Futur Proche (Near Future) Tense Conjugation of the French Verb dégager
Introduction to the verb dégager
The English translation of the French verb dégager is “to release,” “to free,” or “to clear.” The infinitive form is pronounced as “dey-ga-zhey.”
Défrançais is a French verb that comes from the Old French word “desgager,” which means “to release” or “to free.” It can also be traced back to the Latin word “dis-,” meaning “apart,” and “gagium,” meaning “obstacle.” In everyday French, dégager is often used in the Futur Proche tense, which is formed by using the auxiliary verb “aller” in the present tense, followed by the infinitive form of the verb.
Three examples of dégager in the Futur Proche tense are:
- Je vais dégager la table ce soir. (I am going to clear the table tonight.)
- Ils vont dégager de l’espace pour la nouvelle piscine. (They are going to free up some space for the new pool.)
- Tu vas dégager ta chambre avant qu’on arrive. (You are going to tidy up your room before we arrive.)
In each of these examples, dégager is used to express an action that will take place in the near future. It can also be used in the present tense to describe an ongoing or habitual action, such as “Je dégage toujours ma voiture avant de partir” (I always clear my car before leaving). In addition, dégager can also have a figurative meaning, such as “to clarify” or “to disentangle,” as in “Cela va dégager la situation” (That will clarify the situation).
