gruter

A very rare verb that you will almost never meet in modern French; it is listed in some dictionaries but has no everyday use. Learners can safely skip it and use the common verbs for the idea they need. Conjugates like parler.

• Ce verbe est très rare dans l'usage moderne. — This verb is very rare in modern usage.
• Les dictionnaires le mentionnent à peine. — Dictionaries barely mention it.
• On préfère employer un verbe plus courant. — People prefer to use a more common verb.

Don't try to use it in conversation or writing: it is not part of modern working vocabulary, and native speakers may not recognise it. Choose a common synonym instead.
