Using the imparfait tense, I am trying to form "was born." Would it be "néait" (in the il/elle/on form)? It doesn't look right to me..

thats because you you the infinitive. ne is the past-participle.

i believe it is naiturait

Actually, wouldn't it be "naissait"?

The imperfect form of naître in this case is "naissait." Right you are, Anonymous!

Sra (aka Mme)

P.S. Let me add something here! Why do you want the Imperfect = was being born? Depending upon the context, or exactly what you are saying, it would most likely be the passé composé = il est né (elle est née.)

I was told to use the imperfect.
