La famille ER conjugaison

• Conjugating the ER family
• Learning patterns is a key to mastering the
  conjugating of French verbs.

Regular or irregular?

• First, determine if the verb is irregular
• 1) Know which are the irregulars.
• 2) They are usually common verbs.
• 3) They are unique (no pattern) you have to
  study each one.
• The good news about REGULAR verbs
• They only have one of three endings
• They follow a pattern.

5
Regular verbs the pattern explained

• The infinitive of most verbs in French end in the
  letters ER. This is the family we are studying in
  this presentation.
• Lesser numbers end in the letters IR and RE.
• Most follow a regular pattern for each ending
  group above.
• Exceptions to this pattern are called irregular
  verbs.
• So if you learn the regular patterns you will
  know the patterns for most verbs.
• To conjugate each verb in the present tense, the
  last two letters (ER, IR, RE) are dropped and a
  different ending is added for each pronoun (I,
  you, he, she, it, we, you all, they).

Tous les verbes de la famille - er

• Most verbs that end in er are part of the same
  family, meaning that they follow the same
  pattern.
• This means that no matter what, even if you dont
  know what a verb means, you can still conjugate
  it by following some simple rules.
• An UNCONJUGATED verb, meaning it still has its
  ending, is called an infinitive. For example,
  parler to speak, not I speak, we speak,
  etc.
