The English translation of the French verb climatiser is “to air condition” or “to air conditionate”. It is pronounced “klee-mah-tee-zay” in the infinitive form.

Climatiser comes from the French word “climat”, meaning “climate”, and the suffix “-iser”, which is used to create verbs from nouns. It is most often used in everyday French to describe the action of regulating the temperature and humidity of a room or building.

In the Conditionnel Passé tense, climatiser is conjugated by adding the auxiliary verb “avoir” in the conditionnel présent form before the past participle “climatisé”. The resulting form is “aurais climatisé” for the first person singular, “aurais climatisé” for the second person singular, “aurait climatisé” for the third person singular, and so on.

Example 1: Si j’avais de l’argent, j’aurais climatisé ma maison. (If I had money, I would have air conditioned my house.)
Example 2: Tu aurais climatisé la chambre avant que je rentre. (You would have air conditioned the room before I came back.)
Example 3: Ils auraient climatisé l’immeuble s’ils avaient su qu’il ferait chaud. (They would have air conditioned the building if they had known it would be hot.)

Overall, the Conditionnel Passé tense with climatiser is used to express a hypothetical situation in the past, where the action of air conditioning was not carried out due to certain circumstances.

Climatiser – About the French Conditionnel Passé (Conditional Past) Tense

The French “Conditionnel Passé” is a compound tense used to express hypothetical or unreal actions in the past. It is formed by combining the conditional of the auxiliary verb “avoir” or “être” and the past participle of the main verb.

NOTE: To take a deep dive into all the French tenses then see my article on Mastering French Tense Conjugation.

Formation

Start with the conditional of the auxiliary verb: For most verbs, use “aurais” (for “avoir”) or “serais” (for “être”) as the conditional form. 

With “avoir”: j’aurais, tu aurais, il/elle/on aurait, nous aurions, vous auriez, ils/elles auraient. 
With “être”: je serais, tu serais, il/elle/on serait, nous serions, vous seriez, ils/elles seraient. 

Add the past participle of the main verb to this conditional form. 
For example, if you want to say “I would have done,” you would use “j’aurais fait.” If you want to say “She would have gone,” you would use “elle serait allée.”

Common Everyday Usage Patterns

Expressing Unreal Past Scenarios

The Conditionnel Passé is often used to talk about actions that did not happen in the past, but you are speculating about what would have occurred if they had. It’s a way to discuss hypothetical situations in the past. 

Si j’avais su, je t’aurais aidé. (If I had known, I would have helped you.)
Il serait venu s’il avait eu le temps. (He would have come if he had had the time.)

It can convey doubt or uncertainty regarding past events.

Il aurait peut-être oublié notre rendez-vous. (He might have forgotten our appointment.)

Interactions with Other Tenses

Conditional Present

You can use the Conditionnel Passé in combination with the conditional present to describe past actions that were hypothetical at the time they were spoken about. J’aurais aimé que tu m’appelles hier. (I would have liked you to call me yesterday.) 

Indicative Past Tenses

You might use the Conditionnel Passé alongside indicative past tenses like the passé composé to contrast hypothetical and real past events. Il est venu hier, mais s’il avait pu, il serait venu la semaine dernière. (He came yesterday, but if he could have, he would have come last week.) 

Conditional Future

In some cases, you can use the Conditionnel Passé in combination with the conditional future to discuss unreal past events that could have consequences in the future. Si j’avais réussi mon examen, j’aurais un meilleur travail. (If I had passed my exam, I would have a better job.)

Summary
