Royal vs royale

Hi! Can anyone tell me what is the difference between "royal" and "royale"?

  

Top answer

"Royale" is so rare in English that you will never hear it used properly. It has various specific meanings, one of which, a kind of beard, is obsolete. The online dictionaries seem to think it is a term of art from ballet and cuisine, but I have never encountered it.
