This tense is formed by adding the following endings to the root of the verb: 1st person singular ‐ e 2nd person singular ‐ es 3rd person singular ‐ e 1st person plural ‐ ons 2nd person plural ‐ ez 3rd person plural ‐ ont • You can reach the root of the verb by taking "‐ er" from the infinitive ending: Infinitive Root Chanter Chant ‐ To sing Danser Dans ‐ To dance Regarder Regard ‐ To look at 6 ending: Infinitive Root Chanter Chant ‐ To sing Danser Dans ‐ To dance Regarder Regard ‐ To look at Posséder Manger Posséd – Mang‐ To possess To eat Brûler Brûl ‐ To burn • Here you can see how these verbs are conjugated: Infinitive Chanter Danser Regarder Posséder Manger 1st pers. sing Chante Danse Regarde Posséde Mange 2nd pers. sing.

Chantent Dansent Regardent Possédent Mangent Negative Sentences • In French, negative sentences are constructed by placing the particle "ne" in front of the verb and the particle "pas" after the verb: Je ne mange pas I don't eat Elle ne court pas She doesn't run Mon frère ne vient pas My brother doesn't come • If the verb is a compound verb, then you place the two particles in front and behind respectively, of the auxiliary verb: 7 Je ne suis pas allé I have not gone Elle n'a pas mangé She has not eaten Mon frère n'est pas venu My brother has not come • With negative question, you start with the particle "ne" followed by the verb, then the subject and then the particle "pas": Ne manges‐ tu pas avec nous ? Are you not eating with us? Ne vient‐ elle pas avec lui ? Is she not going with him? Ne regardes‐tu pas la télévision ? Are you not watching the television? • To answer a question with a negation, you start with the particle "non" followed by the negative sentence: Viens‐ tu avec nous ? Non, je ne vais pas avec vous Il mange avec son pére? Non, il ne mange pas avec son père Regardes ‐ tu la télévisio n ? Non, je ne regarde pas la télévision Don´t forget the following verbs that we studied in class before. They belong to the first group.

We do not have these verbs in the English Language but they are common in Spanish and French. Se lever To get up (you get yourself up) If the verb was not reflexive it would be 'lever' and you would need a direct object e.g. He gets his mother up. S' habiller To get dressed (you dress yourself) uno se viste a si mismo). If the verb was not reflexive, it would be 'habiller' and you would need a direct object e.g. She dresses her son. • When these verbs are conjugated they are accompanied with the corresponding personal pronoun: Je me lève I get (myself) up Tu te lèves You get (yourself) up Il / elle se lève He/she gets (himself/herself) up Nous nous levons We get (ourselves) up Vous vous levez You get (yourselves) up Ils / elles se lèvent They get (themselves) up • Here are a few examples: 9 Elle se lave She washes herself Je me rase I shave myself Nous nous réveillons We wake ourselves up Don´t forget the following verbs that we studied in class before.
