Great is one of many English equivalents of 'chouette' as an adjective. As a noun, it's a feminine gender word whose definite article is 'la' ['the'], and whose indefinite article is 'une' ['a, one']. Its meaning as a noun is literally 'owl', and loosely a disrespectful way of describing a female senior citizen. Either way, it's pronounced the same: 'shweht'.

What is a female owl called in french?

une chouettePrecisionor 'un hibou'Chouette and Hibou are two distinct species of birds of prey.They can be distinguished by the presence of a feather on the head.
