Lesson details

Lesson outcome

I can use the perfect tense to talk about medical situations in France.

Show transcript
'S' at the beginning of a word is soft 's' (sont) but a single 's' between vowels is a hard 's' ('vous êtes'). All French people have a 'Carte Vitale' necessary to use French health services. Call the SAMU in a medical emergency. The present tense has one conjugated verb; the perfect tense has two verbs, a part of avoir/être + a past participle. Use a conjugated form of 'avoir' with most verbs but use 'être' with movement verbs, and past participles must agree.
