- Ils auraient condamné le coupable s’ils avaient eu suffisamment de preuves. (They would have condemned the guilty one if they had had enough evidence.)
- Elle aurait condamné ces propos offensants si elle avait été présente. (She would have condemned these offensive remarks if she had been present.)
In these examples, the verb “condamner” is used to express a hypothetical situation or an action that did not actually happen in the past. It emphasizes the idea of regret or disapproval towards something that could have been different.
