Show transcript
The imperfect tense is used to describe how something or someone 'used to' be and what regularly happened in the past.
'il y avait' is the imperfect tense form of 'il y a', and means 'there used to be'.
When a word ending in a normally silent consonant is followed by a mute 'h', the consonant is heard in liaison.
