Introduction to the verb enthousiasmer
The English translation of the French verb enthousiasmer is “to excite” or “to enthuse.” The infinitive form is pronounced as “ahn-too-zee-ahz-may.”
The word enthousiasmer comes from the Greek word “enthousiasmos,” meaning “inspiration” or “divine possession.” It first appeared in French in the 17th century and was originally used to describe a state of being possessed by a divine or supernatural power. Over time, its meaning shifted to refer to a strong and enthusiastic feeling towards something or someone.
In everyday French, enthousiasmer is most often used in the Conditionnel Présent tense, which indicates a hypothetical situation or a wish. It is often used to express the idea of something that would excite or enthuse someone if it were to happen.
Examples:
- Si je gagnais à la loterie, cela m’enthousiasmerait énormément. (If I won the lottery, it would excite me a lot.)
- J’aimerais que mes parents viennent me rendre visite, cela les enthousiasmerait sûrement. (I wish my parents would come visit me, it would surely excite them.)
- Si nous pouvions assister au concert de notre groupe préféré, ça nous enthousiasmerait énormément. (If we could attend our favorite band’s concert, it would really excite us.)
In these examples, the Conditionnel Présent tense is used to express something that is not certain, but would bring excitement if it were to happen.
