Passé Composé (Present Perfect) Tense Conjugation of the French Verb compulser
Introduction to the verb compulser
The English translation of the French verb compulser is “to compel.” It is pronounced as “kom-pul-zay” in the infinitive form.
The verb compulser comes from the Latin word “compellere” meaning “to drive together” or “to force.” In French, it is mostly used in formal or legal contexts to express the idea of forcing or compelling someone to do something.
In the Passé Composé tense, compulser is conjugated with the auxiliary verb “avoir” and the past participle “compulsé,” as in “J’ai compulsé” (I have compelled). Here are three examples of its usage in this tense:
-
J’ai compulsé les témoignages avant le procès. (I have compelled the testimonies before the trial.)
-
Nous avons été compulsés à signer le contrat. (We have been compelled to sign the contract.)
-
Elle a été compulsée à témoigner contre son gré. (She was compelled to testify against her will.)
In all these examples, compulser is used to express the idea of forcing or compelling someone to do something, often against their will. It is a strong and formal verb, and its usage is not very common in everyday French conversation.
