[edit]

Etymology

Borrowed from Latin negligāre.

Pronunciation

[edit]
  • IPA(key): /ne.ɡli.ʒe/
  • Audio:(file)

Verb

[edit]

négliger

  1. to neglect
  2. to ignore (a detail)

Conjugation

[edit]

This is a regular -er verb, but the stem is written néglige- 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.
