Passé Composé (Present Perfect) Tense Conjugation of the French Verb débalourder
Introduction to the verb débalourder
The English translation of the French verb débalourder is “to clean up” or “to tidy up”. The infinitive form is pronounced as “deh-bah-loohr-deh”.
The word débalourder comes from the combination of the prefix “dé-” meaning “undo” and the word “balourd” meaning “awkward” or “clumsy”. Together, débalourder can be understood as “undo clumsiness”, implying the act of tidying up or organizing a messy or disorderly space.
In everyday French, débalourder is most often used in the Passé Composé (Present Perfect) tense to describe a completed action of cleaning or tidying up. Some examples of its usage in this tense are:
- J’ai débalourdé ma chambre ce matin. (I cleaned up my room this morning.)
- Nous avons débalourdé la cuisine avant de commencer à cuisiner. (We tidied up the kitchen before starting to cook.)
- Tu as débalourdé le salon, c’est très bien rangé maintenant. (You cleaned up the living room, it’s very tidy now.)
In these examples, débalourder is used as a transitive verb, meaning it requires a direct object (e.g. ma chambre, la cuisine, le salon) to specify what is being cleaned or tidied up.
