What dose Gauche mean?

"Gauche" is a French word that means awkward, clumsy, or lacking in social grace. It's often used to describe someone who is socially inept or uncomfortable, particularly in formal settings.

Here are some examples of how "gauche" might be used:

* "He made a gauche comment about her weight."

* "The new employee's behavior at the dinner was quite gauche."

* "She felt awkward and gauche in her fancy dress."

The word "gauche" is pronounced "gohsh" with a soft "g" sound, like in the word "gem."

It's important to note that while "gauche" can be a negative term, it's not always meant to be hurtful. It can also be used in a humorous way to describe someone who is simply a little awkward or clumsy.
