hésitons

Hésitons is a French word that translates to "let's hesitate" in English. It is the first-person plural present subjunctive form of the verb hésiter, meaning to hesitate. This grammatical form is often used to express a doubt, uncertainty, or a desire for caution within a group. It can be employed in various contexts, from making a collective decision to expressing shared apprehension about a course of action. For example, one might say "J'espère que nous hésitons pas à demander de l'aide" (I hope we don't hesitate to ask for help), where the subjunctive mood conveys a hopeful wish. The word itself encapsulates the act of pausing, considering, or being reluctant to act, and its subjunctive form adds a layer of nuance related to possibility, desire, or emotion. It is a common expression in everyday French conversation and literature, reflecting the human experience of deliberation.
