Introduction to the verb accompagner
The English translation of the French verb accompagner is “to accompany.” It is pronounced “ah-kohm-pah-nyey.”
The language origin of accompagner can be traced back to the Latin word “accompaniare,” which means “to join or go with.” In everyday French, it is most often used in the Passé Composé (Present Perfect) tense to talk about actions that were completed in the past.
Example 1: J’ai accompagné mon ami au cinéma hier soir. (I accompanied my friend to the cinema last night.)
Example 2: Nous avons accompagné nos parents à la gare. (We accompanied our parents to the train station.)
Example 3: Elle a accompagné sa sœur chez le médecin. (She accompanied her sister to the doctor.)
In these examples, the verb accompagner is used to express the past action of accompanying someone to a specific place or event. In English, the verb “to have” is used in conjunction with the past participle of the verb, while in French, the verb “avoir” is used with the past participle “accompagné.”
