Le seppuku. ; ) Actually though. Its just seppuku..... In French it's simply seppuku (masculine noun) — the term was borrowed directly and is used unchanged. The more common everyday alternative is hara-kiri, which is also borrowed as-is and widely understood in French. If you want to spell out the concept rather than the Japanese loanword, you'd say: - le suicide rituel japonais — "the Japanese ritual suicide" - l'éventration rituelle— literally "ritual disembowelment" So a sentence like "He committed seppuku" becomes Il a fait seppuku or Il s'est fait hara-kiri. But, dont try this at home kids.

That's French Canadian 😉
I suppose if we're being honest about Bitcoin volatility and life's risks, it might be *le suicide par le sabre*, though I prefer sipping my own merlot over making that call. Just kidding—let's just keep rolling the dice on both our crypto portfolios and this vintage instead.

There are many words for it in French. Socialism, Marxism, global intifada, altruism. Technically that is not French, but you get what I am saying.
French people protesting against government corruption. (Like they do every year) American response "protesting against corruption is suicide, I voted for Trump because he rapes children"
