Introduction to the verb annuler
The English translation of the French verb “annuler” is “to cancel.” It is pronounced “ah-noo-lay” in its infinitive form.

In everyday French, “annuler” is most often used in the Conditionnel Passé tense, which expresses an action that would have happened in the past if certain conditions had been met. It is formed by conjugating the auxiliary verb “avoir” in the Conditionnel Présent tense and adding the past participle of “annuler,” which is “annulé.”
