répartit

Répartit is a conjugated form of the French verb répartir, which means to distribute, allocate, or apportion. In modern French, it is the third-person singular form of répartir in the present indicative: Il répartit les ressources équitablement. The same spelling also occurs as the third-person singular form in the passé simple, a literary past tense, where it appears in contexts such as historical narration.

Étymologie: répartir originates from the prefix re- combined with a root related to partager/diviser (from Latin partit-). The sense evolved from dividing something into parts to distributing it among recipients.

Usage: The verb is common in everyday speech and formal writing, especially in discussions of budgeting, logistics, scheduling, and resource management. It is also used in mathematical or statistical contexts when describing the division of totals into portions.

Forms and related terms: The infinitive is répartir; the present participle is répartissant; the past participle is réparti (used with auxiliary avoir or être in compound tenses, as in il a réparti les ressources). The form répartit is the present tense third-person singular, and, depending on context, can also appear in the passé simple as a literary past tense form.
