************************* Wikipedia *************************
A château (plural châteaux) is a manor house or residence of the lord of the manor or a country house of nobility or gentry, with or without fortifications, originally and still most frequently in French speaking regions. Where clarification is needed, a fortified château (that is, a castle) is called a château fort , example Roquetaillade castle. Care should be taken when translating the word château into English: it is not used in the same way as "castle" is in English, and most châteaux are more appropriately described as "palaces" or "country houses" in English than as a "castles". For example the Château de Versailles is so called because it was in the country when it was built, but it does not bear any resemblance to a castle, so it is usually known as the Palace of Versailles in English.

The verb "désosser" means "to bone"; e.g., "désosser un poulet", "désosser un poisson". The noun meaning the act of removing bones from a carcass for consumption is "le désossement", so "désosse" would be a finite verb. This is the closest match with "dessose" that I could find.
