Subjonctif Plus-que-parfait (Subjunctive Pluperfect) Tense Conjugation of the French Verb briqueter
Introduction to the verb briqueter
The English translation of the French verb briqueter is “to brick”, and the infinitive form is pronounced as “bree-keh-teh”.
The word “briqueter” comes from the French word “brique” meaning “brick”. It is most often used as a transitive verb, meaning it requires a direct object. In everyday French, it is commonly used in the Subjonctif Plus-que-parfait tense, which is used to express a past possibility or hypothetical situation.
Examples of its usage in this tense include:
- J’espérais que tu eusses briqueté le mur avant que les invités n’arrivent. (I was hoping that you had bricked the wall before the guests arrived.)
- Il aurait aimé que nous eussions briqueté la cheminée avant de partir en vacances. (He would have liked us to have bricked the fireplace before leaving for vacation.)
- Je voulais que vous eussiez briqueté la façade de la maison avant l’hiver. (I wanted you to have bricked the facade of the house before winter.)
In these examples, the Subjonctif Plus-que-parfait tense is used to express a past action that was desired or intended to be completed before another action or event. The use of “eusse” in the conjugation of the verb briqueter indicates the past tense, and “que” introduces the subordinate clause expressing the desired action. The English translations also use the past tense to convey the same meaning.
