Please be patient

Our volunteers look into many questions every day; sometimes it takes them a little while to answer.

Pro tip: you can rename the thread title with `.tr <thread name>`

Make it descriptive, including relevant context, but also to the point. This way you improve your chances of getting a more relevant and specific answer.

No, it doesn't end in a vowel

pliant spoke Jan 25, 2024, 5:36 PM

#

are there other situations in which you would connect them

#

exceptions and such

No

#

I don't think there's a single case where a word ending in a consonant elides in french
