Bonjour Einar !
The "i" version is considered more elegant.
Actually, little "French" fact : though you're only supposed to use "y" with "-ayer", French children tend to apply it to all "-yer" verbs, saying things like "je nettoye" :) It's obviously bad French, and systematically corrected by their parents, but it also sounds soooo cute ;)
Bonne journée !

C'est une réponse merveilleuse, chère Aurélie, merci beaucoup.
Je peux entendre la différence de la prononciation, croyez-le ou non. Donc, la question a été importante pour moi.
Amitiés
Einar
