Futur Antérieur (Future Anterior) Tense Conjugation of the French Verb envelopper
Introduction to the verb envelopper
The English translation of the French verb envelopper is “to wrap” or “to envelop.” The infinitive form is pronounced as “ahn-ve-lo-peh.”
Envelopper comes from the Old French word envoluper, which means “to wrap up.” It is derived from the Latin word involvere, which has the same meaning.
In everyday French, envelopper is most often used in the Futur Antérieur tense, which is the future perfect tense in English. This tense is used to express an action that will be completed in the future before another action takes place. It is formed with the future tense of the auxiliary verb avoir or être and the past participle of the main verb, in this case, envelopper.
Here are three simple examples of its usage in this tense, with the respective English translations:
- Je l’aurai enveloppé avant qu’il arrive. (I will have wrapped it up before he arrives.)
- Ils seront partis avant que je n’aie pu les envelopper. (They will have left before I could wrap them up.)
- Quand tu auras fini de manger, j’aurai déjà enveloppé les cadeaux. (When you finish eating, I will have already wrapped the presents.)
In all of these examples, the action of wrapping or enveloping (envelopper) will be completed before the other action takes place. This tense is often used in storytelling or in making plans for the future.
