poursuivrons

Poursuivrons is the first-person plural future tense form of the French verb poursuivre, meaning we will pursue or we will continue to chase. It expresses an intention to act in the future, often regarding a goal, a process, or a pursuit of someone or something.

Grammatical notes: Poursuivrons belongs to the group of -uire verbs. The future stem is poursuivr-, and the ending for the nous form is -ons, yielding nous poursuivrons. This form is a finite verb: it functions as a verb with a subject and a tense, not as a noun or a participle. In written French, it appears as a single word: nous poursuivrons.

Etymology: The verb poursuivre is built from pour- meaning toward and suivre meaning to follow, with roots in the Latin sequi meaning to follow. The future form reflects standard conjugation patterns of -uire verbs in French.

Usage: Poursuivrons is common in formal, neutral, or planning contexts. Examples include: Nous poursuivrons nos recherches. Nous poursuivrons les négociations. In everyday speech, speakers may use autres constructions such as nous allons poursuivre or on va poursuivre, but poursuivrons remains correct in written or formal contexts.

See also: The related forms et lexemes include poursuivre (to pursue), poursuite (pursuit), poursuivant (pursuing), and the other tenses of poursuivre. These forms share the same semantic field of continuing or following a course of action.
