Être (to be) - Conjugated in the 5 main tenses - Focus on pronunciation

[@TheperfectfrenchwithDylane]

This Thursday I will do a "French Reading Practice" around the verb ÊTRE - DOn't forget to subscribe to not miss it ❤️ Edit : I got a few comments about the passé composé being "have been" and not "was". I only added one for lack of space but don't forget that passé composé doesn't always translate to the past perfect in English. If it was it would be great but unfortunately, it doesn't 😉

Moi, attende..

[@Lemongrass57]

Passé compose is just simple past right?

Bonjour Dylane! The most effective way to remember the verb conjugations is through reading. I strongly suggest that you create more Reading French video series, targeting different verb tenses, regular and irregular verbs. Merci beaucoup!

[@TheperfectfrenchwithDylane]

I will see what I can do :)

[@JamesBond-dq2dz]

Bonjour Dylane! It's interesting that in French therer's only one to be verb être, whereas in Spainish and Portuguese there are two, estar and ser, which always confuse many people when to use which. It's also interesting that the radical in futur simple and conditionnel tenses Ser, is the same as one of the Spanish and Portuguese verb! So in French the to be verb is like the combination of the 2 to be verbs in Spanish and Portuguese! Merci beaucoup

[@TheperfectfrenchwithDylane]

So much easier for you then :D

[@royfigueroa9210]

Wow! That's a lot to digest! If you were to learn the past, present and future tenses, which ones would you start with (top 3)? which ones are the most useful (top 3)? Thanks. Merci Beaucoup!

[@TheperfectfrenchwithDylane]

Present Passé composé and futur :) Add the 2 that are very easy to learn - passé récent and futur proche. If you want to learn conjugation, check out my French conjugation playlist here on my channel. You will learn everything from A to Z :)

wow i always have a difficult time while studing grammer and especially sounds in french cause its really difficult but this lesson was really easy merci 😆

[@TheperfectfrenchwithDylane]

I am glad it helped you ☺️

[@SuperColon2]

Merci Dylane. This lesson cleared up a lot for me. Also, I am making certain that 2 days do not go by without me practicing (French / Ukulele).

[@TheperfectfrenchwithDylane]

That's great Hugh, I am very happy to hear that 👏☺️

[@bobbyfirmanjaya4421]

Bonjour Dylane ! Ton enseignement est facile à comprendre 😊 Merci beaucoup

[@bobbyfirmanjaya4421]

Quand le cours de conjugaison va-t-il commencer ? Is it combined with grammar also (passe compose, imparfait, etc) ?

[@TheperfectfrenchwithDylane]

J'espère autour de la troisième semaine d'avril. Je veux que le livre soit disponible sur Amazon et de là je commence 🙂 Il y aura un peu de grammaire, COD, COI, questions, négations, un peu de prépositions aussi :D Tous les temps seront expliqués (ou du moins tous les temps utiles)

[@bobbyfirmanjaya4421]

@@TheperfectfrenchwithDylane Super ! J'ai hâte de l'avoir ❤ Merci beaucoup

[@stephenknight5215]

I understand the imparfait being I was etc but isn't the passé composé J'ai été equivalent to 'I have been' ?

[@TheperfectfrenchwithDylane]

I usually put both since it depends on the situation, but I was running out of space. Looking back I should probably have only put Have been.

[@bernadetteolave1752]

Dylane, can you recheck please the pdf for this lesson? Merci!

[@TheperfectfrenchwithDylane]

[@TheperfectfrenchwithDylane]

Merci encore une fois 🙂

[@JamesBond-dq2dz]

Coucou Dylane! As we all know, the s at the end of serais is silent, why are the pronunciation of serais (conditionnel) and serai (futur simple) totally different? Merci!

[@TheperfectfrenchwithDylane]

Ais is pronounced è - ai is pronounced é :)

[@kuldippotter2033]

Passe compose There should have been the exact translation of j’ai ètè I have been Is it ??

[@bilqeesshabbir5871]

I beliave Passe compose in French is similar to Past perfect in English. It should be tralslated as ' I have been'. Whereas, Simple past is 'I was'.

[@TheperfectfrenchwithDylane]

Passé composé doesn't actually translate word by word to the past perfect in English. It can be I was AND I have been. Like I said in another comment, I only put one mostly because of space.

[@Aditya-te7oo]

I think passé composé and imparfait is respectively simple past and past continuous in English.

[@devendra1956]

Bonsoir Madame. Does you have modified your earlier video in captions. I feel so.

No I didn't do anything 🧐

Im in “old age”. Some good things happen then ( not many!) im remembering my level of french more easily. They say if you dont use it you loose it so im surprised this is happening. There is no reason for me to speak write or read it. But some movies are in french that interest me. My level of french is beginning intermediate. A person could survive on that level just fine really except for literature, movies or writing articles and long letters. Just have no reason to do such ….but love languages. In europe more people are multilingual than in America. In regards to pronunciation its the last thing i worry over. I hear people speaking fluently English and there are all sorts of different accents. No big thing. It makes too many people shy to try speaking it. My mom read Russian literature but balked at putting a sentence together verbally. This teacher has a fairly strong accent. Does it bother me? Does it make me amused? Am I able to understand? Travelling around you end up able to overcome language barrier in some fun interesting ways. Its fun! Its not MATH! Ugh math. Horrible language

[@twitteslapacex8283]

😅

[@martinl583]

An enjoyable lesson👍. One question: On Forvo, which presents recordings of French speakers, the people recorded add in a liaison between the auxiliary AVOIR and the past participle été. For example, they say: tu as_été, nous_avons_été, vous_avez_été, ils/elles_ont_été. The Reverso conjugation tool also does the last one but not the others. Should you add in these extra links to speak the absolute best French, or is it a practice that is frowned upon? PS. I just noticed this also happens with the Plus-que-parfait. eg j'avais_été. Even ils avaient_été which sounds like (il-zahvay-tay-tay).

[@TheperfectfrenchwithDylane]

Martin they are actually optional but most of the time, people will pronounce them :)

[@martinl583]

@@TheperfectfrenchwithDylane Merci beaucoup pour votre réponse. Did you not pronounce the extra liaisons yourself because it would complicate the lesson; but you would pronounce them in your normal speech.
