    Package of dried beans, labelled mostly in French: Flageolets Verts
    Chevriers. The English text says Green Flageolets; no translation of
    Chevriers provided.

    According to an online translation dictionary, a chevrier is a (male)
    goatherd. There is something here I'm not getting.

    Thanks!!

    I didn't think of the possibility that it was taken from someone's name.

    And that site looks worth investigating.

    Chevrier is a variety of flageolet. Of course if either of you had
    actually bothered to search...I found this in less than 30 seconds:

    Very interesting this web site. But there are only few languages (french and
    english) to translate my italian phrases. Not german, for example.
