Barbara R Cochran (a guest user) asked this question:

Language pair:

French > English

Subject:

Technical / Engineering

Level of diffculty:

Easy / medium

Word or term in question:

bauce

Context:

Les avirons carrés sonnaient entre les volets de fer; et cela marquait dans le silence comme un battement de métronome, tandis qu'à l'arrière la bauce qui traînait ne discontinuait pas son petit clapotement doux dans l'eau.

painter

My comment:

Hi Barbara: There seem to be a lot of misprints in Madame Bovary. Read my reference. Flaubert was actually talking about a "bosse", defined as "Corde fixée à une extrémité de l'embarcation" by the GDT, and translated as "painter".
