chanter en yaourt has a better chance of meeting CFI. Equinox 20:29, 1 May 2016 (UTC)Reply
I do like it when someone cites a source that suggests the word may not exist: "There's nothing available from Gallica, nor from wordreference.com, nor from the Dictionnaire de l'Académie Française, so (pending asking Francophone friends) I need to fall back on general web search."

Even better it's in the Dico des mots qui n'existe pas (Dictionary of words that do not exist). Renard Migrant (talk) 20:15, 3 May 2016 (UTC)Reply

It's actually used. Here are a few examples:

    • Et il programmait la plage aussitôt, repartait, one, two,three, four ! en yaourtant avec son accent épouvantable. (Stéphane Daniel, Si par hasard c’était l’amour, 2010)
    • On a fait comme dans le local, et Jo a repris le micro pour yaourter en english. (Maud Lethielleux, J’ai quinze ans et je ne l’ai jamais fait, 2011)
    • Je yaourtais, comme on dit, et quel plus bel hommage rendu à la langue américaine que cette maladroite singerie ? (Juan Goytisolo, ‎Jean-Marie Laclavetine, ‎Michel Le Bris, Je est un autre - Pour une identité-monde, 2010)
    • Voilà des semaines, des mois que j’écoute leurs titres en boucle, que je me réjouis à chaque nouvelle possibilité de les voir sur scène, que je m’acharne à yaourter sans honte sur leurs chansons et je réalise que je n’en ai jamais parler ici ! (lesmusicovores.fr/wordpress/tag/the-weasel-and-the-wasters/)
    • On ne comprend rien à ce qu'elle dit mais ça me fait penser à ces télés-crocheteurs qui chantent en anglais et qui bien souvent doivent yaourter sans que je m'en aperçoive. (forum.lixium.fr/d-1855365107.htm)

The first person past historic and future of that entry give a pronunciation /e/ for ⟨ai⟩. Is that correct? Korn (talk) 12:01, 29 September 2016 (UTC)Reply
Yes (in principle), but past historic is almost never heard. For future, I would say that ai is very often pronounced ɛ. Lmaltier (talk) 21:15, 25 November 2016 (UTC)Reply
