  4. manger = to eat je mangerai = I will eat tu mangeras =you will eat il mangera =he will eat elle mangera =she will eat

  5. nous mangerons = we will eat vous mangerez = you will eat ils mangeront = they will eat elles mangeront = they will eat

  6. finir = to finish Write out the future tense of the verb finir. Follow the same pattern as you did for manger.

  7. Regular re verbs To form the future tense of re verbs we do exactly the same as for er and ir verbs except that we take the e off the end of the infinitive first. e.g. je vendr ai e
