Conditionnel Présent (Conditional Present) Tense Conjugation of the French Verb coupler
Introduction to the verb coupler
The English translation of the French verb coupler is “to couple.” It is pronounced as “coo-play” in the infinitive form.
The word coupler comes from the Old French word “couple,” which means “a pair” or “a bond.” It was originally derived from the Latin word “copula,” meaning “a bond” or “a connection.”
In everyday French, the verb coupler is most often used in the Conditionnel Présent tense, which expresses a hypothetical or possible action. It is formed by adding the endings -ais, -ais, -ait, -ions, -iez, -aient to the stem of the verb.

- Vous coupleriez bien ensemble, vous devriez essayer de travailler en équipe. (You would make a good couple, you should try working together.)
