Conditionnel Passé (Conditional Past) Tense Conjugation of the French Verb charrier
Introduction to the verb charrier
The English translation of the French verb charrier is “to tease” or “to mock.” It is pronounced “shah-ree-ay.”
The word charrier comes from the Old French verb charrier, which meant “to load onto a cart or wagon.” This evolved to also mean “to make fun of” or “to taunt,” likely because loading items onto a cart can sometimes be a difficult or comical task.
In everyday French, charrier is most often used in the Conditionnel Passé tense, which expresses a hypothetical or unreal action in the past. It is formed by using the conditional form of the auxiliary verb avoir or être followed by the past participle of charrier (charrié).
