Introduction to the verb ressemer
The English translation of the French verb ressemer is “to reseed.” It is pronounced “ruh-seh-may.”
The word ressemer comes from the combination of the prefix “re-” (meaning “again”) and the verb “semer” (meaning “to sow”). It is a regular -er verb and is most often used in everyday French in the Subjonctif Présent tense, which is used to express a hypothetical or uncertain action.

- Il faut que je ressème les fleurs dans le jardin. (I need to reseed the flowers in the garden.)
- Il est important que tu ressèmes le gazon régulièrement. (It is important for you to reseed the lawn regularly.)
- Nous préférons qu’ils ressèment le terrain après les pluies. (We prefer for them to reseed the field after the rains.)
In each of these examples, the verb ressemer is used in the Subjonctif Présent tense to express a desired or recommended action. Note that in the Subjonctif Présent tense, the verb form does not change for different subjects (je, tu, il/elle/on, nous, vous, ils/elles) as it does in other tenses.
