couplé

Couplé is a term that can refer to several things, often related to pairs or combinations. In music, particularly in French chanson, a "couplé" is a verse or stanza, distinct from the chorus or refrain. It's the part of the song that develops the narrative or thematic content. A song may have multiple couplés, each telling a different part of the story or offering a new perspective.

The word "couplé" also appears in a culinary context. In French, "café couplé" refers to a coffee mixed with an equal part of milk, essentially a lighter version of a caffè latte or a cappuccino without the foam. It's a common coffee order in French-speaking regions, offering a balanced taste between strong coffee and creamy milk.

More broadly, "couplé" can simply mean a pair or a couple, used to describe two things that are joined or associated together. This usage is less specific and depends heavily on the context in which it is employed, often implying a harmonious or complementary relationship between the two elements. The core concept remains that of duality or a set of two.
