  1. to eat (consume food)

Old French

Verb

manger

  1. (Anglo-Norman) Alternative form of mengier

Conjugation

This verb conjugates as a first-group verb ending in -er. In the present tense an extra supporting e is needed in the first-person singular indicative and throughout the singular subjunctive, and the third-person singular subjunctive ending -t is lost. In addition, g becomes j before an a or an o to keep the /dʒ/ sound intact. Old French conjugation varies significantly by date and by region. The following conjugation should be treated as a guide.

Romansch

Alternative forms

  • mangiar (Rumantsch Grischun, Vallader)

Etymology

Borrowed from Old French mangier, from Latin mandūcō, manducāre.

Verb

manger

  1. (Puter) to eat

Usage notes

In standardised Rumantsch Grischun, mangiar is used for people eating and magliar for animals eating. When applied to people magliar means eating badly (eating like a pig). Some of the Romansch lects do not make this distinction (especially Sursilvan) and magliar is the usual term for human beings.
