What is Verb Conjugation?For one thing, conjugating a verb is simply putting a verb in an orderly arrangement. We will use a chart. To create this chart we will consider person and tense. Does this sound confusing? Does it sound complicated? We’ll take it step by step. Stay with us!

Simple tenses show the period of time in which a verb takes place: ___________ , __________, __________. We will, for now, make our chart, or verb conjugation in the present tense. We are saying things are taking place __________ or regularly. OK, that takes care of tense.Let’s consider person. When conjugating for person, the verb changes, depending on whether we are talking about the __________, __________, __________ person. Looking at an example should make this clearer. First we consider the full infinitive or what I call the Papa Verb. Basically Papa tells us what the verb is. Then we take a look at Papa’s family and consider what in grammatical terms is called the person.

past, present, future.

What happens when the sentence does not start with a pronoun?

Sentences can start with a name of a person or a noun. There might be two or more names and one or more objects. Which verb is appropriate for these subjects?

Here’s what to do. Imagine which subject pronoun would replace the person or persons mentioned or the noun. Use the verb that would go with that pronoun. Do this step in your head. Do not actually say the pronoun or write it. I have put that pronoun in parentheses, just to show what the pronoun would be, but it would not normally appear in the sentence.

Paul (il) est à la maison.

Ma cousine (elle) est à Nice.

Le jus de pamplemousse (il) est là-bas.

Marie et Antoinette (elles) sont au cinéma.

Denis et Joseph (ils) sont au café.

Olivier et Claudette (ils) sont au restaurant.

Mon frère et mon cousin (ils) sont en France.

La pizza et la limonade (elles) sont ici.

La glace et le croissant (ils) sont à la maison.

Ma cousine = elleDenis et Joseph = ils
