Everything you need to know
about tense formation
One of the biggest advantage
with Mappeverbe's learning tools is that you learn how to learn. Indeed,
with this mind map, you will learn how all tenses are formed. And there is a
logic in it. Thus you will learn how to form at least four tenses out of one
tense which is the Indicatif présent.
In the end, you will notice that
endings are not many and exceptions mostly relate to the truly irregular
verbs être (to be) , aller (to go), avoir (to have), faire (to do or
make).
A better understanding of what
a verb is
There are two key elements in a
verb form: the stem (radical in French) and the ending (terminaison
in French).
Both elements form a single word
which is called the conjugated form of verb.
Conjugating a verb means giving
it all the forms it may take according to tenses and subject pronouns. Verbs
use different stems and types of endings according to tenses.
Easier pronunciation with the
subject pronoun new order
All Mappeverbe's verb learning
tools use the following order of subject pronouns:
je, tu, il/ elle/on,
ils/elles,
nous, vous.
Reminder:
The stem is the initial part of a
verb form: in the form he wins, win is the stem. It indicates its meaning.
The stem is also called the root.
The ending is the final part of a
verb form: in the form he wins, s is the ending.
Here are a dozen of French verbs whose
form is split into stem and ending:
