* A verb expresses an action or state of being.
* Basic forms of verbs are infinitives.
* Infinitive form means “to” ______
(to play, to sleep)
* Verbs in vocabulary lists in this book and in
French Dictionaries are in the infinitive form.
* Many French infinitives end in –er
* You only use the infinitive form when you want
to say “to____”
* I like to swim.
= J’aime nager.
* -er verbs are “regular” verbs because their
forms follow a predictable pattern.
* When you change a verb from the infinitive to
make it agree with the subject of the
sentence, it’s called CONJUGATING the verb
* English verbs have 2 forms (conjugations)
* I/you/we/they play
* He/she/it plays
* Verbs in French have 6 forms (conjugations)
