    This phrase means blow of mercy in french, and is used to describe the deathblow intended to end the suffering of a mortally wounded victim.
    It can also be used figuratively to refer to a finishing touch of any sort.
    While the correct pronunciation is similar to coo de grahce. It (in english) is usually pronounced as coo de gra...with the final s sound being left out.

      Any of the following may be used:
      Its science...
      Except when its not...
      Well.. Not on this earth. Respectively.
      NOTE: Coup de graces may not be utilized in tandum and/or against one another in the same argument.
