couvrirez

Couvrirez is the French verb couvrir in the futur simple, second-person plural form. It corresponds to “you will cover” in English, with vous as the subject, which can be either the formal singular you or the plural you.

In the futur simple, couvrir follows a regular -ir verb pattern for the future, yielding the forms: je couvrirai, tu couvriras, il couvrira, nous couvrirons, vous couvrirez, ils couvriront. Thus couvrirez is used when addressing more than one person or speaking to a formal audience about a future action.

The verb couvrir has a range of senses. It can mean to place a cover over something (to cover a dish, to cover a roof), to shield or protect (to cover someone with a blanket), to pay for or include costs (couvrir les frais), or to report on or cover a news event (couvrir un événement as a journalist). The combinatory use with different direct objects yields diverse expressions such as couvrir un sujet (to cover a topic) or couvrir des distances (to cover a distance).

Examples:

- Vous couvrirez les frais de déplacement. (You will cover the travel costs.)

- Vous couvrirez le toit de tuiles. (You will cover the roof with tiles.)

- Vous couvrirez l’événement ce soir pour le journal. (You will cover the event tonight for the paper.)

Couvrir is etymologically rooted in Old French covrir, with ties to Latin forms meaning to cover or to surround. Couvrirez, as a standard futur simple form, is widely used in both spoken and written French to express planned or anticipated actions by the audience addressed as vous.
