Introduction to the verb aguicher
The English translation of the French verb aguicher is “to entice” or “to lure.” The infinitive form is pronounced “a-gwee-shay.”
The origin of the French word aguicher can be traced back to the Old French word aguisier, which meant “to prepare,” and the Latin word accudere, meaning “to bring together.” In modern French, aguicher is most often used in an informal or colloquial context to describe enticing or seducing someone.
In the Plus-que-parfait tense, aguicher is used with the auxiliary verb “avoir” (to have) to indicate an action that had been completed before another past action. Here are three simple examples of its usage in this tense, with their English translations:

- Elle avait aguiché ses amis avec des invitations au concert avant qu’ils ne décident de venir. (She had enticed her friends with concert tickets before they decided to come.)
In everyday French, aguicher can also be used in the imperative form, such as “Aguiche-le !” (Entice him!) or “Ne m’aguiche pas !” (Don’t lure me!). It is often used in a playful or flirtatious manner.
