essayerons

Essayerons is a form that commonly appears in discussions of French verb conjugation. In standard modern French, the first-person plural future tense of the verb essayer is essaierons. The spelling essayerons is not regarded as correct in formal writing, as it misses the required i in the stem that appears in the future tense.

Essayer is a verb meaning to try, to attempt, or to test. Its related noun essai denotes an attempt or a trial. The verb follows a pattern of irregular conjugation in several tenses, with the present tense showing forms such as j’essaie, tu essaies, il essaie, nous essayons, vous essayez, ils essaient. In the future simple, the stem becomes essaier- and the endings attach accordingly (j’essaierai, tu essaieras, il essaiera, nous essaierons, vous essaierez, ils essaieront). The form essaierons is therefore the correct writing for “we will try.”

Usage notes emphasize that essayer, and its future essaierons, expresses intention or plan to attempt something, often with a sense of effort or experimentation. It is common in planning, proposals, and commitments, for example: Nous essaierons de trouver une solution. The form essaya— or essaya-something—without the i in the stem is generally considered a misspelling or nonstandard orthography.
