Introduction to the verb carburer
The English translation of the French verb carburer is “to run on fuel” or “to carburet”. The infinitive form is pronounced as “kar-byuh-reh”.
The word “carburer” comes from the French noun “carburant”, meaning “fuel”, and the suffix “-er” which is added to many French verbs to indicate the action of a subject. It is most often used in everyday French to describe the action of an engine running on fuel.

- Je me demande si le vieux tracteur aurait carburer si on l’avait réparé. (I wonder if the old tractor would have carbureted if we had fixed it up.)
In all of these examples, “carburer” is used to describe the action of an engine or machine running on fuel. It is also commonly used in the context of a vehicle or machinery, but can also refer to any type of engine or motor that runs on fuel.
