French grammar
French verb endings
Three families, dozens of irregulars—your ear can learn faster than your eyes.
-er verbs (parler, aimer)
The largest group: -e, -es, -e, -ons, -ez, -ent in present. Hear the rhyme across je/tu/il.
- je parle
- tu parles
- nous parlons
- ils parlent
-ir verbs (finir)
Present often shows -is, -is, -it, -issons, -issez, -issent—listen for the extra -iss- in plural.
Irregular heavyweights
être, avoir, aller, faire break patterns but appear constantly—drill them first.
- je suis / j’ai / je vais / je fais
Musical pattern drilling
Each conjugation map in Rhythmica is its own song—endings land on beats so -ons and -ez stop blurring together.
