[edit] French

[edit] Etymology

From a reduced form of Latin navigare, present active infinitive of navigō.

[edit] Pronunciation

[edit] Verb

nager

  1. to swim

[edit] Conjugation

  • This is a regular -er verb, but the stem is written nage- before endings that begin with -a- or -o- (to indicate that the -g- is a "soft" /ʒ/ and not a "hard" /ɡ/). This spelling-change occurs in all verbs in -ger, such as neiger and manger.
