Lesson details

Lesson outcome

I can use verbs like 'entendre' and 'venir' in the present and perfect tenses in the context of French colonisation, including in information questions.

Show transcript
[un/um] is pronounced as in 'un' (a). [un/um] becomes non-nasal before a vowel e.g. 'unité'. Verbs like 'entendre' are similar in the present/perfect tenses but verbs like 'venir' are very different. Listen for an auxiliary verb to identify the tense, only the perfect tense has an auxiliary verb. Add question words to the start of a sentence to ask an information question. There is no subject-verb inversion when 'qui' is the first word of clause.
