Show transcript
[a] is pronounced as in 'animal'. The tu and il/elle forms of 'avoir' contain [a].
[è/ê] is pronounced as in 'tête'. The tu and il/elle forms of 'être' contain [è/ê].
Vowels with circumflex accents often show removal of letters from French words of Latin origin. English retains the 's'.
Most verbs take ‘avoir’ in the perfect tense, but movement verbs and 'rester' take ‘être’.
