Daily Verb Lesson: French verb grever - to burden (with)
The French for burden (with) is the regular ER verb grever.
To remember this, imagine a chef is burdened with GRAVY.
Grever can also mean: to be a burden on, to put a strain on.
Other words include:
- pesant (adj) : burdensome.
- le fardeau la charge (nm/nf) : burden.
- s'embarrasser de (vr) : to burden oneself with, to weigh oneself down with.
Some ER verbs ending in -ecer, -emer, -ener, -eper, -erer, -eser, -ever and -evrer add a grave accent to the mute letter e (è) before a silent syllable. This changes it to an open sound.
