Using the pronoun ‘on’ Learning to use all parts of –er verbs

2 Je m’amuse chez moi

3 Regular –er verbs The present tense is used to talk about what is happening now or, in general terms, what happens every day. Example: Je regarde la télé. I watch TV. J’ai un frère. I have one brother. Je suis écossais. I am Scottish. The first example can be translated not just as “I watch TV”, but also as “I’m watching TV”. In English we have different forms of the present tense but French is less complicated - there is just one!

4 Regular –er verbs You have already learnt some French verbs in the present tense. Can you remember which ones? The verbs which you have learnt so far (like avoir and être) are probably irregular. This means that they don’t follow a set pattern and their endings have to be learnt very carefully. Luckily, not all verbs are like this. Some verbs, called regular verbs, follow a set pattern. This means that if you learn the endings for one verb, you will be able to use the same endings on all the other verbs that belong to the same group. The biggest group of regular verbs are those whose infinitive ends in – er. We call these regular –er verbs!

5 Regular –er verbs Here is the whole of the verb regarder. It means ‘to watch’ in English, and it is an example of a regular – er verb. Je Tu Il / Elle Nous Vous Ils / Elles regarde I watch, I am watching regardes You watch, you are watching regarde He / she watches, he / she is watching regardons We watch, we are watching regardez You watch, you are watching regardent They watch, they are watching

6 Regular –er verbs So forming a regular –er verb is easy. First you take the –er ending off the infinitive, then you add on the correct ending for je, tu, il etc. Can you work out the different parts of the verb jouer (to play)? Je Tu Il / Elle Nous Vous Ils / Elles joue I play, I am playing joues You play, you are playing joue He / she plays, he / she is playing jouons We play, we are playing jouez You play, you are playing jouent They play, they are playing
