Subjonctif Plus-que-parfait (Subjunctive Pluperfect) Tense Conjugation of the French Verb excréter
Introduction to the verb excréter
The English translation of the French verb excréter is “to excrete.” It is pronounced as “eks-krey-ter.”
The word excréter comes from the Latin “excrescere,” meaning “to grow out.” In everyday French, it is most often used in the Subjonctif Plus-que-parfait tense, which is the past subjunctive tense. This tense is used to express an action that was completed before another past action or event.
Here are three examples of excréter in the Subjonctif Plus-que-parfait tense, with their respective English translations:
- J’étais arrivé à l’hôpital avant qu’il n’ait excrété le poison de son corps.
(I had arrived at the hospital before he had excreted the poison from his body.) - Ils étaient partis avant que le chat n’ait excrété dans la litière.
(They had left before the cat had excreted in the litter box.) - Elle avait nettoyé la cage avant que le lapin n’ait excrété.
(She had cleaned the cage before the rabbit had excreted.)
In each of these examples, the action of excreting happened before the main action in the past, and the use of the Subjonctif Plus-que-parfait tense emphasizes this sequence of events.
