"S'avère" means "turns out to be true/real"
There must be a better translation, but for now I just have the general idea of those words in mind :s

Permalink Reply by Ed la mouette on March 12, 2011 at 1:37pm Just a point of detail here.
S'avérer means "to turn out to be" strictly, not particularly real/true.
Examples :
L'examen s'est avéré plus facile que je ne pensais
Ce virage s'avère dangereux
