homologuer — French conjugation

to homologate

Frequency#1809Regular

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.

Ils virent le roi s'approcher.

tuhomologuasyou homologated

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
jehomologuais
tuhomologuais
il/ellehomologuait
noushomologuions
voushomologuiez

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
jehomologueraisI would homologate
tuhomologueraisyou would homologate
il/ellehomologueraithe/she/it would homologate
noushomologuerionswe would homologate
voushomologueriezyou (pl.) would homologate
ils/elleshomologueraientthey would homologate

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
jehomologueraiI will homologate
tuhomologuerasyou will homologate
il/ellehomologuerahe/she/it will homologate
noushomologueronswe will homologate

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 homologuéI had homologated
tutu avais homologuéyou had homologated
il/elleil/elle avait homologuéhe/she/it had homologated
nousnous avions homologuéwe had homologated
vousvous aviez homologuéyou (pl.) had homologated
ils/ellesils/elles avaient homologuéthey had homologated

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 homologué
tutu aurais homologué
il/elleil/elle aurait homologué
nousnous aurions homologué
vousvous auriez homologué
ils/ellesils/elles auraient homologué

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 homologuéI will have homologated
tutu auras homologuéyou will have homologated
il/elleil/elle aura homologuéhe/she/it will have homologated
nousnous aurons homologuéwe will have homologated
vousvous aurez homologuéyou (pl.) will have homologated

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
jehomologue
tuhomologues
il/ellehomologue
noushomologuions
voushomologuiez
ils/elleshomologuent

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
jehomologuasse
tuhomologuasses
il/ellehomologuât
noushomologuassions
voushomologuassiez
ils/elleshomologuassent

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
tuhomologue
noushomologuons
voushomologuez
