Examples from texts

Lettuces, cucumbers, grains, etc, set to germinate under glass bell-glasses, covered with black paper, transparent to the infrared, all germinate quicker than by the light of the sun, and then wither and die in about a fortnight.
Laitues, concombres, graminées, etc., mises à germer sous une cloche couverte de papier noir, transparent pour l'infra-rouge. Toutes germent plus vite qu'à la lumière solaire puis dépérissent et meurent en une quinzaine de jours.

It was a long while since he had passed that way, and he had never thought that the seed would sprout so thickly, for he had repeated a hundred times that nothing would germinate, so rotten was all the land.
Il n’était point passé par là depuis longtemps, jamais il n’aurait cru que la semence lèverait si dru, car il avait répété cent fois que pas un grain ne pousserait tant ces terres étaient pourries.

All those little ones thrown to the gutter, like superfluous kittens are flung into some sewer, all those forsaken ones, those wanderers of the pavement who beg, and thieve, and indulge in vice, form the dung-heap in which the worst crimes germinate.
Tous ces petits mis au ruisseau, ainsi qu’on porte à l’égout les petits chats trop nombreux, tous ces abandonnés, ces errants du pavé qui mendiaient, qui se prostituaient, qui volaient, faisaient le fumier où germait le crime.

Beside the ripening crops the woods waved their greenery, quivering with the eternal seeds that germinated in their shade, under the dazzling sun.
À côté des moissons mûres, les bois roulaient leurs ombrages, frémissants des semences éternelles qui germaient dans leur ombre, sous l’éclatant soleil.

People always forget that before Catholicism grew up and reigned in the sunlight, it spent four centuries in germinating and sprouting from the soil.
On oublie toujours que le catholicisme a mis quatre siècles à se former, à germer en un long travail souterrain, avant de croître, de régner au plein soleil.
