  1. The subjunctive of regular & irregular verbs Français 2 Chapitre 8 Grammaire 1

  2. Le subjonctif des verbes réguliers • The verb tenses you have learned so far, such as the present tense and the passé composé, belong to the indicative mood. There is another mood called the subjunctive mood. In certain situations, you must use the subjunctive. • Use the subjunctive with expressions of necessity, such as il faut que (it’s necessary that) and il est important que (it’s important that). The verb that follows these expressions will be in the subjunctive mood.

  3. Le subjonctif des verbes réguliers • To form the subjunctive of regular verbs, drop the –ent of the present indicative ils form of the verb and add the following endings:

  4. Le subjonctif des verbes réguliers • Il faut qu’il parle au médecin. • It’s necessary that he talk to the doctor. • Il est important qu’elle finisse ses médicaments. • It’s important that she finish her meds. • Notice the difference in translation?

  5. Le subjonctif des verbes irréguliers • Some verbs, like the ones you’ll see on the next page, have two stems to which you add the subjunctive endings. The stem for nous and vous comes from the nous form of the present indicative. The other stem comes from the ils form.

  9. More subjunctive expressions • You’ve used the subjunctive after expressions of necessity (il faut que, il est important que). Another such expression is il est nécessaire que (it’snecessary that). • You also use the subjunctive to express certain requests and with certain emotions. • Je (ne)veux (pas) que… I (don’t) wish that… • Je suis triste que… I am sad that… • Je suis content(e) que… I am glad that… • Il est bon que… It’s good that…
