French Spelling Change Verbs: Rules, Examples, andConjugation Practice

—— Verbs like acheter change from e to è
French spelling change verbs follow regular conjugation patterns but modify their spelling in certain forms to maintain correct pronunciation.
For some verbs ending in -e*er, the second-to-last -e changes to -è in the present indicative forms je, tu, il, and ils. The same change appears in the present subjunctive for these persons. The stems used in the simple future and the present conditional follow this change for all persons.
Understanding these spelling change rules helps you conjugate similar verbs such as :

acheter lever promener amener élever emmener mener peser enlever renouveler
