Introduction to the verb envider
The English translation of the French verb envider is “to empty” or “to clear out.” It is pronounced as “ahn-vee-deh.”
Envider comes from the Old French word “envider,” which means “to empty out.” It shares the same origin as the English word “void.” In everyday French, envider is most often used in the Subjonctif Plus-que-parfait tense, which is used to express an action that occurred before another action in the past.
Some examples of envider in the Subjonctif Plus-que-parfait tense are:
-
J’avais envidé le grenier avant qu’elle n’arrive. (I had emptied the attic before she arrived.)
-
Il avait envidé ses poches avant de partir. (He had cleared out his pockets before leaving.)
-
Nous avions envidé la cave avant que la pluie ne commence. (We had emptied the cellar before the rain started.)
In these examples, envider is used to describe an action that had already been completed before a certain point in the past. In English, this tense is often translated as “had + past participle.”
