Usage Note
Nichon is a vulgar, informal word for a woman's breast. It should be avoided in formal or polite contexts. The neutral medical term is sein (masculine), and the common informal but less crude term is poitrine (chest/bust). Use with caution — considered crude.
Examples
"Elle s'est fait refaire les nichons."
Natural Translation
