Futur Antérieur (Future Anterior) Tense Conjugation of the French Verb lisser
Introduction to the verb lisser
The English translation of the French verb lisser is “to smooth.” The infinitive form, lisser, is pronounced “lee-say.”
Lisser comes from the Latin word “lineare,” meaning “to make straight.” It first appeared in the French language in the 12th century and has been used in various forms and tenses since then.
In everyday French, lisser is most often used in the Futur Antérieur tense, which indicates an action that will be completed at a specific point in the future. This tense is formed by using the auxiliary verb “avoir” or “être” in the future tense, followed by the past participle of the main verb.
Here are three examples of lisser used in the Futur Antérieur tense:
- Je vais avoir lissé mes cheveux avant la soirée. (I will have smoothed my hair before the party.)
- Il sera venu lissé sa chemise pour le dîner. (He will have smoothed his shirt for dinner.)
- Nous serons allés lissés les murs de la maison avant la nouvelle peinture. (We will have smoothed the walls of the house before the new paint.)
In these examples, lisser is used to indicate a completed action in the future. It is often used in a similar way to the English future perfect tense.
