Conjunction
A conjunction is a word used to link or 'conjoin' words or phrases into a coherent whole. There are two classes of conjunctions: coordinate and subordinate.
coordinating conjunctions
A coordinating conjunction 'coordinates' two equivalent elements in a sentence, that is, words belonging to the same grammatical category (nouns + nouns, verbs + verbs, independent clause + independent clause, etc.). The most commonly used coordinating conjunctions in French are:
coordinating conjunctions
A coordinating conjunction 'coordinates' two equivalent elements in a sentence, that is, words belonging to the same grammatical category (nouns + nouns, verbs + verbs, independent clause + independent clause, etc.). The most commonly used coordinating conjunctions in French are:
| mais | but |
| ou | or |
| et | and |
| donc | so, thus |
| or | so, now |
| ni ... ni | neither ... nor |
| car | for |
| puis | then |
| Edouard n'aime ni le barbecue ni les hamburgers. | Edouard likes neither barbecue nor hamburgers. |
| Tex fume des cigarettes et boit du vin rouge. | Tex smokes cigarettes and drinks red wine. |
| subordinating conjunctions A subordinating conjunction links an independent clause to a dependent clause. In other words, a subordinating conjunction joins two unequivalent clauses (independent and dependent). An independent clause is any clause that can stand alone to form a grammatical sentence. A dependent clause, on the other hand, cannot stand alone and thus 'depends' on the main clause in order to form a complete thought. The most commonly used subordinate conjunctions: |
| que | that |
| pendant que | as, while |
| quand | when |
| lorsque | when |
| depuis que | since (indicating time) |
| tandis que | while, whereas |
| puisque | since |
| parce que | because |
| Il est évident que Tex fume trop. (dependent) . ... .(independent) | It is obvious that Tex smokes too much. |

Past Tense
Later on, you will realize that past tense in french comprises of 2 parts (auxiliary+past participle).Most verbs use "Avoir" as their auxiliary when expressing past tense except for french movement verbs like : aller,venir,mourir,revenir,devenir e.tc and pronominal verbs e.g se baigner,se laver,se coucher which use etre as their auxiliary
Aller in past tense:
je suis alle(e) i went
tu es alle(e) you went
il est alle he went
elle est allee she went
Nous sommes alles(allees) we went
Vous etes alles(allees) you went
ils sont alles they went
