Futur Proche (Near Future) Tense Conjugation of the French Verb adresser
Introduction to the verb adresser
The English translation of the French verb adresser is “to address” or “to direct.” The infinitive form, adresser, is pronounced “ah-dreh-say.”
The word adresser comes from the Latin word “ad” (to) and the Old French word “dresse” (to set straight), which evolved into “adresser” in modern French. In everyday French, adresser is most often used in the Futur Proche tense to talk about future actions or intentions.
Examples:
- Je vais adresser une lettre à ma grand-mère demain. (I am going to address a letter to my grandmother tomorrow.)
- Nous allons adresser nos revendications à la direction de l’entreprise. (We are going to address our demands to the company’s management.)
- Est-ce que tu vas adresser une invitation à Marc pour la fête? (Are you going to send an invitation to Marc for the party?)
In these examples, the verb adresser is used in the Futur Proche tense to indicate an action that will take place in the future. It is often accompanied by the verb “aller” (to go) to form the Futur Proche construction. The English translations also use the future tense to convey the same meaning.
