Review of the Passé Composé • The Passé Composé is a past tense. • It expresses an action that happened once, in the past. • The Passé Composé is made up of two verbs: • 1. A helping verb (avoir) • 2. The past participle
Verb 1: The Helping Verb (Avoir) • The helping verb is conjugated in the present tense to match the subject. • Review the conjugation of avoir. • J’ai = I have Nous avons= We have • Tu as = You (inf) have Vous avez= You (form) have • Il a = He has Ils ont = They (m) have • Elle a = She has Elles ont = They (f) have • On a = One has
Verb 2: The Past Participle • We will first review the past participle of regular ER verbs. • You form the past participle by taking off the ER ending and adding é to the end of the verb.
Examples 1. Nous avons mangé la glace. We ate ice cream /We did eat ice cream./ We have eaten ice cream. 2. J’ai visité Paris. I visited Paris. / I did visit Paris./ I have visited Paris.
A Closer Look • J’aimangé la pizza. • Ai is the helping verb. It is the je form of the verb avoir. The helping verb should always match the subject. • Mangé is the past participle. To form the past participle you will always remove the ER and add é. The past participle is not conjugated to match the subject.
Tues: Vocabulary Practice Write in English. • .Pourquoi es-tu de mauvaise humeur aujourd’hui? • .J’aime travailler avec Jean-Luc parce qu’il est débrouillard. • .Je ne parle plus à Suzanne parce qu’elle est folle. • .On n’aime pas Paul parce qu’il est désagréable et trop franc. • .Les enfants sont enthousiastes pour Noël. • J’ai travaillé beaucoup mardi.
