Introduction to the verb débloquer
The English translation of the French verb débloquer is “to unblock” or “to unlock.” It is pronounced as “day-bloh-kay.”
Débloquer comes from the French word “bloquer,” meaning “to block.” The prefix “dé-” adds the meaning of undoing or reversing the action, making débloquer mean “to unblock” or “to unlock.”
In everyday French, débloquer is often used in the Subjonctif Plus-que-parfait tense to express a past unreal action or possibility. This tense is formed by using the past subjunctive of the auxiliary verb “avoir” or “être” followed by the past participle of the main verb.
Example 1: J’aurais débloqué le téléphone si j’avais eu le code. (I would have unlocked the phone if I had the code.)
Example 2: Il est possible que tu aies débloqué la situation si tu avais été plus patient. (It’s possible that you would have unblocked the situation if you had been more patient.)
Example 3: Nous aurions débloqué les fonds si le projet avait été accepté. (We would have unblocked the funds if the project had been accepted.)
In these examples, débloquer is used in the Subjonctif Plus-que-parfait to express unreal or hypothetical actions in the past. The English translations also utilize the past conditional tense to convey the same meaning.
