練習する例文メモとヒント le hibou 30秒で

解説 le hibou in your Level:

At the A1 level, you just need to know that 'le hibou' is a bird that lives in the forest and comes out at night. It is a 'masculine' noun. You should learn the basic sentence: 'Le hibou est un oiseau.' (The owl is a bird). You might see it in picture books. Remember that you say 'le' and not 'l''. Even though it starts with 'h', we don't shorten the 'le'. It's a simple vocabulary word for animals. Focus on the fact that it flies and says 'hou hou'.

At the A2 level, you should start to notice the plural form 'les hiboux'. This is an important exception to the rule that words ending in '-ou' take an '-s'. You can use it to describe nature: 'Dans la forêt, il y a des hiboux.' You should also be able to describe what it does: 'Le hibou dort le jour et chasse la nuit.' (The owl sleeps during the day and hunts at night). You might use it when talking about animals you saw on a trip or in a zoo. It's also good to know that it's a 'rapace' (bird of prey).

At the B1 level, you should understand the distinction between 'le hibou' and 'la chouette'. This is a common point of confusion. A 'hibou' has tufts on its head that look like ears. You can use the word in more descriptive sentences, such as: 'Le hibou est souvent associé au mystère dans les légendes.' You should also be comfortable with the pronunciation, making sure not to make a liaison between 'les' and 'hiboux'. You might encounter this word in short stories or news articles about the environment and protecting local wildlife.

At the B2 level, you can use 'hibou' in more idiomatic or literary contexts. You might discuss its symbolism in French poetry, like Baudelaire's 'Les Hiboux', where the bird represents stillness and wisdom. You should be able to explain the grammatical rule of the 'h aspiré' to others. You might also use it in discussions about ecology: 'La préservation de l'habitat du hibou grand-duc est essentielle pour la biodiversité.' You understand the nuances of the word and can use it accurately in both formal and informal writing about nature or symbols.

At the C1 level, you recognize 'le hibou' as a classic example of French grammatical exceptions (the -oux plural). You can use it in academic or literary analysis. You might explore how the 'hibou' differs from the 'chouette' in cultural symbolism—how one might represent gloom and the other wisdom or magic. You are aware of the word's etymology from the Old French 'huper' (to cry out). You can use the word fluently in complex metaphors about nocturnal behavior or solitary lifestyles without any hesitation regarding its gender or the 'h aspiré' rules.

You can discuss its role in French heraldry, its various regional names in dialects, or its specific place in the history of French ornithological classification. You can use the word in high-level creative writing to evoke specific atmospheres. You might even know archaic or very rare expressions involving the word. Your pronunciation is perfect, respecting the 'h aspiré' with the subtle glottal stop or pause that native speakers use, and you never falter on the irregular plural in complex syntactic structures.

le hibou 30秒で

Le hibou is the French word for an owl with ear tufts.
It is a masculine noun (le hibou) with an aspirated H.
The plural is irregular: les hiboux (ends in -x).
It is biologically different from 'la chouette' in French terminology.

The French word le hibou refers specifically to a group of nocturnal birds of prey within the order Strigiformes. In the English-speaking world, we often use the general term 'owl' to cover all such birds, but French makes a distinct biological and linguistic separation between the hibou (the eared owl) and the chouette (the earless owl). A hibou is characterized by the presence of 'aigrettes'—small tufts of feathers on the head that resemble ears or horns, though they are not actually ears. These tufts are used for communication and camouflage rather than hearing.

Biological Distinction: In French, a 'hibou' is not the male of the 'chouette'. They are different species. If a bird has tufts, it is a hibou. If it does not, it is a chouette.
Grammatical Gender: The word is masculine (le hibou), and importantly, it begins with an 'h aspiré'. This means you say 'le hibou' and never 'l'hibou'.
Symbolism: While often associated with wisdom in English, in some French folklore, the hibou was historically seen as a bird of ill omen or sadness due to its nocturnal nature and haunting call.

Regarde là-haut, le hibou nous observe depuis la branche du vieux chêne.

When people use this word, they are usually referring to the physical bird, but it can also appear in literary contexts to evoke mystery, night, or the forest. In modern daily life, you might encounter it in nature documentaries, children's stories, or when discussing biodiversity in the French countryside. It is a word that carries a certain weight of mystery, often appearing in poetry to represent the watcher of the night.

Le grand-duc est le plus grand hibou d'Europe.

Le cri du hibou résonne dans la forêt silencieuse.

J'ai acheté un petit hibou en bois pour décorer mon étagère.

Using le hibou correctly involves understanding its grammatical quirks and its specific meaning compared to other birds. Because it starts with an aspirated 'h', you must treat it as if it begins with a consonant. This means no elision (l'hibou is wrong) and no liaison (les hiboux is pronounced /le i.bu/, not /le.zi.bu/).

Subject of the Sentence: Le hibou chasse les petits rongeurs pendant la nuit. (The owl hunts small rodents during the night.)
Object of the Sentence: Nous avons entendu un hibou hululer hier soir. (We heard an owl hooting last night.)
Descriptive Context: Avec ses grands yeux jaunes, le hibou semble tout voir. (With its large yellow eyes, the owl seems to see everything.)

In more complex sentence structures, you might use 'hibou' metaphorically. For example, calling someone a 'vieux hibou' can be a slightly derogatory or affectionate way to describe a grumpy or solitary old person. However, its primary use remains ornithological. When writing, ensure you use the plural form 'hiboux' correctly, as it is a frequent target for French spelling tests.

Le photographe a attendu des heures pour capturer l'envol du hibou.

You will encounter le hibou in several specific contexts in France and French-speaking countries. One of the most common places is in children's literature and nursery rhymes. The famous song 'Dans la forêt lointaine' features the lyrics 'on entend le coucou, du haut de son grand chêne, il répond au hibou'. This embeds the word in the memory of every French child.

In scientific or educational settings, such as visits to a 'parc naturel' or a 'volerie' (a place where birds of prey are shown), the word is used with precision to distinguish it from the chouette. Conservationists use it when discussing the protection of habitats for the 'Grand-duc d'Europe', the largest owl in the world, which is a source of national pride in French biodiversity.

Metaphorically, you might hear it in rural areas. A person who stays up late might be called a 'couche-tard', but sometimes the image of the hibou is used to describe someone who is solitary and observant. In literature, poets like Charles Baudelaire have used the hibou as a symbol of meditation and stillness. In his poem 'Les Hiboux', he describes them sitting under black yews like alien gods, emphasizing their stillness and the wisdom of not moving.

The word le hibou is a minefield for learners due to its phonetics and spelling. The most frequent error is treating the 'h' as mute. In French, there are two types of 'h': 'h muet' (which allows elision) and 'h aspiré' (which forbids it). Hibou has an 'h aspiré'.

Mistake: Elision: Saying 'l'hibou' instead of 'le hibou'. This is a very common error for English speakers who are used to words like 'l'homme' or 'l'hôtel'.
Mistake: Liaison: Pronouncing the 's' in 'les hiboux'. It should be 'lay-ee-boo', not 'lay-zee-boo'. The 'h aspiré' acts as a physical barrier to the sound.
Mistake: Plural Spelling: Writing 'hibous' with an 's'. Remember the phrase: 'bijou, caillou, chou, genou, hibou, joujou, pou' - these seven words always take an 'x' in the plural.

Another conceptual mistake is using 'hibou' for any owl. If you are looking at a Barn Owl (Effraie des clochers), which has a heart-shaped face and no tufts, you must call it a chouette. Using hibou for an earless owl sounds scientifically illiterate to a native French speaker.

Understanding le hibou requires knowing its 'cousins' in the French language. The primary alternative is la chouette, but there are others depending on the specific type of bird or the context.

La Chouette vs Le Hibou: Hibou has tufts (aigrettes); Chouette has a smooth head. Example: 'La chouette hulule, le hibou bouboule' (though both can be said to 'hululer').
Le Grand-Duc: The Eagle Owl. This is the 'king' of the hiboux. It is much larger and more powerful.
Le Petit-Duc: The Scops Owl. A much smaller version of the hibou, often found in southern France.

In a metaphorical sense, if you want to describe someone who stays up all night, you might use un oiseau de nuit (a night bird) or un noctambule. While 'hibou' can imply a solitary nature, 'noctambule' implies someone who enjoys the nightlife. If you mean someone is wise, you would say sage comme une image or simply sage, as the link between owls and wisdom is slightly less automatic in French culture than in English, where 'the wise old owl' is a fixed archetype.

How Formal Is It?

豆知識

The 'h' is aspirated because the word has Germanic roots (like 'haie' or 'hache'), which traditionally prevented elision in French.

発音ガイド

UK /lə i.bu/

US /lə i.bu/

The stress is equal on both syllables, as is typical in French, but slightly more weight falls on the final 'ou' sound.

Romance (French), with roots possibly in Germanic or Celtic imitative sounds.

文化的な背景

No specific sensitivities, but avoid using 'vieux hibou' to a stranger as it can be offensive.

よくある質問

10 問

Non, c'est une erreur courante. Le hibou et la chouette sont deux espèces différentes. Le mâle de la chouette est une chouette mâle, et la femelle du hibou est une femelle hibou.

Parce que le 'h' de hibou est un 'h aspiré'. En français, on ne fait pas l'élision (suppression de la voyelle) devant un h aspiré.

Le pluriel est 'hiboux' avec un 'x'. C'est l'une des sept exceptions à la règle générale des mots en -ou qui prennent un 's'.

Le hibou hulule ou bouboule. Le mot le plus courant est 'hululement'.

Ils vivent généralement dans les forêts, les montagnes, ou parfois dans de vieilles ruines, selon l'espèce.

Les hiboux voient principalement en noir et blanc ou avec très peu de couleurs, car leurs yeux sont adaptés à la vision nocturne.

Cela dépend de l'espèce. Le petit-duc est très petit (20 cm), tandis que le grand-duc peut atteindre 75 cm.

Non, il a peur des humains. Cependant, il peut être agressif s'il doit défendre son nid.

Il mange des petits mammifères comme des souris, des mulots, ou parfois des insectes et d'autres oiseaux.

Ces tufts de plumes servent à exprimer des émotions et à se camoufler dans les arbres. Ce ne sont pas des oreilles.
