Meaning of "Weever" in English

A "weever" refers to a type of small, spiny fish known for inhabiting shallow waters, primarily in the eastern Atlantic Ocean and Mediterranean Sea. These fish are notorious for their venomous spines located on the first dorsal fin and gills. Weever fish are often buried in the sand, making them a hazard to unsuspecting beachgoers who may accidentally step on them. Their sting is painful and can cause swelling and fever, but is rarely life-threatening.

Meaning of "Weever" in French

In French, "weever" also denotes a small, venomous fish known as "vive" in French. These fish are found in similar habitats as described in English, such as shallow waters, where they pose a risk to bathers due to their poisonous spines. Just like in English, the sting from a "vive" is painful and can lead to swelling and fever, but it is not typically dangerous if treated properly. It reflects the same ecological and physiological characteristics in French as it does in English.
