Etymology

[edit]

Inherited from Old French fegier, from Vulgar Latin *feticāre, ultimately from Latin ficatum.

Pronunciation

Verb

[edit]

figer

  1. to freeze
  2. to fix
  3. to congeal; to thicken; to clot
  4. (figuratively) to scare, frighten

Conjugation

[edit]

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