I have noticed an error in the automatically generated French pronunciation of this verb's conjugated tenses. As a native French speaker, I can guarantee that when this verb's stem is followed by an ending beginning with a vowel, it is pronounced \fɥi.j...\ and not /fy.j.../. For instance, the form "fuyons" is pronounced /fɥi.jɔ̃/ and not /fy.jɔ̃/ as indicated in the conjugation table. As in most French words containing a "y" placed between two vowels, the former vowel is pronounced as though it were combined with a following "i" (e.g. "lui" is pronounced \lɥi\ just like "loi" is pronounced \lwa\) and the latter vowel is pronounced as though it were preceded within the same consonant by a semivocalic "i" (which is to say \j\). If anyone reading this happens to have the authority to access the relevant code and correct this bug, this would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
