French Verbs FRENCH VERBS French verbs are formed by: a stem + an ending (-ER, -IR or –RE). To use the verbs in different tenses, we need to know some rules. These rules are simple and are applied to nearly all verbs. Unfortunately, some verbs do not follow theses rules and it is therefore important to know these IRREGULAR VERBS such as “aller” (to go), “faire” (to do), “avoir” (to have) or “être” (to be). Most of the time, the rule is: keep the stem, take away the ending and replace it by another ending depending on the person/subject. PRESENT TENSE (e.g.: I play) To write in the present tense, we only change the ending (the stem remains the same). Let’s have a look at the endings: they are different according to the ending of the infinitive: verbs in –ER are different from those in –IR or –RE. JOUER FINIR ATTENDRE Je joue finis attends Tu joues finis attends Il/Elle/On joue finit attend Nous jouons finissons attendons Vous jouez finissez attendez Ils/Elles jouent finissent attendent Can you think of the verbs you already know? With the help of your neighbours, write them in the appropriate column. Irregular in the present -ER verbs -IR verbs -RE verbs tense 1 PERFECT TENSE (e.g.: I played) Two groups There are two groups of verbs for the perfect tense: - the “être” verbs: refer to the MR AND MRS V.TAPE list in your vocabulary book - the “avoir” verbs: all the other verbs Three parts The perfect tense is made by 3 parts: subject (I, you...) + “être” or “avoir” in the present + main verb We already know how to do être” and “avoir” in the present tense. The ending of the main verb changes in the perfect tense as well. The ending For example, “I played” will not be “J’ai jouer” but “J’ai joué”! It is very simple, and you need to make sure you write this ending properly as examiners are very strict on this. So, how do we know how to change the endings? EASY! -ER verbs: -er turns into -é (jouer j’ai joué) -IR verbs: -ir turns into -i (finir j’ai fini) -RE verbs: -re turns into -u (attendre j’ai attendu) Unfortunately, there are some irregular verbs, and we need to know them. The main ones are: “être”(j’ai été), “avoir” (j’ai eu), “faire” (j’ai fait). So all the “avoir” verbs are very easy to form. Now, we need to concentrate on the “être” verbs, as they require a bit more attention. The “être” verbs Do you remember what we need to add at the end of the adjectives if they are feminine or plural? Yes, an -s or an -e (or even both). For example, if we are talking about a tall boy, we would say “un grand garcon”, but for a tall girl, we would say “grande”, and for more than one girl, we would say “grandes”. The “être” verbs work the same way: the ending of the main verb will also need an -e or an -s depending on the subject. 2 Let’s take an example: “rester” (to stay). As this is an –ER verb, we already know the -er will turn into -é. So, if a boy says “I stayed”, we would say “je suis resté”, but if a girl says “I stayed”, we would say “je suis restée”. And if a group of boys says it, we would say “nous sommes restés”, and a group of girls, “nous sommes restées”. Note: if we have a group of boys and girls, this will be in the masculine form (no -e). Summary: to write in the perfect tense, we need to answer these questions: - is it an “être” or “avoir” verb? - if it is an “être” verb, who is the subject? (Masculine? Feminine? Plural?) Last but not least, never forget the accent on the -e for the –ER verbs: if you write “j’ai joue” instead of “j’ai joué”, you will not be awarded any mark! Your turn now: do you remember “être” and “avoir” in the present tense? ÊTRE Je............................. Nous........................ Tu............................. Vous......................... Il/Elle/On.................. Ils/Elles..................... AVOIR J’.............................. Nous........................ Tu............................. Vous......................... Il/Elle/On.................. Ils/Elles..................... 3 Now, an “avoir” verb in the perfect tense.TRAVAILLER J’.............................. Nous........................ Tu............................. Vous......................... Il/Elle/On.................. Ils/Elles..................... And an “être” verb.ALLER Je (m)................................

Tu (f).................................. Nous (f)............................... Il........................................ Ils....................................... Elle..................................... Elles................................... THE IMPERFECT TENSE (e.g.: I used to play) Like for the present and simple future tenses, to do the imperfect tense, we need to take the ending of the infinitive and change it into: Je -ais Nous -ions Tu -ais Vous -iez Il/Elle/On -ait Ils/Elles -aient 4 So we have: TRAVAILLER Je travaillais Nous travaillions Tu travaillais Vous travailliez Il/Elle/On travaillait Ils/Elles travaillaient This goes for most of the verbs: refer to your vocabulary lists for the irregular ones. THE FUTURE TENSE (e.g.:I will play/I am going to play) In French, there are two future tenses, as in English: I am going to play and I will play. Both are very easy: let’s have a look. First, the “simple” future (“I will...”): to form this tense, we keep the whole infinitive and add the following endings Je -ai Nous -ons Tu -as Vous -ez Il/Elle/On -a Ils/Elles -ont TRAVAILLER Je travaillerai Nous travaillerons Tu travailleras Vous travaillerez Il/Elle/On travaillera Ils/Elles travailleront This pattern is used for all –ER and –IR verbs. For the –RE verbs, we need to take the -e away: saying “j’attendreai” would not be very easy to pronounce! This is why we will say “j’attendrai” instead. 5 Unfortunately, there are irregular verbs. These verbs will have their stem changed, but the ending will follow the same pattern as all the other verbs. You will have to refer to your vocabulary book to see which verbs are irregular, but here are some: Être je serai Avoir j’aurai Faire je ferai The second future (“I am going to...”) is even simpler! All you need to do is to know how to do “ALLER” in the present tense. Do you remember it? Je .......................... Nous...................... Tu........................... Vous...................... Il/Elle/On................ Ils/Elles.................... I am going to play Je vais jouer THE CONDITIONAL (e.g.: I would play) This is the last tense we are going to have a look at and is very easy. You already know one by heart: I would like = je voudrais. But how do we get this? To form this tense, we take the stem of the simple future (if you remember, in most of the case, this is the whole infinitive), and add the endings of the imperfect tense. Let’s take two examples. First, a regular verb: “jouer”. Future Imperfect Conditional: replace the tense ending ending Je jouerai -ais Je jouerais Now, an irregular verb: “être” Future Imperfect Conditional: replace the tense ending ending Je serai -ais Je serais 6 Now, try to fill these tables: Regular verbs Imperfect Subject Verb Future tense Conditional ending Je Retourner Tu Descendre Il/Elle/On Rester Nous Sortir Vous Arriver Ils/Elles Partir Irregular verbs Imperfect Subject Verb Future tense Conditional ending Je Aller Tu Avoir Il/Elle/On Faire Nous Etre Vous Aller Ils/Elles Faire 7 PRESENT TENSE (e.g.: I play) .................................................... 1 PERFECT TENSE (e.g.: I played) ................................................ 2 THE IMPERFECT TENSE (e.g.: I used to play) ............................... 4 THE FUTURE TENSE (e.g.:I will play/I am going to play) ............... 5 THE CONDITIONAL (e.g.: I would play) .................................... 6 REVIEW OF ALL TENSES ......................................................... 7 8 .

  • Leçon 15: Verb Forms
    Leçon 15: Verb Forms As you know, many French verbs end in ER in the infinitive. The INFINITIVE is the basic form of a verb, the one you would look up in a dictionary. Once you know all the forms of one ER verb, you know how to get the forms of the rest. The present tense of ER verbs is formed by taking the ER off the infinitive to get the STEM, then adding ENDINGS based on the subject. The present tense endings for ER verbs are: Je : E Nous : ONS Tu : ES Vous : EZ Il / Elle : E Ils / Elles : ENT Let’s take, for example, the French verb parler Infinitive = PARLER Remove the ER to get the stem => PARL Add the endings: Je PARLE Nous PARLONS Tu PARLES Vous PARLEZ Il PARLE Ils PARLENT Elle PARLE Elles PARLENT A chart, like the one above, showing all the forms of a verb is called a CONJUGATION. Verbs that follow a predictable pattern, like the ER verbs, as called REGULAR VERBS. NOTE: (1) when the subject is not a pronoun, but is a noun (Jean-Claude, le crayon, les pupitres), use the third person endings E or ENT depending on whether the noun is singular or plural. (2) Because the ENT ending is silent, the je, tu, il, elle, ils, and elles forms of the verb all sound alike. Only the nous and vous forms have a difference you can hear. (3) Verbs that have a G on the end of their stem have one special form: the nous form adds EONS: Nous mangeons, nous nageons for example.

If you take the time to read this chapter, you get a good grammar primer to help you through the jour- ney you’re about to embark on. The Parts of Speech Learning a language is easier if you know what it’s made of. To grasp the fundamentals of any language, your native language as well as French, you need to recognize the parts of speech, the various types of words that compose a language and how they work. The follow- ing sections give you the scoop. Nouns You should know three essential things about a French nom (noun): ✓ It refers to people,COPYRIGHTED places, things, or concepts. MATERIAL ✓ It has a gender (masculine, he, or feminine, she), and a number (singular or plural). You need to know the noun’s characteristics to make other elements of a sentence match it. That’s called agreement in gender and number. ✓ It can have different roles (called functions) in a sentence: • It can be the subject of the verb, as the noun professeur in this sentence: Le professeur parle. (The professor speaks.) • It can be the object of the verb, as the noun lune in: Nous regardons la lune.

  • F422 HISTORY of the FRENCH LANGUAGE Prerequisite: FRENCH 221
    F422 HISTORY OF THE FRENCH LANGUAGE prerequisite: FRENCH 221 Catalog Description: "A linguistic study of the phonological, morphological, syntactic and lexical changes which turned the Latin spoken in Gaul into modern standard French. No previous training in linguistics required." (Note also: no previous training in Latin or Old French required.) Language of instruction: English. Instructor: Dr. Nathan L. Love Texts: A History of the French Language Peter RICKARD The French Language: Present and Past Glanville PRICE We will be concerned with external and internal history. External history pertains to the cultural, social, political realities bearing on language change, whereas internal history concerns itself primarily with phonological developments that occur within the language, independent of cultural phenomena. The Rickard text outlines external history, and the Price text catalogues the internal history of the French language. Class instruction will consist of traditional lectures bearing on language structure and internal history. The emergence of Old French from Vulgar Latin will receive emphasis since it is the earlier stages of development which are most remote from us. The readings on external history will be left to the students to complete. Requirements: A research paper, midterm and final exam. This will be a course rich in learning opportunities. It will provide a brief introduction to linguistics (especially historical Romance linguistics), an overview of the structure of Classical Latin, the essential characteristics of the syntax and lexicon of Old French, the standardization of Modern French in the late sixteenth and early seventeenth centuries. Much that is arcane in Modern French grammar and spelling will become clearer, I hope.

This tense uses the verb venir (to come) followed by the preposition de and an infinitive verb. However, when you want to tell someone what you’ve accomplished, where you’ve been, and whom you met yesterday, last week, last month, or even years ago, then you need the passé composé. This tense recounts events that were completed at a specific time in the past. The passé composé is conjugated with an auxiliary verb — either avoir or être — plus the past participle. This chapter explains all about auxiliary verbs and how to say you just did something or that you did something at a precise point of time. We cover other ways to talk about the past in the next two chapters. Chapter 2 of Book V covers what used to happen, and Chapter 3 of Book V covers what had happened, would have happened, or will have happened.
