There is a verb in french, which doesn't have an exact conjugation, ie. It is made by a combination of verbs and nouns, I call such verbs for the sake of this answer, 'combination verbs'. The english word for this verb is 'To bake' and the french equivalent is, 'Faire cuire au four', in which, 'Faire cuire' collectively mean 'To cook' and 'Au four' collectively mean the 'preposition + article + noun' - 'In the oven', therefore the literal meaning of the phrase is, 'To cook in the oven' equivalent to 'To bake'. Ya!! The meaning is simple but the usage is a little complicated.
