The 5 French Tenses You Must Master

 1. The Present Tense: The Essential Foundation

The present tense is the fundamental tense of the French language. But knowing regular conjugations isn’t enough. Have you mastered irregular verbs like être, avoir, aller, faire?

Test yourself with our challenge to see if you conjugate correctly in the present tense.

 2. The Simple Future: Express Your Plans

The simple future allows you to express your intentions and projects. But watch out for pitfalls! Some verbs like pouvoir, savoir, avoir have irregular forms that many learners confuse.

Will you be able to conjugate these verbs correctly in the simple future?

3. The Imperfect: Tell Stories About the Past

The imperfect is the tense for narration, descriptions, and past habits. One important detail: the ending -ions in the first and second person plural. Many people forget it!

Discover if you truly master the imperfect by watching our test.

 4. The Past Tense (Passé Composé): The Unavoidable French Tense

The passé composé is the most used tense in spoken French today. But it’s also the most complex: auxiliary être or avoir? Agreement of the past participle? Do these questions trouble you?

Our challenge will allow you to verify your understanding.

5. The Conditional Present: Politeness and Hypotheses

The conditional present is used to express politeness, a hypothesis, or a wish. It’s a less intuitive tense than the others, but essential for communicating naturally in French.

Test yourself to see if you use it correctly.

Common Conjugation Mistakes to Avoid

Mistake 1: Confusing “Vous dites” and “Vous disez”

Many learners say “vous disez” instead of “vous dites”. It’s a very common mistake! Will you avoid it in our challenge?

Mistake 2: Forgetting the Agreement of the Past Participle

With the auxiliary être, the past participle agrees with the subject. Example: “Elle est allée” (feminine) vs “Il est allé” (masculine). Do you master this rule?

Mistake 3: Irregular Verbs in the Simple Future

Verbs like pouvoir (ils pourront, with 2 R’s) or avoir (tu auras) have irregular forms. Do you know them all?

Mistake 4: The Imperfect in the First Person Plural

At “nous” and “vous”, the imperfect adds an -i: “nous parlions”, “vous parliez”. Many people forget this detail!
