message 15: by Cait Sith (new)

Cait Sith Fairy (willowkeeper) | 143 comments Mod
all you know.


☮Artemis(I'm a Shawol)♬✨ (thalia98) | 50 comments omg, there's so much.

um..i'll teach you how to conjugate a verb.

there are 3 types of verbs: er, ir, and re

to conjugate an er verb, you must have people.

Singular

je-I
tu-you
il-he
elle-she
----------------
Plural

nous-we
vous-you
ils- they(masculine)
elles-they(feminine)


message 17: by Cait Sith (new)

Cait Sith Fairy (willowkeeper) | 143 comments Mod
ok


☮Artemis(I'm a Shawol)♬✨ (thalia98) | 50 comments to conjugate an er verb, you chop of the er and are left with the stem.

aimer- to like ----> aimer

j'aim
tu aim
il aim
ell aim
---------
nous aim
vous aim
ils aim
elles aim

Cait Sith Fairy (willowkeeper) | 143 comments Mod
ok


message 20: by [deleted user] (new)

Sry im late. Was getting braces. Ill write all this down.


☮Artemis(I'm a Shawol)♬✨ (thalia98) | 50 comments kk

by the way, whenever a verb starts with a vowel, you drop the e in je
now, all the subject pronouns's verb gets different endings.
j'aim e
tu aim es
il aim e
elle aim e
----------
nous aim ons
vous aim ez
ils aim ent
elles aim ent


message 22: by [deleted user] (new)

Wait. How did u get all those endings. Im confused.

Cait Sith Fairy (willowkeeper) | 143 comments Mod

message 24: by [deleted user] (new)

Bye johnny.


☮Artemis(I'm a Shawol)♬✨ (thalia98) | 50 comments it's just the way that the language works. each er verb gets it's own ending: e, es, e, ons, ez, ent


message 27: by [deleted user] (new)

Got it. So is that all for today?


☮Artemis(I'm a Shawol)♬✨ (thalia98) | 50 comments yeah, i don't want johnny to be confused when he comes back.

omy your like madam


message 47: by [deleted user] (new)

lol


☮Artemis(I'm a Shawol)♬✨ (thalia98) | 50 comments here are some irregular verbs: être, avoir, aller, faire

these verbs do not use the same endings as regular verbs. they are not regular, ergo, they are irregular. these verbs do not have any rules, so you just have to memorize their conjugations.

Wooow. Glad I dont have french again till saturday.


☮Artemis(I'm a Shawol)♬✨ (thalia98) | 50 comments être
