préjuger

French

Etymology

From pré- + juger; adaptation of Latin praeiudicare.

Pronunciation

  • IPA(key): /pʁe.ʒy.ʒe/
  • (file)

Verb

préjuger

  1. (transitive) to prejudge
  2. to foresee; say in advance

Conjugation

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