subir

1. (transitive) to suffer
2. (transitive) to undergo, be subjected to
   • 1862, Victor Hugo, chapter 1, in Les Misérables, Tome I : Fantine, book 1:

     M. Myriel devait subir le sort de tout nouveau venu dans une petite ville où il y a beaucoup de bouches qui parlent et fort peu de têtes qui pensent.

     Monsieur Myriel had to endure the lot of any newcomer in a small town where there are many mouths that talk, and very few heads that think.

3. (transitive) to have (an operation, medical test etc.); to take (an exam)
4. (transitive) to put up with (someone or something)

This is a regular verb of the second conjugation, like finir, choisir, and most other verbs with infinitives ending in -ir. One salient feature of this conjugation is the repeated appearance of the infix -iss-.
