Passé Composé (Present Perfect) Tense Conjugation of the French Verb driller
Introduction to the verb driller
The English translation of the French verb driller is “to drill.” The infinitive form is pronounced “dree-yay.”
The word “driller” comes from the Latin word “triculum” which means “a tool for threshing or drilling.” In French, it is most often used in everyday language to refer to the act of drilling or boring a hole.
In the Passé Composé tense, “driller” is used to talk about a specific action that was completed in the past. It is formed with the auxiliary verb “avoir” and the past participle “drillé.”
Example 1: J’ai drillé un trou dans le mur. (I drilled a hole in the wall.)
Example 2: Tu as drillé dans la mauvaise direction. (You drilled in the wrong direction.)
Example 3: Il a drillé plusieurs puits dans cette région. (He drilled several wells in this region.)
In these examples, the past action of drilling is completed and not ongoing. The auxiliary verb “avoir” agrees in gender and number with the subject. The past participle “drillé” remains the same in all three examples.
In summary, “driller” is a commonly used verb in French to talk about the act of drilling or making holes. In the Passé Composé tense, it is used to describe a completed action in the past.
