L’impératif Présent (Imperative Present) Tense Conjugation of the French Verb défourner
Introduction to the verb défourner
The English translation of the French verb défourner is “to remove from the oven” or “to take out of the oven.” The infinitive form is pronounced as “day-foor-nay.”
Défourner comes from the prefix “dé-“, which means “to remove” or “to take out,” and the word “four” which means “oven.” In everyday French, défourner is most often used in the L’impératif Présent tense, which is the imperative form used to give commands or orders.
Examples of défourner in the L’impératif Présent tense are:
- Défourne le gâteau maintenant ! (Take the cake out of the oven now!)
- Ne défournez pas le poulet trop tôt. (Do not take the chicken out of the oven too early.)
- Défournez les croissants quand ils sont bien dorés. (Take the croissants out of the oven when they are golden brown.)
In these examples, défourner is used to give a direct order or instruction, and it is conjugated to match the subject pronoun (tu, vous, or nous) of the sentence. In English, the imperative form is often translated as “take” or “remove” followed by the object.
