Subjonctif Plus-que-parfait (Subjunctive Pluperfect) Tense Conjugation of the French Verb emprésurer
Introduction to the verb emprésurer
The English translation of the French verb emprésurer is “to impregnate.”
The infinitive form of emprésurer is pronounced as “ahm-preh-zoo-ray.”
Emprésurer is derived from the French word “présure,” which means rennet, a substance used in cheese-making to coagulate milk. In everyday French, emprésurer is most often used in the Subjonctif Plus-que-parfait tense to express a past action that took place before another past action.
Examples:
- J’avais emprésuré le lait avant qu’il ne soit transformé en fromage. (I had impregnated the milk before it was turned into cheese.)
- Il avait emprésuré le tissu avant de le teindre en bleu. (He had impregnated the fabric before dyeing it blue.)
- Elle avait emprésuré la viande pour la rendre plus tendre avant de la cuire. (She had impregnated the meat to tenderize it before cooking it.)
In all of these examples, the action of emprésurer (impregnating) took place before another past action (turning into cheese, dyeing, cooking), and the use of the Subjonctif Plus-que-parfait tense indicates that the first action was completed before the second one.
