notifier — French conjugation
to notify
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.
| Pronoun | French | English |
|---|---|---|
| je | notifie | I notify |
| tu | notifies | you notify |
| il/elle | notifie | he/she/it notifies |
| nous | notifions | we notify |
| vous | notifiez | you (pl.) notify |
| ils/elles | notifient | they notify |
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.
| Pronoun | French | English |
|---|---|---|
| je | notifiai | I notified |
| tu | notifias | you notified |
| il/elle | notifia | he/she/it notified |
| nous | notifiâmes | we notified |
| vous | notifiâtes | you (pl.) notified |
| ils/elles | notifièrent | they notified |
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.
| Pronoun | French |
|---|---|
| je | notifiais |
| tu | notifiais |
| il/elle | notifiait |
| nous | notifiions |
| vous | notifiiez |
| ils/elles | notifiaient |
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 ?
| Pronoun | French | English |
|---|---|---|
| je | notifierais | I would notify |
| tu | notifierais | you would notify |
| il/elle | notifierait | he/she/it would notify |
| nous | notifierions | we would notify |
| vous | notifieriez | you (pl.) would notify |
| ils/elles | notifieraient | they would notify |
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.
| Pronoun | French | English |
|---|---|---|
| je | notifierai | I will notify |
| tu | notifieras | you will notify |
| il/elle | notifiera | he/she/it will notify |
| nous | notifierons | we will notify |
| vous | notifierez | you (pl.) will notify |
| ils/elles | notifieront | they will notify |
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.
| Pronoun | French | English |
|---|---|---|
| je | j'ai notifié | I have notified |
| tu | tu as notifié | you have notified |
| il/elle | il/elle a notifié | he/she/it has notified |
| nous | nous avons notifié | we have notified |
| vous | vous avez notifié | you (pl.) have notified |
| ils/elles | ils/elles ont notifié | they have notified |
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.
| Pronoun | French | English |
|---|---|---|
| je | j'avais notifié | I had notified |
| tu | tu avais notifié | you had notified |
| il/elle | il/elle avait notifié | he/she/it had notified |
| nous | nous avions notifié | we had notified |
| vous | vous aviez notifié | you (pl.) had notified |
| ils/elles | ils/elles avaient notifié | they had notified |
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.
| Pronoun | French |
|---|---|
| je | j'aurais notifié |
| tu | tu aurais notifié |
| il/elle | il/elle aurait notifié |
| nous | nous aurions notifié |
| vous | vous auriez notifié |
| ils/elles | ils/elles auraient notifié |
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.
| Pronoun | French | English |
|---|---|---|
| je | j'aurai notifié | I will have notified |
| tu | tu auras notifié | you will have notified |
| il/elle | il/elle aura notifié | he/she/it will have notified |
| nous | nous aurons notifié | we will have notified |
| vous | vous aurez notifié | you (pl.) will have notified |
| ils/elles | ils/elles auront notifié | they will have notified |
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.
| Pronoun | French |
|---|---|
| je | notifie |
| tu | notifies |
| il/elle | notifie |
| nous | notifiions |
| vous | notifiiez |
| ils/elles | notifient |
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.
| Pronoun | French |
|---|---|
| je | notifiasse |
| tu | notifiasses |
| il/elle | notifiât |
| nous | notifiassions |
| vous | notifiassiez |
| ils/elles | notifiassent |
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 !
| Pronoun | French |
|---|---|
| tu | notifie |
| nous | notifions |
| vous | notifiez |
