I.over¹ [Brit ˈəʊvə, Am ˈoʊvər] PREP Over is used after many verbs in English (change over, fall over, lean over etc.). For translations, consult the appropriate verb entry (change, fall, lean etc.).
over is often used with another preposition in English (to, in, on) without altering the meaning. In this case over is usually not translated in French: to be over in France = être en France; to swim over to sb = nager vers qn.
