Subjonctif Plus-que-parfait (Subjunctive Pluperfect) Tense Conjugation of the French Verb adoniser
Introduction to the verb adoniser
The English translation of the French verb adoniser is “to adorn” or “to beautify.” It is pronounced [a.dɔ.ni.ze] in its infinitive form.
Adoniser comes from the Old French word “adonis,” which refers to the Greek god of beauty and desire. It is most commonly used in everyday French to describe the action of embellishing or enhancing something or someone’s appearance.
In the Subjonctif Plus-que-parfait tense, adoniser is used to express a hypothetical action that would have been completed before another past event. It follows the same conjugation pattern as the regular -er verbs in the subjonctif mood, with the past participle “adonisé.”
Here are three simple examples of adoniser in the Subjonctif Plus-que-parfait tense:
-
Si j’avais su, j’aurais adonisé la maison avant l’arrivée des invités. (If I had known, I would have adorned the house before the arrival of the guests.)
-
Elle aurait adonisé sa tenue si elle avait eu plus de temps. (She would have adorned her outfit if she had had more time.)
-
Nous aurions adonisé la salle de réception si nous avions eu un meilleur budget. (We would have adorned the reception hall if we had had a larger budget.)
In all of these examples, adoniser is used to describe a past action that would have been completed before another past event, in a hypothetical scenario. The use of the Subjonctif Plus-que-parfait tense adds a sense of uncertainty or possibility to the actions described.
