Passé Composé (Present Perfect) Tense Conjugation of the French Verb caquer
Introduction to the verb caquer
The English translation of the French verb caquer is “to lay eggs.” It is pronounced as “kah-kay.”
The word caquer comes from the Old French word “cacher,” meaning “to hide.” Over time, it evolved to have a more specific meaning of laying eggs, likely due to the fact that birds often hide their eggs in nests.
In everyday French, caquer is most often used in the Passé Composé tense to talk about past actions or events that were completed at a specific point in time, similar to the English present perfect tense. It is formed by conjugating the auxiliary verb avoir (to have) in the present tense followed by the past participle of caquer, which is “caqué.”
Here are three examples of caquer used in the Passé Composé tense with their English translations:
-
Hier, la poule a caqué trois oeufs dans le poulailler.
(Yesterday, the chicken laid three eggs in the coop.) -
Les oiseaux ont caqué toutes les matins pendant la saison de reproduction.
