Introduction to the verb anhéler
The English translation of the French verb anhéler is “to pant” or “to gasp for breath.” It is pronounced as “ahn-eh-lay.”
The language origin of anhéler can be traced back to the Old French word “anhel,” meaning “shortness of breath” or “panting.” It is derived from the Latin word “anhelare,” meaning “to pant.”
In everyday French, anhéler is most often used in the Conditionnel Passé tense, which is similar to the English conditional perfect tense. This tense is used to talk about hypothetical or possible actions in the past, and is formed by using the conditional form of the auxiliary verb “avoir” or “être,” followed by the past participle of the main verb.
