J’aime chanter! Je chante bien! J’ (Je) aime. chanter. Je. chante. II. Un pacquet! J’aime chanter! Je chante bien! Were you able to understand both sentences? 1) The first sentence means: I love to sing! J’ (Je) The subject is and is a pronoun! The verb is aime. The infinitive is chanter. 2) The second sentence means: I sing well! The subject is Je. The verb is chante. The adverb is bien. There is no infinitive. There is only a verb!

J’aime chanter! ( I like to sing!) Je chante bien! ( I sing well!) II. Un pacquet! J’aime chanter! ( I like to sing!) Je chante bien! ( I sing well!) Notice that in the first sentence, the English sentence contains a verb preceded by the word “to”. That whole, complete part of any verb (English or French) is called the infinitive. Again, you recognize an infinitive in English because it is a verb with the word “to” in front of it! Obviously, through common sense and observation of the second sentence, every sentence does not have to have an infinitive! Let’s look at the next slide!

“To sing” is an infinitive, but in a sentence, I sing. An example in English: “To sing” is an infinitive, but in a sentence, I sing. Un exemple en français: < Chanter > est un infinitif, mais dans une phrase, Je chante.

Je chante bien! ( I sing well!) See how the infinitive was broken apart (blown up, conjugated) in both English and French so that you can speak correctly? How silly it would be to say in English: “I to sing well.” It would be just as silly to say en français: < Je chanter bien. > Today we are going to learn how to blow up French infinitives to find the verb that lives within them. This blowing up is called “conjugating” an infinitive, and its name is a “conjugation”. We conjugate infinitives in French and in English so that we can make good sentences, questions, and even imperatives!

Before we start conjugating infinitives though, p.2 Before we start conjugating infinitives though, let’s review the parts of a sentence and how they are made up. You already know the French parts of a sentence because you speak English!

J’ aime le tennis. Tu sais déjà les parties d’une phrase! 1) Le sujet (day jah) (You know already the parts of a sentence!) Les 3 parties d’une phrase sont: (The 3 parts of a sentence are: 1) Le sujet 2) Le verbe 3) Le reste! a)Les noms (nouns) b)Les infinitifs (infinitives) c) Les adjectifs (adjectives) d)Les adverbes (adverbs) e)Les prépositions f) Etc! a) Les personnes (people) b) Les lieux (places) (lay lee yurh) c) Les choses (things) (lay shoze) Les mots d’action (action words) 6) Exemple: J’ aime le tennis.

to conjugate (to blow up) infinitives to turn them into Before we learn how to conjugate (to blow up) infinitives to turn them into verbs though, we need to look at the first part of any sentence, the subject! As you know, the subject can be either a noun or a pronoun and is the STAR of the sentence. Nouns are names of people, places, or things, and pronouns are their substitutes! This is the same in English and French. There is only one major difference though with French and English pronouns. There are 9 subject pronouns in French while there are only 8 in English! We also know that nouns and their pronouns can be singular or plural!

Quelques noms anglais: Pensez! Some examples! Quelques noms anglais: (kell kuh nõh ) Marietta Dickerson Allison A girl Kevin A boy A book A car The nouns in capital letters are called proper nouns in English.

Au singulier! Pensez! Quelques noms en français: Donc, Ou . . . (kell kuh nõh ) Un garçon Une fille Un livre Une voiture Au singulier! (oh sE gew lee A) Donc, 11) Ou . . .
