morgue
/ˈmoɾɡe/ · B2 · noun · f
morgue
⚰️ Same word as English morgue, but you say the e at the end: la MOR-ge
Spanish took the word from French morgue, the name of the Paris building where unidentified bodies were put on display. The u is silent, so it rhymes with the end of English berg-eh. It is feminine: la morgue.
