7. Conjugaison: présent de l'indicatif, groupe 3

To finish our overview of the indicatif présent, here are the handouts I gave in class about 3rd group verbs:


Exercise: A few irregular verbs in present tense (source: ISLcollective, créé par Paugaliza)


As I explained in class, the 3rd group basically includes the verbs that don't belong in the first two groups. They all present some form of irregularity, so there is no other possibility than memorizing them! Sorry...

If you want to learn more, you might find the following pages from the Podcast Français Facile useful:

Verbes de base

Venir, tenir...

Verbes en -uire

Verbes en -dre

Verbes en -eindre

I also recommend using an online conjugation guide, such as Toute la Conjugaison. Just enter the infinitive form of any verb in the search field and you'll see all its tenses and modes. Very useful, including for me ! 😉
