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
jem'évapore
tut'évapores
il/elles'évapore
nousnous évaporons
vousvous évaporez
ils/elless'évaporent

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
jem'évaporai
tut'évaporas
il/elles'évapora
nousnous évaporâmes
vousvous évaporâtes
ils/elless'évaporèrent

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
jem'évaporais
tut'évaporais
il/elles'évaporait
nousnous évaporions
vousvous évaporiez
ils/elless'évaporaient

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
jem'évaporerais
tut'évaporerais
il/elles'évaporerait
nousnous évaporerions
vousvous évaporeriez
ils/elless'évaporeraient

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
jem'évaporerai
tut'évaporeras
il/elles'évaporera
nousnous évaporerons
vousvous évaporerez
ils/elless'évaporeront

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
jem'évapore
tut'évapores
il/elles'évapore
nousnous évaporions
vousvous évaporiez
ils/elless'évaporent

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
jem'évaporasse
tut'évaporasses
il/elles'évaporât
nousnous évaporassions
vousvous évaporassiez
