Subjonctif Passé (Subjunctive Past) Tense Conjugation of the French Verb dépatrier
Introduction to the verb dépatrier
The English translation of the French verb dépatrier is “to expatriate” or “to exile”. The infinitive form is pronounced as “day-pah-tree-ay”.
The word dépatrier comes from the prefix “dé”, meaning “to remove” or “away from”, and the noun “patrie”, meaning “homeland” or “native country”. It is most often used in everyday French in the Subjonctif Passé tense, which is used to express a situation that may have happened in the past but is uncertain or hypothetical.
1) Il est possible que je l’aie dépatrié l’année dernière. (It is possible that I expatriated him last year.)
2) Je doute qu’il se soit dépatrié volontairement. (I doubt he has willingly exiled himself.)
3) Je suis contente qu’ils aient été dépatriés avec leur famille. (I am glad they were exiled with their family.)
In these examples, the verb dépatrier is used in the Subjonctif Passé tense to express uncertain or hypothetical situations in the past. The conditional “il serait” (he would be) and the past participle “dépatrié” (expatriated) are used together to form the tense. The verb is often used in discussions about political or social issues, or in personal situations where someone has been forced to leave their country.
