anesthésier — French conjugation

to anesthetize

Frequency#1565Regular

Indicative

Present (Présent) Regular

Use the présent for habits, what is true now, and what is about to happen soon. A single set of endings covers what English often splits into “I speak” and “I am speaking”.

Elle parle arabe et français.

Simple past (Passé simple) Regular

The passé simple narrates completed past events in a literary or very formal style. In everyday conversation people use the passé composé instead, so you mostly meet this form in books and journalism.

Imperfect (Imparfait) Regular

The imparfait describes ongoing or repeated past actions and sets the background — how things were, what used to happen, weather, feelings. The passé composé, by contrast, marks single completed events.

Quand j'étais petit, j'allais souvent à la piscine.

PronounFrench
jeanesthésiais
tuanesthésiais
il/elleanesthésiait
nousanesthésiions
vousanesthésiiez
ils/ellesanesthésiaient

Conditional (Conditionnel) Regular

The conditionnel is for polite questions and requests, “would”-type hypotheticals, and what someone said would happen. It is also the usual consequent clause in si + imparfait → conditionnel patterns.

Pourriez-vous répéter, s'il vous plaît ?

PronounFrenchEnglish
jeanesthésieraisI would anesthetize
tuanesthésieraisyou would anesthetize
il/elleanesthésieraithe/she/it would anesthetize
nousanesthésierionswe would anesthetize
vousanesthésieriezyou (pl.) would anesthetize
ils/ellesanesthésieraientthey would anesthetize

Future (Futur) Regular

The futur is for future plans and objective predictions. In speech, aller + infinitive is often clearer for the immediate future, while the simple future is common for facts further ahead or in writing.

Demain, nous dînerons chez eux.

PronounFrenchEnglish
jeanesthésieraiI will anesthetize
tuanesthésierasyou will anesthetize
il/elleanesthésierahe/she/it will anesthetize

Present perfect (Passé composé) Regular

The passé composé is the main spoken past for completed, bounded actions (often with a time adverb). Use avoir with most verbs; être is required for a fixed group of motion/inchange and all pronominal verbs, with participle agreement when necessary.

Elle est venue tôt, puis elle a téléphoné.

PronounFrenchEnglish

Pluperfect (Plus-que-parfait) Regular

The plus-que-parfait is the “earlier past”: one action was already over before another past moment. It answers “had already” when a story is anchored in a past time.

Déjà, il avait fini quand je suis arrivé.

PronounFrenchEnglish
jej'avais anesthésiéI had anesthetized
tutu avais anesthésiéyou had anesthetized
il/elleil/elle avait anesthésiéhe/she/it had anesthetized
nousnous avions anesthésiéwe had anesthetized
vousvous aviez anesthésiéyou (pl.) had anesthetized
ils/ellesils/elles avaient anesthésiéthey had anesthetized

Conditional perfect (Conditionnel passé) Regular

The conditionnel passé states what would have been true, plans that failed, and unreal past if-clauses (often with si + plus-que-parfait in the apodose).

J'aurais dit oui, mais c'était impossible.

PronounFrench
jej'aurais anesthésié
tutu aurais anesthésié
il/elleil/elle aurait anesthésié
nousnous aurions anesthésié
vousvous auriez anesthésié
ils/ellesils/elles auraient anesthésié

Future perfect (Futur antérieur) Regular

The futur antérieur marks an action that will be finished before a later future moment (by then I will have…). It can also suggest a conjecture about a recent past fact in formal or literary use.

D'ici samedi, j'aurai lu le rapport.

PronounFrenchEnglish
jej'aurai anesthésiéI will have anesthetized
tutu auras anesthésiéyou will have anesthetized

Subjunctive

Present subjunctive (Subjonctif présent) Regular

The present subjunctive appears in subordinate clauses after desire, doubt, fear, need, and many impersonals, usually when the subject of the subordinate is different. Learn common triggers: il faut que, je veux que, je doute que…

Il faut qu'il parte avant midi.

PronounFrench
jeanesthésie
tuanesthésies
il/elleanesthésie
nousanesthésiions
vousanesthésiiez
ils/ellesanesthésient

Imperfect subjunctive (Subjonctif imparfait) Regular

The imparfait du subjonctif is a literary and formal past subjunctive. In modern speech, the present subjunctive usually replaces it for the same meaning.

Bien qu'il fût fatigué, il continua.

PronounFrench
jeanesthésiasse
tuanesthésiasses
il/elleanesthésiât
nousanesthésiassions
vousanesthésiassiez
ils/ellesanesthésiassent

Other forms

Imperative (Impératif) Regular

The imperative is for direct orders and advice to tu, nous, and vous. For many -er verbs, the tu form drops the final -s of the present (parle!); negatives use the subjunctive-like forms in practice.

Fermons la porte, s'il vous plaît !

PronounFrench
tuanesthésie
nousanesthésions
vousanesthésiez
