Conditionnel Passé (Conditional Past) Tense Conjugation of the French Verb défriser
Introduction to the verb défriser
The English translation of the French verb défriser is “to straighten (hair)”. It is pronounced “day-free-zay” in its infinitive form.
The word défriser comes from the Latin word “defrisare” meaning “to uncurl or straighten (hair)”. It entered the French language in the 15th century and has been used to describe the action of straightening hair ever since.
In everyday French, défriser is most often used in the Conditionnel Passé tense to talk about a hypothetical or imagined past action. This tense is formed by using the auxiliary verb “avoir” or “être” in the conditional tense followed by the past participle of the main verb.
Three simple examples of défriser in the Conditionnel Passé tense are:
- Si j’avais eu plus de temps, j’aurais défrisé mes cheveux avant la soirée. (If I had had more time, I would have straightened my hair before the party.)
- Tu serais venu chez moi hier, je t’aurais défrisé les cheveux pour ton rendez-vous. (If you had come to my house yesterday, I would have straightened your hair for your appointment.)
- Elle aurait aimé que je lui défrise les cheveux pour son anniversaire, mais je n’ai pas pu. (She would have liked me to straighten her hair for her birthday, but I couldn’t.)
Note: In all three examples, the verb défriser is conjugated in the past participle form “défrisé” to agree with the subject of the sentence.
