* No direct equivalent: French doesn't use the word "brush" in the same way when referring to chalk. They typically use verbs like "écrire" (to write), "dessiner" (to draw), or "tracer" (to trace) with "à la craie" (with chalk).
* Possible translations:
* "Craie à écrire" (literally "writing chalk"): This is the most common way to refer to chalk used for writing or drawing.
* "Pinceau à craie" (literally "chalk brush"): This translation is less common, and may be understood as a specific type of brush designed for chalk, but isn't as widely used as "craie à écrire".
* "Craie de couleur" (colored chalk): This refers to colored chalk sticks, often used for drawing.
In most situations, using "craie à écrire" or "craie de couleur" will be the most natural and understandable way to refer to chalk.
If you want to be more specific about the type of chalk or the way it is used, you can add further details. For example:
* "Craie pour tableau noir" (chalk for a blackboard)
* "Craie pour tableau blanc" (chalk for a whiteboard)
* "Craie pour dessin" (chalk for drawing)
