    In German, BRISE is exactly sounding like English BREEZE and means the same. I don’t know French, but my translator says BRISE means “BROKEN” in French, and being French, I can only assume you pronounce the first few letters, then make a sound like clearing your throat.

      Broken would be “brisé”, not " brise"

      Brise is either “breaks”, i.e. " he/she breaks", or breeze, as in “a light breeze”.

      Also, it’s prounounced breeze in french. Although the r sound is, well, french.
