The English translation of the French verb empaqueter is “to pack” or “to package.” It is pronounced ahm-pah-ket-ay.

- J’avais empaqueté tous les cadeaux avant que mes invités n’arrivent. (I had packed all the gifts before my guests arrived.)
- Si tu avais empaqueté le fragile correctement, il ne se serait pas cassé pendant le transport. (If you had packed the fragile item correctly, it wouldn’t have broken during transportation.)
- Nous aurions empaqueté les affaires plus tôt si nous avions su qu’il y aurait une tempête de neige. (We would have packed our things earlier if we had known there would be a snowstorm.)
In each of these examples, empaqueter is used to describe a hypothetical past action that may or may not have actually occurred. It is often used in situations where the outcome could have been different if the action had been performed differently.
