What does the word Viola mean in french?

Question

what part of speech is it?

Answer 1

"viola" is the past form of the verb "violer" which means rape or violate

Answer 2

viola is a flower or a musical instrument. The expression which means “behold!” is voila. It comes from a French expression literally meaning “look there!” In French it is spelled with a grave accent over the A, as voilà, but when it was adopted into English, it lost its accent. Such barbarous misspellings as “vwala” are even worse, caused by the reluctance of English speakers to believe that OI can represent the sound “wah,” as it usually does in French.

Answer 3

What everybody said before has a bit of truth...

The typical use of this word in french means "there" (like in "and now, it's done !"). It's written "voilà" in french. In english, it's bastardized by the word "eh voila" or "eh viola" (I've seen both).

There's also a musical instrument, called a "viole", in french, which is the somewhat ancestor for the violin.

And third, it's a form of the verb "to rape" ("violer" in french), as seen in the expression "il viola cette femme" ("he raped this woman").

I'm french, by the way, so sue me ;)

Answer 4

Voila, mean 'here it is' as in 'look, here it is.' It is an exclamation.

However, the word 'viola', as you wrote it, is the third person simple past form of the verb 'violer', meaning to assault or violate.

Answer 5

it's spelled voila--with an accent on the "a" to the right. It means "here you go" or "here you are"...it's like "bingo" in English. It's an adverb.

Answer 6

It means like "here it is"

i think its a noun. cuz it doesnt seem like anything else.
