Futur Antérieur (Future Anterior) Tense Conjugation of the French Verb bailler
Introduction to the verb bailler
The English translation of the French verb bailler is “to give” or “to hand over.” It is pronounced as “bay-ay.”
Bailler comes from the Old French word “baillier” which means “to give, to deliver.” It is derived from the Latin word “bajulare” which means “to carry.” In modern French, it is mostly used in everyday language to mean “to give” or “to hand over.” It is often used in the Futur Antérieur tense, which is the future perfect tense in English, to indicate an action that will have been completed in the future.
- Je t’aurai baillé mon livre avant de partir. (I will have given you my book before leaving.)
- Ils seront baillés les clés de la maison lorsqu’ils reviendront. (They will have been given the keys to the house when they come back.)
- J’aurai baillé tous mes jouets à mon petit frère. (I will have given all my toys to my little brother.)
In all of these examples, bailler is used in the Futur Antérieur tense to indicate an action that will have been completed in the future. It is often used to talk about actions that will happen before another future action or event.
