Subjonctif Plus-que-parfait (Subjunctive Pluperfect) Tense Conjugation of the French Verb luger
Introduction to the verb luger
The English translation of the French verb luger is “to toboggan” or “to sled.” It is pronounced “loo-zhay.”
The word luger comes from the French noun luge, which means “sled” or “sleigh.” It originated from the Swiss-German word “lugi,” which means “small sled.” The verb luger is most often used in the context of winter sports, particularly sledding or tobogganing.
In the Subjonctif Plus-que-parfait tense, luger is used to express an action that has already been completed in the past, before another action in the past. It is formed by using the auxiliary verb “avoir” in the subjunctive imperfect form (aie, aies, ait, ayons, ayez, aient) followed by the past participle of luger (lugé).
Three simple examples of its usage in this tense are:
-
J’avais peur que tu aies lugé trop vite et que tu te sois blessé. (I was afraid that you had sledded too fast and that you had hurt yourself.)
-
Nous étions heureux que les enfants aient lugé toute la journée sans se plaindre. (We were happy that the children had been sledding all day without complaining.)
-
Il avait fallu que nous ayons lugé pendant deux heures pour arriver en haut de la montagne. (We had to sled for two hours to reach the top of the mountain.)
