héberger

== French == === Etymology === Inherited from Old French herbergier, from Old High German heribergan, from Proto-West Germanic *harjabergu (“army camp, shelter”). Related to German beherbergen, English harbour. === Pronunciation === (mute h) IPA(key): /e.bɛʁ.ʒe/ === Verb === héberger to house, accommodate ==== Conjugation ==== This is a regular -er verb, but the stem is written héberge- 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. ==== Derived terms ==== hébergement === Further reading === “héberger”, in Trésor de la langue française informatisé [Digitized Treasury of the French Language], 2012
