Conditionnel Présent (Conditional Present) Tense Conjugation of the French Verb broyer
Introduction to the verb broyer
The English translation of the French verb broyer is “to crush, grind, or break into pieces.” The infinitive form of broyer is pronounced “brwah-yay.”
The word broyer comes from the Old French verb “broyer,” which means “to grind or crush.” It ultimately comes from the Latin word “brusiare,” which has the same meaning.
In everyday French, broyer is most often used in the conditionnel présent tense to express a hypothetical or uncertain action in the present. It is formed by conjugating the verb avoir in the conditionnel présent tense (j’aurais, tu aurais, il/elle aurait, nous aurions, vous auriez, ils/elles auraient) and adding the past participle of broyer (broyé).
Example 1: Si j’avais un marteau, je broyerais ces branches pour les faire rentrer dans le sac. (If I had a hammer, I would crush these branches to fit them into the bag.)
Example 2: Tu ferais mieux de ne pas broyer tes crayons, ils sont très fragiles. (You should not grind your pencils, they are very fragile.)
Example 3: Si nous avions plus de temps, nous aurions broyé les grains de café nous-mêmes. (If we had more time, we would have ground the coffee beans ourselves.)
