Recorded use
Wiktionary examplesThese source excerpts show how amaranthe appears in context. They illustrate usage; the definition above remains the entry’s reference meaning.
Les amaranthes sont des plantes allogames auto-fertiles.
Au dehors, les foins blondissaient prêts à mûrir. Le bois des plus vieux sarments éclatait ; la vigne montrait ses premiers bourgeons. Les blés étaient verts : ils s’étendaient au loin dans la plaine onduleuse, où les sainfoins se teignaient d’amaranthe, où les colzas éblouissaient la vue comme des carrés d’or.
