What does « conjugate » mean? 4 ESSENTIAL TERMS • 1. Subject – The person or thing doing the action (je, vous) • 2. Infinitive – The verb by itself (danser, parler, inviter) – What others can you name? • 3. Stem – The verb without the ER (dans,parl,invit) • 4. Ending – The combination of letters that we put in place of the « ER » that we dropped earlier. Each Subject Pronoun has it’s own ending to be used.

Exception #1: Le verbe Aller • The verb “ALLER” meaning TO GO is not conjugated the same way as other ER verbs. • It is a very important verb that we use often and we will be going over the conjugation later this week. Exception #2: GER • Verbs that end in GER such as; MANGER (to eat), NAGER (to swim) have a slight variation when conjugating with NOUS. • Instead of taking away the ER and adding ONS. You need to add EONS. • For example: – Nous mangeons (we eat) – Nous nageons (we swim) Exception #3: CER • Verbs that end in CER such as; COMMENCER (to start), LANCER (to throw) also have a slight variation when conjugating with NOUS. • With NOUS you have to add an accent called a cedilla to the C. • For example: – Nous commençons (we start) – Nous lançons (we throw) Application de notre connaissance. • On a document you are going to write 5 sentences using er verbs. – The title will be LES VERBS ER – You will need to include 5 different subjects or subject pronouns. – You will need to use 5 different ER verbs. Example • 1. Tu manges une pomme. • 2. Marc joue le guitar. • 3. Christine et Julie chantent.
