This week's vocabulary includes...
un ami
une amie
un copain
une copine
un garçon
une fille
un prof
une prof
Tiens!
Voici
Voilà
Qui-est-ce?

.................................................
French 1C and French I (8th and 9th Graders) are working on regular -er verbs in the present tense. We are taking the infinitive (-er form), dropping the -er ending, and adding the correct ending depending on the subject/pronoun.
je parlE
tu parlES
il/elle parlE
nous parlONS
vous parlEZ
ils/elles parlENT.

* Rememember the pronunciations for the endings of je, tu, il, elle and ils/elles are identical.
** Also remember these forms have 3 meanings (I play, I do play, I am playing...).

Students should be reviewing the meanings of the pronouns, and continue to review the verbs etre and avoir.
