Fascinating Fact:

"Venir" (future) means “to come” in French. In the future tense, "je viendrai" translates to "I will come."

In KS3 Fast French, students learn how to use important French verbs such as "être" (to be), "avoir" (to have), and "faire" (to do) in the present, past, and future tenses.

Key Terms

Verb: A word that describes an action or state of being, such as "manger" (to eat) or "être" (to be).
Present Tense: The verb form used to describe actions happening now, e.g., "je mange" (I eat).
Future Tense: The verb form used to describe actions that will happen, e.g., "je parlerai" (I will speak).

Frequently Asked Questions (Click to see answers)

How do you conjugate French verbs in the present tense?

To conjugate regular French verbs in the present tense, remove the infinitive ending (-er, -ir, -re) and add the appropriate endings, such as "-e" for "je" (I) or "-ons" for "nous" (we).

What is the difference between regular and irregular verbs in French?

Regular verbs follow a predictable conjugation pattern, while irregular verbs, like "être" (to be) and "avoir" (to have), have unique conjugation forms.

How do you use French verbs in the future tense?

To conjugate verbs in the future tense, add future tense endings to the infinitive form, e.g., "je parlerai" (I will speak), "tu finiras" (you will finish).
