Usage Note
Suceur is the agent noun from sucer ('to suck'), used for devices or organisms that suck — a vacuum-cleaner nozzle attachment, or a blood-sucking insect. It can also function as a crude insult in informal speech, so context matters greatly. The feminine form is suceuse.
Examples
"Le suceur de l'aspirateur est cassé."
Natural Translation
The vacuum cleaner's suction nozzle is broken.
