This book shows the conjugation of 21 regular French verbs: casser se casser appeler s'appeler jeter se jeter renouveler aliéner s'aliéner essayer (with both variations) employer s'employer manger forcer se forcer finir se finir rendre se rendre rompre se rompre These are conjugated in the affirmative, negative, interrogative, and negative-interrogative. Examples: Present (il casse, 'he breaks') Present - Negative (il ne casse pas, 'he does not break') Present - Interrogative (casse-t-il? 'does he break?'), and Present - Negative Interrogative (ne casse-t-il pas? 'does he not break?'). These forms are shown throughout in all of the applicable active and passive structures, and also with examples of the 'pronominal, ' or 'reflexive' verb conjugation: Infinitives, Imperatives, Participles, and Gerundives Present Present Perfect (Compound Past) Imperfect Pluperfect Past Definite (Simple Past) Past Perfect (Past Anterior) Future Future Perfect (Future Anterior) Present Conditional Past Conditional Present Subjunctive Past Subjunctive Imperfect Subjunctive Pluperfect Subjunctive If there is a spelling difference because of the (relatively recent) orthographic reforms, then both the traditional, or 'pre-1990' forms, will be shown along with the new. This book shows the International Phonetic Alphabet transcription for each of the forms, revealing to the reader, for instance, that in the phrase ils cassent, 'they are breaking, ' the '-ent' suffix of the verb isn't part of the pronunciation: *[il kas]. Showing the pronunciation of each form takes the reader over many similar hurdles. There is a chapter designed to give the reader a working knowledge of the IPA, as applicable to French, along with explanations on how to accurately pronounce the French speech sounds that aren't present in English. This work possesses a detailed description of the phenomenon of liaison, and a chapter on the grammar of the French verb, explaining what each tense means, as well as a small bit of explanatory background information on the evolution of Modern French from Gaulish, Vulgar Latin, and Old French. *Note: the correct font for the IPA symbol, shown here as [a], was not available for this description.
