Passé Composé (Present Perfect) Tense Conjugation of the French Verb enverguer
Introduction to the verb enverguer
The English translation of the French verb enverguer is “to rig” or “to hoist”. It is pronounced as “ahn-vair-ger” in its infinitive form.
Enverguer comes from the Old French word “envergure”, which means “wing span”. It is derived from the Latin word “invergula”, which refers to the beam on a ship that holds the sails.
In everyday French, enverguer is most often used in the Passé Composé tense to talk about rigging or hoisting something in the past. Some common examples of its usage in this tense are:
- J’ai envergué les voiles avant le départ du bateau. (I rigged the sails before the boat’s departure.)
- Tu as envergué le drapeau au sommet du mât. (You hoisted the flag at the top of the mast.)
- Ils ont envergué le bateau avec soin pour éviter tout accident en mer. (They rigged the boat carefully to avoid any accidents at sea.)
In these examples, enverguer is used to talk about the action of rigging or hoisting in the past, with the auxiliary verb “avoir” (to have) and the past participle form of the verb “enverguer”. The English translations also use the past tense to convey the action that has already taken place.
