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
jeme fourre
tute fourres
il/ellese fourre
nousnous fourrons
vousvous fourrez
ils/ellesse fourrent

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
jeme fourrai
tute fourras
il/ellese fourra
nousnous fourrâmes
vousvous fourrâtes
ils/ellesse fourrèrent

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
jeme fourrais
tute fourrais
il/ellese fourrait
nousnous fourrions
vousvous fourriez
ils/ellesse fourraient

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
jeme fourrerais
tute fourrerais
il/ellese fourrerait
nousnous fourrerions
vousvous fourreriez
ils/ellesse fourreraient

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
jeme fourrerai
tute fourreras
il/ellese fourrera
nousnous fourrerons
vousvous fourrerez
ils/ellesse fourreront

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
jeme fourre
tute fourres
il/ellese fourre
nousnous fourrions
vousvous fourriez
ils/ellesse fourrent

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
jeme fourrasse
tute fourrasses
il/ellese fourrât
nousnous fourrassions
vousvous fourrassiez
ils/ellesse fourrassent
