Subjonctif Présent (Subjunctive Present) Tense Conjugation of the French Verb accrocher
Introduction to the verb accrocher
The English translation of the French verb accrocher is “to hang” or “to hook”. The infinitive form is pronounced as “ah-kroh-shay”.
The word accrocher comes from the Old French word “acrochier”, which has roots in the Latin word “accroccare”, meaning “to hook”. In everyday French, accrocher is most often used as a transitive verb, meaning it requires a direct object. It can also be used reflexively as “s’accrocher”, meaning “to cling to” or “to hold on to”.
Examples of its usage in the Subjonctif Présent tense are:
- J’espère que tu accroches bien le tableau au mur. (I hope you hang the painting well on the wall.)
- Il faut que nous accrochions ces photos avant la fête. (We have to hang these pictures before the party.)
- Je doute que les clous accrochent assez pour soutenir le poids. (I doubt the nails will hold enough to support the weight.)
In all these examples, the verb accrocher is followed by the subjonctif présent tense, as it expresses doubt, hope or necessity. The English translations also use the present subjunctive tense in similar constructions.
