Plus-que-parfait (Pluperfect) Tense Conjugation of the French Verb baiser
Introduction to the verb baiser
The English translation of the French verb baiser is “to kiss.” The infinitive form is pronounced “beh-zay.”
The word baiser has its roots in Latin, coming from the verb basiare which means “to kiss.” In modern French, it is most commonly used to refer to the physical act of kissing, but it can also be used in a more figurative sense to mean “to deceive” or “to swindle.”
In the Plus-que-parfait tense, baiser is used to describe an action that had been completed in the past before another past action. It is formed by using the auxiliary verb avoir in the imperfect tense followed by the past participle of baiser, which is baisé.
