Introduction to the verb immuniser
The English translation of the French verb immuniser is “to immunize.” The infinitive form, immuniser, is pronounced as “ee-moo-nee-zay.”
The word immuniser comes from the Latin word “immunis,” meaning “exempt” or “protected.” It is a combination of the prefix “im-” (meaning “not” or “without”) and “munis” (meaning “obligation” or “duty”). In French, immuniser is primarily used in medical and scientific contexts to refer to the process of inducing immunity or resistance to a disease through vaccination or exposure to the disease itself.
In everyday French, immuniser is commonly used in the Plus-que-parfait (pluperfect) tense, which is used to express an action that took place before another past action. It is formed by using the imperfect tense of the auxiliary verb avoir or être (depending on the main verb) and the past participle of the main verb.
