Show transcript
The final consonant of a word is often silent in French, called the silent final consonant (SFC). The -e at the end of words is also silent, called the silent final e (SFe). To say 'I' + -er verb in French, the verb ending is -e; we call this the 1st person singular of the verb. To say 'we' + -er verb, the verb ending is -ons; we call this the 1st person plural. The verb 'manger' (to eat, eating) behaves differently in the 'nous' form; it keeps the 'e' before the -ons.
