immiscer — French conjugation

to interfere

Frequency#1158Irregular

Indicative

Present (Présent) Irregular

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) Irregular

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.

Imperfect (Imparfait) Irregular

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
jeimmisçais
tuimmisçais
il/elleimmisçait
nousimmiscions
vousimmisciez

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
jeimmisceraisI would interfere
tuimmisceraisyou would interfere
il/elleimmisceraithe/she/it would interfere
nousimmiscerionswe would interfere
vousimmisceriezyou (pl.) would interfere
ils/ellesimmisceraientthey would interfere

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
jeimmisceraiI will interfere
tuimmiscerasyou will interfere
il/elleimmiscerahe/she/it will interfere
nousimmisceronswe will interfere
vousimmiscerezyou (pl.) will interfere
ils/ellesimmiscerontthey will interfere

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
jej'ai immiscéI have interfered
tutu as immiscéyou have interfered
il/elleil/elle a immiscéhe/she/it has interfered

vousvous avez immiscéyou (pl.) have interfered
ils/ellesils/elles ont immiscéthey have interfered

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 immiscéI had interfered
tutu avais immiscéyou had interfered
il/elleil/elle avait immiscéhe/she/it had interfered
nousnous avions immiscéwe had interfered
vousvous aviez immiscéyou (pl.) had interfered
ils/ellesils/elles avaient immiscéthey had interfered

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

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 immiscéI will have interfered
tutu auras immiscéyou will have interfered
il/elleil/elle aura immiscéhe/she/it will have interfered
nousnous aurons immiscéwe will have interfered
vousvous aurez immiscéyou (pl.) will have interfered
ils/ellesils/elles auront immiscéthey will have interfered

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
jeimmisce
tuimmisces
il/elleimmisce
nousimmiscions
vousimmisciez
ils/ellesimmiscent

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
jeimmisçasse
tuimmisçasses
il/elleimmisçât
nousimmisçassions
vousimmisçassiez
ils/ellesimmisçassent

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
tuimmisce
nousimmisçons
vousimmiscez
