French
[edit]Etymology
[edit]Pronunciation
[edit]Verb
[edit]désemplir
- (transitive, rare) to (partially) empty (something that is full up)
- (intransitive) to be nearly full (only used in negative constructions)
- 1829, Victor Hugo, Le Dernier Jour d'un Condamné, section XII:
- Ils se sont succédé à de court intervalles; il paraît que ce cachot ne désemplit pas.
- They succeeded one another at short intervals; it seems that this cell is always busy.
Conjugation
[edit]This is a regular verb of the second conjugation, like finir, choisir, and most other verbs with infinitives ending in -ir. One salient feature of this conjugation is the repeated appearance of the infix -iss-.
