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

  2. Subject PronounsDoesn’t matter if the verb is regular or irregular:The pronouns are always in the same order. • I • You • He, she, one • We • You • Theymasculine & feminine • Je • Tu • Il, elle,on • Nous • Vous • Ils,elles

  3. 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.

  4. 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).

  5. The pattern for verbs of the ER family • Put the pronouns in order. • Find the stem of the verb by taking off the family name: ER • Add your verb endings.

  8. Irregular ER verbs • Irregular Stems ►French stem-changing verbs are conjugated with the same endings as normal but have two different stems. Stem-changing verbs are sometimes called boot verbs. ►We will study the verbs acheter & préférer : Change of accent in the stem ►And the verbs manger & commencer: Add an “e” or a “ç” ►We will also meet Aller: the black sheep of the ER family!

  10. Why are they called boot verbs? The verb acheter is a so-called boot verb because all the verbs with the same stems form the shape of a boot. The verb: acheter Another way of saying it : Nous and Vouslook like their parents: acheter
