Lesson outcome

I can use verbs like 'choisir' in the 'je' and 'il, elle' forms to say what I and others do at school.

Show transcript
The SSC [y] sounds different to the English [y] and is pronounced as in ‘physique’ and 'style'. Verbs like 'choisir' ('to choose, choosing') form another type of -IR verb. These include 'réussir' and 'définir'. To say 'I' with a verb like 'choisir', remove the -IR from the infinitive and add -is, e.g. 'je choisis'. To say 'she, he', remove the -IR and add -it, e.g. 'il, elle choisit'. These two verb forms sound the same because the -s and -t are silent final consonants (SFCs).
