Document Summary

Donner ; je vais vous donner le menu. Recipe for the plusque parfait: take the indefinite past, put the auxiliary verb in the imparfait (imperfect tense) Nous avions chant e passive, present: elle est chant e passive, future: elle sera chant e passive, imperfect: elle tait chant e passive, pass compos : elle a t chant e passive, plusque parfait: elle avait t chant e infinitives= use the unconjugated version. Polite imperative- include yourself in the action to be done. So the recipe for the present conditional is: take the future basic form, add the imperfect endings. Tre = sere, je sere, nous serions chant e. Avoir = ore, j"ore, tu ore, nous orions chant e. ** short french adverbs always occur right after the verb, longer adverbs can occur at the beginning of a sentence or at the end: La seine traverse la ville de paris -> same as elle la traverse (for short)
