French[edit]

Etymology[edit]

From Latin propagāre.

Pronunciation[edit]

  • IPA(key): /pʁɔ.pa.ʒe/
  • (file)

Verb[edit]

propager

  1. (transitive) to propagate, spread
  2. (reflexive) to propagate, spread

Conjugation[edit]

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