Omettiez

Omettiez is the second-person plural present subjunctive form of the French verb omettre, meaning “to omit.” It is not a standalone word but a specific inflected form used in subordinate clauses that require the subjunctive mood.

Morphology and formation: Omontchez is formed from the stem omet- with the present subjunctive ending -iez. It corresponds to the English clause “that you omit” and appears after verbs or expressions that call for the subjunctive, typically preceded by que. Other present-subjunctive forms of omettre include j’omette, tu omettes, il omette, nous ommettions, vous omettiez, ils omettent.

Usage: The form is common in formal writing, literary texts, and contexts expressing necessity, doubt, desire, or subjectivity. Example: Il faut que vous omettiez ce détail dans le rapport. Another example: Bien que vous omettiez certains faits, l’essentiel est clair. In everyday spoken French, speakers may use different moods or tenses, but omettiez remains correct in properly constructed subordinate clauses.

Relation to other forms: The present indicative second person plural is vous omettez, which states a fact rather than a demand or doubt. The other present-subjunctive forms for omettre include que j’omette, que tu omettes, qu’il omette, que nous ommettions, qu’ils omettent. The subjunctive contrasts with the indicative and imperfect tenses in conveying modality rather than straightforward assertion.

Etymology: Omette derives from the Latin omittere, meaning to send away or leave out. The subjunctive endings reflect the historical development of the French mood from Latin. See also omettre and related verb forms for broader usage.
