Évoqueront

Évoqueront is the third-person plural form of the French verb évoquer in the future simple tense. Évoquer means to evoke, to bring to mind, to mention, or to call forth; it can also imply invoking a rule, precedent, or principle in certain contexts. Therefore, evoqueront denotes that “they” will perform such an action in the future.

Usage wise, evoqueront appears in formal or written French, including journalism, legal, or narrative prose. In everyday speech, speakers often use periphrases like “ils vont évoquer” (they are going to evoke / mention) rather than the simple future, though both are correct and interchangeable in many contexts. The sense of evoke covers bringing up memories or images as well as referring to topics in discussion, and it can extend to invoking a rule or principle, depending on the context.

Examples:

- Les témoins évoqueront les faits lors du procès. (The witnesses will mention/recall the facts at the trial.)

- Le gouvernement évoquera la nécessité de réformer le système. (The government will address the need to reform the system.)

- Ils évoqueront des souvenirs d’enfance. (They will evoke childhood memories.)

Conjugation note: evoquer is a regular -er verb, so its future endings align with other -er verbs: je évoquerai, tu évoqueras, il évoquera, nous évoquerons, vous évoquerez, ils évoqueront. Related forms include évoque (present), évoqué (past participle), and the passé simple évoquèrent (they recalled).
