1. Le Conditionnel
« Would »

2. Objectif:
SWBAT: Use the conditionnel mood to discuss having car trouble.

3. Before we move into the next tense, we need to review.
Tenses we know:
Present
Passé Composé
Imparfait

4. The Present: For er verbs, For ir verbs For re verbs e is s es is s
e it nothing
ons issons ons
ez issez ez
ent issent ent

5. The Present:
Verbs you do to yourself take the same endings, they just have a « se » in front of them. We know that se changes:
Je me
Tu te
il se
nous nous
vous vous
ils se

6. The Passé Composé
This tense was what happened at one point in the past.
It involves two words:
etre/ avoir + P.P.
Some verbs take être/ some take avoir. Remember our list?
The second part, the P.P., changes the verb you’re using
for er -é
for ir -i
for re- u

7. Examples
J’ai regardé
Tu es allé
Il a frappé

8. The Imparfait This was what was going on over a long period of time.
This tense involves taking the « nous » form of the verb, chopping off the -ons and adding:
ais ions
ais iez
ait aient

9. Examples:
Je finissais
Tu aimais
Il regardait

10. Now that we have reviewed.
The conditionnel is the new tense we are learning.
It means « would. »

11. How would you say « would »
1. find your stem
2. Add on the endings from the imperfect

12. 1. Find your stem
We find the stem by taking a verb and crossing out everything after the last R.
trouver - stays trouver
répondre - becomes repiner
finir - becomes finir

13. 2. Add on the imperfect endings. What were they?
Je ais
Tu ais
Il ait
Nous ions
Vous iez
Ils aient

14. Example: I would love We know love is aimer Je 1. Go to the last R
2. Add on imperfect ending
je ais
So, it would become:
Je aimerais

15. One last one We would look at Nous/ regarder 1. go to the last R
2. add in the imperfect ending
nous regarderions

16. Irregulars
These do not follow a pattern

17. For the next few
We're looking at verbs that have different stems than the last r. Add the same endings that we have learned after them.
