What is the stem of a french er verb?

The stem of a French -er verb is the part of the verb that comes before the ending -er.

Here's how to find it:

1. Identify the infinitive form of the verb: This is the base form of the verb, usually ending in "-er" (e.g., parler, manger, jouer).

2. Remove the "-er" ending: The remaining part is the stem.

For example:

* Infinitive: parler (to speak)

* Stem: parl-

* Infinitive: manger (to eat)

* Stem: mang-

* Infinitive: jouer (to play)

* Stem: jou-

Note: The stem is important for conjugating verbs in different tenses and moods.
