What is a personal pronoun
What is a verb
What is a verb in the infinitive
What is a conjugated verb?
ER VERBS
When a verb has an “er” at the end that means it is in the infinitive form.
Basically the r = to in French:
Travailler – TO work
Manger – TO eat
Jouer – TO play
When you conjugate a verb you change it’s ending to make it match with
the personal pronoun. ER verbs all take the same ending:
Je = e je travaille
Tu = es tu mages
Il = e
il joue
nous = ons
vous = ez
ils = ent
nous travaillons
vous travaillez
ils travaillent
** notice that the first thing you do when conjugating is drop the ER.
** je becomes j’ when before a vowel: j’étudie
**when the inf of the verb ends in –ger, the nous form ends in –geons:
nous nageons
nous mangeons
nous voyageons
I go around the room and ask them if they do the yellow flashcards.
