Boîte

Luxembourgish Etymology lb fr boîte. Pronunciation lb [bwɑt] Noun f Boîtten Boîten company, business lb Betrib Firma letterbox lb Bréifkëscht lb automotive gearbox Usage notes The official LOD now prescribes the spelling lb Boîtten for the plural because the vowel is short (thus analogously to lb Site > Sitten). However, this is unintuitive here because the digraph lb oî is specifically French and cannot be confused with a long vowel. Accordingly, lb Boîten is still widely found in otherwise well edited texts.
