Essential French Tenses

Typical scenario of a language student:

We decide to learn a foreign language (in this case French), we become super eager and dedicate our time to learning the basic words like greetings and colors. We listen to how they are pronounced and after some time, our language level improves and we become more dedicated...that is until we reach the terrifying part of language learning: the GRAMMAR!!

Every language has a certain structure when forming a sentence and of course, conjugating verbs to a specific tense. The French language is no different.

In English, there are 12 major tenses, but each one falls under one of three main tenses - Past, Present or Future. In French however, there are more than 20 tenses which you could use.

Don't worry thought, this course Essential French Tenses will guide you through the 5 most used tenses in French.

We will go through some of the basic essentials in French grammar:

• Basic sentence structure - How to form French sentences.

• Subject pronouns and their usages.

• Categories of French verbs and how to conjugate them.

• Do some sample phrases to complete our understanding of French tenses.

Yes, learning a new language requires dedication and passion! BUT, it shouldn't be complicated - that is when most people give up.

Remember!

La simplicité fait la beauté (simplicity is beauty)
