To form the imparfait, drop the -ons ending from the nous form of the present tense and replace it with these endings.
Verbs whose infinitives end in -ger add an e before all endings of the imparfait except in the nous and vous forms. Verbs whose infinitives end in -cer change c to ç before all endings except in the nous and vous forms.
Note that the nous and vous forms of infinitives ending in -ier contain a double i in the imparfait.
The imparfait is used for description, often with the verb être, which is irregular in this tense.
