'Oeillet commun' is a French equivalent of 'carnation' [Dianthus caryophyllus]. Other equivalents include 'oeillet des fleuristes' and 'oeillet giroflé'.
The masculine noun 'oeillet' means 'carnation'. Its singular definite article is 'l'* ['the'], and its singular indefinite article 'un' ['a, one']. The masculine adjective 'commun' means 'common'.
Together, they're pronounced 'uh-yeh kuh-meh'.
*The masculine singular definite article actually is 'le'. But the vowel 'e' drops before a noun that begins with a vowel. The temporary nature of that drop is indicated by an apostrophe: 'l'oeillet'.
