[edit]Etymology
[edit]First attested as pescion in 980, from peis + -on, peis (“fish”) being from Latin piscis. Alternatively, but less likely, it came through a Vulgar Latin *pisciō, pisciōnem. Peis probably evolved into pescion within Old French to avoid confusion with its homonym peis (“peace”).
Noun
[edit]poisson oblique singular, m (oblique plural poissons, nominative singular poissons, nominative plural poisson)
