes be used together: 'une mousse au chocolat, très chocolatée'.
'Cacaoté' means 'cocoa-flavored'. While related, it refers more specifically to the taste of cocoa powder, which can be more bitter and less sweet than processed chocolate. 'Chocolaté' usually implies the flavor of actual chocolate (which contains sugar, milk, etc.).
اصطلاحات و عبارات
— This is not a standard idiom. 'Cœur chocolaté' might be used poetically or playfully to describe someone with a sweet disposition or a love for chocolate, but it's not a fixed expression.
Elle a toujours un mot gentil, elle a le cœur chocolaté.
Creative/Figurative— This is not a standard idiom. 'Manger sur le pouce' means to eat quickly, often standing up or on the go. Adding 'chocolaté' would just specify that the quick meal was chocolate-flavored.
J'ai dû manger sur le pouce chocolaté ce matin-là.
Figurative/Descriptive— This is a play on the idiom 'se faire rouler dans la farine' (to be tricked or deceived). Adding 'chocolatée' would imply being tricked in a context related to chocolate, or perhaps in a way that seems sweet but is deceptive.
Il pensait avoir une bonne affaire, mais il s'est fait rouler dans la farine chocolatée.
Playful/Figurative— A play on 'coup de foudre' (love at first sight). This would mean falling in love with something chocolatey at first sight, like a dessert or a chocolate shop.
Quand j'ai vu cette pâtisserie, j'ai eu un coup de foudre chocolaté.
Playful/Figurative— This phrase is not standard. 'Être chocolaté' means to be chocolatey. 'Comme un enfant' implies a childlike behavior or enjoyment. It might be used to describe someone who is overjoyed and indulges in chocolate like a child.
Il a reçu son cadeau et il était chocolaté comme un enfant.
Figurative/Descriptive— A chocolatey dream. This refers to a dream that is pleasant and perhaps involves chocolate or has a sweet, delightful quality.

Cette nouvelle barre de chocolat est le summum du chocolaté.

Both words are directly related to chocolate.
'Chocolat' is the noun for the substance itself. 'Chocolaté' is the adjective describing something that tastes or smells like chocolate. You eat 'du chocolat' (chocolate), and you eat something 'chocolaté' (chocolatey).
J'ai acheté du chocolat noir. Ce gâteau est délicieusement chocolaté.
Both are used to describe chocolate-flavored items.
'Au chocolat' specifies that the item is made with or contains chocolate (e.g., 'croissant au chocolat'). 'Chocolaté' describes the resulting flavor profile, often implying intensity (e.g., 'un croissant très chocolaté'). Sometimes both are used: 'une tarte au chocolat, intensément chocolatée'.
Je veux une tarte au chocolat. J'aime quand elle est bien chocolatée.
Both refer to the chocolate flavor.
'Saveur chocolatée' is a noun phrase ('chocolate flavor'). 'Chocolaté' is an adjective. You would say 'une glace à la saveur chocolatée' (ice cream with chocolate flavor) or simply 'une glace chocolatée' (a chocolatey ice cream).
Cette glace a une merveilleuse saveur chocolatée. C'est une glace vraiment chocolatée.
Both describe flavors derived from cacao.
'Chocolaté' refers to the taste of processed chocolate, which typically includes sugar and other ingredients. 'Cacaoté' refers more directly to the taste of cocoa powder, which is often more bitter and less sweet. A drink could be 'chocolaté' (like Nesquik) or 'cacaoté' (like a rich hot cocoa).
Le lait était trop sucré, je préfère mon chocolaté. Mais ce cacao en poudre est parfait pour une boisson cacaotée.
Both are adjectives describing flavors.

ریشه کلمه
The word 'chocolaté' is derived from the French word 'chocolat' (chocolate), which itself comes from the Nahuatl word 'xocolātl'. The suffix '-é' is a common French adjectival suffix indicating possession of a quality or characteristic.
معنای اصلی: The Nahuatl word 'xocolātl' referred to a bitter drink made from cacao beans, often mixed with spices and water.

The word itself is generally positive and associated with pleasure. However, like any food descriptor, it should be used appropriately in context. For example, describing a person's skin tone as 'chocolaté' might be perceived differently depending on the cultural context and intent, though it is sometimes used.
In English, we use 'chocolatey' or 'chocolate-flavored'. The French 'chocolaté' is a direct equivalent and shares the same positive connotations of indulgence and deliciousness.

10 سوالThe adjective 'chocolaté' means 'chocolatey' and emphasizes the flavor intensity. The phrase 'au chocolat' means 'with chocolate' or 'made with chocolate' and often refers to the ingredients or composition.

You can use both: 'une mousse au chocolat, intensément chocolatée'.

For 'chocolaté': - Masculine singular: chocolaté (e.g., un gâteau chocolaté) - Feminine singular: chocolatée (e.g., une tarte chocolatée) - Masculine plural: chocolatés (e.g., des biscuits chocolatés) - Feminine plural: chocolatées (e.g., des crêpes chocolatées)
Yes, 'chocolaté' can be used to describe a deep brown color that resembles chocolate. For example, 'une robe couleur chocolaté' (a chocolate-colored dress). However, 'couleur chocolat' is often more common for colors.
While most commonly used for food and drinks, 'chocolaté' can also describe scents (like candles or perfumes) or colors that are reminiscent of chocolate. For instance, 'un parfum chocolaté' (a chocolatey perfume) or 'une teinte chocolatée' (a chocolatey hue).
'Chocolaté' refers to the flavor of processed chocolate, which usually includes sugar and other ingredients. 'Cacaoté' refers more directly to the taste of cocoa powder itself, which is often more bitter and intense. Think of 'chocolaté' as the flavor of a chocolate bar and 'cacaoté' as the flavor of pure cocoa powder.
'Chocolaté' is an adjective used directly to describe something (e.g., 'un gâteau chocolaté'). 'Saveur chocolatée' is a noun phrase meaning 'chocolate flavor'. You would say 'une glace chocolatée' (a chocolatey ice cream) or 'une glace à la saveur chocolatée' (an ice cream with a chocolate flavor). The adjective form is often more concise.

The pronunciation is /ʃɔ.kɔ.la.te/. The 'ch' is like 'sh', the 'o's are like in 'hot', the 'a' is like in 'father', and the final 'é' is like 'ay' in 'say'. The stress is on the last syllable: cho-co-la-TÉ.
The most common mistake is forgetting to agree the adjective ('chocolaté', 'chocolatée', 'chocolatés', 'chocolatées') with the gender and number of the noun. Also, avoid using it when 'au chocolat' is more appropriate for simply indicating the presence of chocolate as an ingredient.
