Passé Simple (Simple Past) Tense Conjugation of the French Verb désaccoutumer
Introduction to the verb désaccoutumer
The English translation of the French verb “désaccoutumer” is “to wean off/to unaccustom”. The infinitive form “désaccoutumer” is pronounced as “deh-za-koo-tuh-may”.
The word “désaccoutumer” is derived from the prefix “dés-” meaning “un-“, “acoutumer” meaning “to accustom”, and the verb suffix “-er” indicating the infinitive form. It is most often used in everyday French in the present tense or the infinitive form, rather than the passé simple (simple past) tense.
However, if used in the passé simple tense, here are three simple examples of its usage:
- Je me désaccoutumai de fumer.
(I weaned myself off smoking.) - Il se désaccoutuma de boire du café.
(He unaccustomed himself to drinking coffee.) - Nous nous désaccoutumâmes de l’horaire chargé.
(We weaned ourselves off the busy schedule.)
Please note that the passé simple tense is a literary tense in French that is rarely used in spoken language or informal writing.
