to take drugs

Frequency#328Regular

Indicative

Present (Présent) Regular

Use the présent for habits, what is true now, and what is about to happen soon. A single set of endings covers what English often splits into “I speak” and “I am speaking”.

Elle parle arabe et français.

PronounFrench
jedrogue
tudrogues
il/elledrogue
nousdroguons
vousdroguez
ils/ellesdroguent

Simple past (Passé simple) Regular

The passé simple narrates completed past events in a literary or very formal style. In everyday conversation people use the passé composé instead, so you mostly meet this form in books and journalism.

Ils virent le roi s'approcher.

PronounFrench
jedroguai
tudroguas
il/elledrogua
nousdroguâmes
vousdroguâtes
ils/ellesdroguèrent

Imperfect (Imparfait) Regular

The imparfait describes ongoing or repeated past actions and sets the background — how things were, what used to happen, weather, feelings. The passé composé, by contrast, marks single completed events.

Quand j'étais petit, j'allais souvent à la piscine.

PronounFrench
jedroguais
tudroguais
il/elledroguait
nousdroguions
vousdroguiez
ils/ellesdroguaient

Conditional (Conditionnel) Regular

The conditionnel is for polite questions and requests, “would”-type hypotheticals, and what someone said would happen. It is also the usual consequent clause in si + imparfait → conditionnel patterns.

Pourriez-vous répéter, s'il vous plaît ?

PronounFrench
jedroguerais
tudroguerais
il/elledroguerait
nousdroguerions
vousdrogueriez
ils/ellesdrogueraient

Future (Futur) Regular

The futur is for future plans and objective predictions. In speech, aller + infinitive is often clearer for the immediate future, while the simple future is common for facts further ahead or in writing.

Demain, nous dînerons chez eux.

PronounFrench
jedroguerai
tudrogueras
il/elledroguera
nousdroguerons
vousdroguerez
ils/ellesdrogueront

Present perfect (Passé composé) Regular

The passé composé is the main spoken past for completed, bounded actions (often with a time adverb). Use avoir with most verbs; être is required for a fixed group of motion/inchange and all pronominal verbs, with participle agreement when necessary.

Elle est venue tôt, puis elle a téléphoné.

PronounFrench
jej'ai drogué
tutu as drogué
il/elleil/elle a drogué
nousnous avons drogué
vousvous avez drogué
ils/ellesils/elles ont drogué

Pluperfect (Plus-que-parfait) Regular

The plus-que-parfait is the “earlier past”: one action was already over before another past moment. It answers “had already” when a story is anchored in a past time.

Déjà, il avait fini quand je suis arrivé.

PronounFrench
jej'avais drogué
tutu avais drogué
il/elleil/elle avait drogué
nousnous avions drogué
vousvous aviez drogué
ils/ellesils/elles avaient drogué

Conditional perfect (Conditionnel passé) Regular

The conditionnel passé states what would have been true, plans that failed, and unreal past if-clauses (often with si + plus-que-parfait in the apodose).

J'aurais dit oui, mais c'était impossible.

PronounFrench
jej'aurais drogué
tutu aurais drogué
il/elleil/elle aurait drogué
nousnous aurions drogué
vousvous auriez drogué
ils/ellesils/elles auraient drogué

Future perfect (Futur antérieur) Regular

The futur antérieur marks an action that will be finished before a later future moment (by then I will have…). It can also suggest a conjecture about a recent past fact in formal or literary use.

D'ici samedi, j'aurai lu le rapport.

PronounFrench
jej'aurai drogué
tutu auras drogué
il/elleil/elle aura drogué
nousnous aurons drogué
vousvous aurez drogué
ils/ellesils/elles auront drogué

Subjunctive

Present subjunctive (Subjonctif présent) Regular

The present subjunctive appears in subordinate clauses after desire, doubt, fear, need, and many impersonals, usually when the subject of the subordinate is different. Learn common triggers: il faut que, je veux que, je doute que…

Il faut qu'il parte avant midi.

PronounFrench
jedrogue
tudrogues
il/elledrogue
nousdroguions
vousdroguiez
ils/ellesdroguent

Imperfect subjunctive (Subjonctif imparfait) Regular

The imparfait du subjonctif is a literary and formal past subjunctive. In modern speech, the present subjunctive usually replaces it for the same meaning.

Bien qu'il fût fatigué, il continua.

PronounFrench
jedroguasse
tudroguasses
il/elledroguât
nousdroguassions
vousdroguassiez
ils/ellesdroguassent

Other forms

Imperative (Impératif) Regular

The imperative is for direct orders and advice to tu, nous, and vous. For many -er verbs, the tu form drops the final -s of the present (parle!); negatives use the subjunctive-like forms in practice.

Fermons la porte, s'il vous plaît !

PronounFrench
tudrogue
nousdroguons
vousdroguez
