Subjonctif Passé (Subjunctive Past) Tense Conjugation of the French Verb difformer
Introduction to the verb difformer
The English translation of the French verb difformer is “to deform” or “to distort.” The infinitive form is pronounced as “dee-for-may.”
The word difformer comes from the Latin word “deformare,” meaning “to shape” or “to form.” It entered the French language in the 13th century.
In everyday French, the verb difformer is most often used in the Subjonctif Passé tense, which is the past subjunctive tense. This tense is used to express actions that are uncertain or hypothetical in the past.
Three examples of using difformer in the Subjonctif Passé tense are:
- Il faut que tu aies difformé la vérité. (You must have distorted the truth.)
- Je doute qu’il ait difformé les faits. (I doubt that he distorted the facts.)
- Il est possible qu’elle ait difformé la réalité. (It’s possible that she distorted the reality.)
In these examples, the verb difformer is conjugated in the Subjonctif Passé tense to agree with the subject of the sentence, and it is preceded by the auxiliary verb “avoir” (to have).
In English, these sentences would be translated as:
- You must have distorted the truth.
- I doubt he distorted the facts.
- It’s possible she distorted the reality.
