Cheat Sheet
- Master the three verb groups (-er, -ir, -re) - These groups follow clear patterns so once you learn one, you unlock dozens more! Regular - er verbs like "parler" are the easiest: je parle, tu parles, il/elle parle, nous parlons, vous parlez, ils/elles parlent. Soon you'll spot patterns everywhere in French!

- Understand stem-changing verbs (-ayer, -oyer, -uyer) - Some verbs play tricks by changing their "y" to an "i" in certain forms. For instance, nettoyer becomes je nettoie, tu nettoies, ils nettoient, but nous nettoyons and vous nettoyez stay loyal to the "y." Recognizing this pattern makes conjugation less spooky!

- Recognize -cer and -ger verbs - To keep pronunciation smooth, -cer verbs switch "c" to "ç" before "a" or "o" (nous commençons), and -ger verbs add an "e" after "g" (nous mangeons). These tiny tweaks preserve the soft sounds and save you from awkward mispronunciations! Dive into Langster details
- Learn present tense endings for regular -ir verbs - After dropping "-ir," you attach -is, -is, -it, -issons, -issez, -issent. So finir becomes je finis, tu finis, il/elle finit, nous finissons, vous finissez, ils/elles finissent. With this formula, you can finish any - ir verb in style! Check Dummies.com examples
- Identify irregular verbs - Verbs like aller (to go), avoir (to have), and être (to be) march to their own beat. They don't fit neat patterns, so flashcards and frequent practice help these rebels stick in your memory. Soon you'll handle them like a pro! Memorize with ThoughtCo
- Apply gender and number agreement - In French, adjectives and past participles must match the noun's gender and number. Picture "une maison blanche" vs. "des maisons blanches" - one "e" and one "s" change everything! Mastering agreement boosts your grammar confidence. See Reverso rules
- Practice vocabulary in context - Don't just list words - use them! Chat with buddies, write mini-stories, or read short articles. Contextual practice reveals subtle meanings and helps new words stick faster than rote memorization. Get tips on Leaf Languages
- Familiarize yourself with common French verbs - High-frequency verbs like faire (to do), dire (to say), and voir (to see) are the backbone of everyday conversation. The more you know these staples, the more you can express yourself in countless situations! Explore Rosetta Stone's guide
- Understand auxiliary verbs in compound tenses - Avoir and être team up to form tenses like passé composé. You get j'ai mangé (I ate) with avoir, and je suis allé(e) (I went) with être. Spotting which auxiliary to use is key to sounding fluent! Review on Reverso
