Subjonctif Présent (Subjunctive Present) Tense Conjugation of the French Verb gourer
Introduction to the verb gourer
The English translation of the French verb gourer is “to make a mistake” or “to mess up.” The infinitive form is pronounced “goo-reh” with a nasal “oo” sound.
Gourer comes from the Old French word “gourer” meaning “to deceive” or “to trick.” It is most often used in everyday French in the Subjonctif Présent tense to express a hypothetical or uncertain action.
Here are three examples of gourer in the Subjonctif Présent tense:
- Il faut que tu ne te goures pas dans tes choix. (You must not make mistakes in your choices.)
- Je crains qu’elle ne se goure en croyant ça. (I fear she may be mistaken in believing that.)
- Il vaut mieux qu’on ne se goure pas cette fois-ci. (It’s better that we don’t mess up this time.)
In all three examples, the Subjonctif Présent tense is used to express a doubt or uncertainty about the action being described. The use of “que” after the verb indicates that the action is hypothetical or uncertain.
