Title: Passé composé (1)- ER-Verbs


1
THE PAST TENSE
  • REGULAR VERBS

2
We use this tense, when talking about things that
have happened in the past. It is actually called
the Perfect Tense in French. First lets check
we remember the Present Tense.
3
Present Tense
  • I play football
  • Je joue au foot
  • I eat chips
  • Je mange des frites

4
Changing from Present into Past
  • The big difference between present and past is
    that you need two verbs (doing words) instead of
    one.
  • These two words are
  • 1) the RIGHT part of the verb avoir to
    have
  • 2) a past participle

5
Avoir
  • You should already know how to use this verb. You
    have been using it since the start of the course.
  • Lets have a look at it.

avoir to have
  • jai
  • tu as
  • il/elle a
  • nous avons
  • vous avez
  • vous avez
  • ils/elles ont
  • I have
  • you (fr) have
  • he/she has
  • we have
  • you (plural) have
  • you have (polite)
  • they have

  • J un chat
  • Tu un stylo?

ecouter

  • Remember, this phrase means I have played,
  • I played and I did play!!!
