Show transcript
Some numbers are exceptions to the SFC rule and do not have silent final consonants, e.g. 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10.
When numbers 2, 3, 6, 10 are followed by a noun beginning with a vowel, the -s and -x are pronounced; this is liaison.
Avoir means 'to have, having'; it can also be translated into English as ‘to be, being’ with certain expressions.
Avoir is also used for age, e.g. ‘j’ai quatre ans’, I am four years old.
