énonceras

Énonceras is the second person singular form of the French verb énoncer in the futur simple, meaning “you will state” or “you will enunciate.” It is a grammatical form used to indicate a future action by the subject you in formal or narrative contexts.

Etymology and background: Énoncer comes from the Latin enuntiare, via Old French enonciier or enoncer, and its modern form evolved into énoncer. The word carries the sense of uttering, declaring, or presenting information in a clear and explicit manner.

Conjugation context: In futur simple, the full paradigm for énoncer is: j’énoncerai, tu énonceras, il énoncera, nous énoncerons, vous énoncerez, ils énonceront. Énonceras specifically corresponds to the second person singular and is used when addressing one person informally or in a narrative voice. Note that contemporary spoken French often favors other tenses for straightforward statements, but the futur simple remains common in literary or formal writing.

Usage and nuance: Énonceras expresses a definite future action of stating or declaring information. It can appear in instructions, legal or academic prose, and literary narration where a formal tone is desired. For example: “Si tu énonceras les faits clairement, tout sera compris.” (If you will state the facts clearly, everything will be understood.) The term emphasizes clarity and explicit articulation of content.
