Transcription de la présentation:

(= for (how long) / since (when?) DEPUIS (= for (how long) / since (when?)

LOGIC!! Think about it… if I ask you the question: “For how long have you been waiting for the bus?”…. Have you stopped waiting for the bus? NO! You are STILL waiting for the bus to arrive! English makes it complicated by putting the verb in a generic PAST TENSE French is far more logical and keeps the verb in the PRESENT tense (because you still ARE waiting for that bus!)

DEPUIS DEPUIS (= for (how long) / since (when?) BE CAREFUL with the TENSE of the verb! French usually uses the PRESENT tense of a verb with DEPUIS (sometimes IMPERFECT tense of the verb – see later on in this PowerPoint) English uses a generic PAST tense

DEPUIS + combien de temps..? Depuis combien de temps tes parents habitent-ils à Atlanta? (= for how long have your parents been living in Atlanta?) Mes parents habitent à Atlanta depuis quinze ans (= my parents have been living in Atlanta for 15 years) Depuis combien de temps est ce-que vous apprenez le français? (for how long have y’all been learning French?) Nous apprenons le français depuis trois ans déjà (= we’ve been learning French for three years already)

DEPUIS + quand..? Depuis quand est ce-que vous êtes à l’école aujourd’hui? (= since when have y’all been at school today?) Nous sommes à l’école depuis 8 heures ce matin (= we’ve been at school since 8am) Depuis quand attends-tu avoir Monsieur Oliver comme prof? (= since when have you been waiting to have Mr Oliver as a teacher?) J’attends avoir Monsieur Oliver comme prof depuis toute ma vie (= I’ve been waiting to have Mr Oliver as a teacher all my life)

DEPUIS… Depuis combien de temps tes parents habitent-ils à Atlanta? Depuis quand..? Depuis combien de temps tes parents habitent-ils à Atlanta? Mes parents habitent à Atlanta depuis quinze ans Depuis combien de temps est ce-que vous apprenez le français? Nous apprenons le français depuis trois ans déjà Depuis quand est ce-que vous êtes à l’école aujourd’hui? Nous sommes à l’école depuis 8 heures ce matin Depuis quand attends-tu avoir Monsieur Oliver comme prof? J’attends avoir Monsieur Oliver comme prof depuis toute ma vie

With PRESENT TENSE… Tu attends le bus depuis combien de temps? - J’attends le bus depuis quinze minutes For how long have you been waiting for the bus? I have been waiting for the bus for 15 minutes

In English we use the PERFECT tense (I have been waiting for the bus for 15 minutes) In French, more logically, the PRESENT tense is used because at the time of speaking, the action is still going on (I am (still) waiting for the bus for 15 minutes)

With IMPERFECT TENSE… Tu attendais le bus depuis combien de temps? - J’attendais le bus depuis quinze minutes For how long had you been waiting for the bus? I had been waiting for the bus for 15 minutes

In English we use the PLUPERFECT tense (I had been waiting for the bus for 15 minutes) In French, more logically, the IMPERFECT tense is used because at the time of speaking, the action was still going on (I was (at the time) waiting for the bus for 15 minutes)
