revigorer — French conjugation
to revitalize
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.
| Pronoun | French | English |
|---|---|---|
| je | revigore | I revitalize |
| tu | revigores | you revitalize |
| il/elle | revigore | he/she/it revitalizes |
| nous | revigorons | we revitalize |
| vous | revigorez | you (pl.) revitalize |
| ils/elles | revigorent | they revitalize |
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.
| Pronoun | French | English |
|---|---|---|
| je | revigorai | I revitalized |
| tu | revigoras | you revitalized |
| il/elle | revigora | he/she/it revitalized |
| nous | revigorâmes | we revitalized |
| vous | revigorâtes | you (pl.) revitalized |
| ils/elles | revigorèrent | they revitalized |
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.
| Pronoun | French |
|---|---|
| je | revigorais |
| tu | revigorais |
| il/elle | revigorait |
| nous | revigorions |
| vous | revigoriez |
| ils/elles | revigoraient |
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 ?
| Pronoun | French | English |
|---|---|---|
| je | revigorerais | I would revitalize |
| tu | revigorerais | you would revitalize |
| il/elle | revigorerait | he/she/it would revitalize |
| nous | revigorerions | we would revitalize |
| vous | revigoreriez | you (pl.) would revitalize |
| ils/elles | revigoreraient | they would revitalize |
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.
| Pronoun | French | English |
|---|---|---|
| je | revigorerai | I will revitalize |
| tu | revigoreras | you will revitalize |
| il/elle | revigorera | he/she/it will revitalize |
| nous | revigorerons | we will revitalize |
| vous | revigorerez | you (pl.) will revitalize |
| ils/elles | revigoreront | they will revitalize |
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.
| Pronoun | French | English |
|---|---|---|
| je | j'ai revigoré | I have revitalized |
| tu | tu as revigoré | you have revitalized |
| il/elle | il/elle a revigoré | he/she/it has revitalized |
| nous | nous avons revigoré | we have revitalized |
| vous | vous avez revigoré | you (pl.) have revitalized |
| ils/elles | ils/elles ont revigoré | they have revitalized |
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.
| Pronoun | French | English |
|---|---|---|
| je | j'avais revigoré | I had revitalized |
| tu | tu avais revigoré | you had revitalized |
| il/elle | il/elle avait revigoré | he/she/it had revitalized |
| nous | nous avions revigoré | we had revitalized |
| vous | vous aviez revigoré | you (pl.) had revitalized |
| ils/elles | ils/elles avaient revigoré | they had revitalized |
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.
| Pronoun | French |
|---|---|
| je | j'aurais revigoré |
| tu | tu aurais revigoré |
| il/elle | il/elle aurait revigoré |
| nous | nous aurions revigoré |
| vous | vous auriez revigoré |
| ils/elles | ils/elles auraient revigoré |
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.
| Pronoun | French | English |
|---|---|---|
| je | j'aurai revigoré | I will have revitalized |
| tu | tu auras revigoré | you will have revitalized |
| il/elle | il/elle aura revigoré | he/she/it will have revitalized |
| nous | nous aurons revigoré | we will have revitalized |
| vous | vous aurez revigoré | you (pl.) will have revitalized |
| ils/elles | ils/elles auront revigoré | they will have revitalized |
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.
| Pronoun | French |
|---|---|
| je | revigore |
| tu | revigores |
| il/elle | revigore |
| nous | revigorions |
| vous | revigoriez |
| ils/elles | revigorent |
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.
| Pronoun | French |
|---|---|
| je | revigorasse |
| tu | revigorasses |
| il/elle | revigorât |
| nous | revigorassions |
| vous | revigorassiez |
| ils/elles | revigorassent |
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 !
| Pronoun | French |
|---|---|
| tu | revigore |
| nous | revigorons |
| vous | revigorez |
