None of them make sense Explanation: sceller = to seal (as in sceau) or close hermetically. sellier = saddlemaker, leather artisan scellar was a good joke, though! |

cellar Explanation: VERY LIKELY : lingerie, cellier seems to fit your context. See following, taken from the GDT: Le chauffe-eau doit être installé dans le volume habitable. Il convient de le revêtir d'une jaquette isolante si par nécessité il ne peut être installé que dans un volume non chauffé : cellier, cave, garage, etc. GDT entry: cellar An above-ground storeroom for foodstuff or produce. cellier n m Pièce non voûtée, généralement fraîche, située au rez-de-chaussée d'une maison, et destinée principalement à la réception et à la conservation des vins, des denrées périssables. Notes : Le cellier se distingue de la cave en ce qu'il n'est pas entièrement souterrain. Lorsqu'il s'agit d'une pièce souterraine servant de cellier, on l'appelle « cave ».
