génèrons

Générons is a French verb form derived from générer, meaning to generate or produce. It is the first-person plural form of the verb in the present tense, corresponding to nous générons in standard present indicative. The form générons is also used as the inclusive imperative “générons,” equivalent to “let us generate,” which is common in collaborative or motivational contexts.

Orthography and morphology: Générons is spelled with two accented e letters (générons), reflecting the regular -er verb conjugation in the present tense for the nous form. In pronunciation, the form starts with the /ʒ/ sound typical of the letter g before é, followed by nasalization at the final -ons in fluent speech.

Usage notes: In ordinary statements, génèrons expresses ongoing or habitual generation, as in Nous générons des rapports chaque semaine (We generate reports every week). In the imperative sense, Générons libère a directive, inviting a group to undertake a generation task together, as in Générons des idées pour ce projet (Let us generate ideas for this project). The context usually makes clear whether it is the indicative “we generate” or the imperative “let’s generate.”

Etymology and related terms: Générer comes from the Latin generare, from genus and gener- root related to birth or creation. Related nouns include génération (generation) and générateur (generator). The form générons shares this root, appearing in various conjugated moods and tenses as part of the same verb family.
