Conditionnel Passé (Conditional Past) Tense Conjugation of the French Verb démerder
Introduction to the verb démerder
The English translation of the French verb démerder is “to manage/get out of a difficult situation.” It is pronounced as “day-mare-day.”
Démerder comes from the French word “merde” which means “shit.” The prefix “dé-” adds a sense of difficulty to the word, making it mean “to get out of shit” or “to get out of trouble.” It is considered a vulgar term and is often used in informal speech.
In everyday French, démerder is most often used in the Conditionnel Passé tense, which is formed by conjugating the auxiliary verb “avoir” in the conditional tense and adding the past participle of démerder, which is “démêlé.”
Three simple examples of its usage in this tense are:
- Si tu n’avais pas écouté mes conseils, tu te serais démêlé tout seul. (If you hadn’t listened to my advice, you would have managed/get out of the situation on your own.)
- Ils se seraient bien démerdés si on ne les avait pas aidés. (They would have managed fine if we hadn’t helped them.)
- Je me serais démêlée de cette situation compliquée si j’avais eu plus de temps. (I would have gotten out of this complicated situation if I had more time.)
