Simple Crier (to Shout) Verb Conjugations in French
Simple Crier (to Shout) Verb Conjugations in French To shout or to scream in French uses the verbà crier. Its an easy one to remember if you remember that you cry out when you scream. Transforming it into the past, present, or future tense requires a verb conjugation and a quick lesson will show you how its done. Conjugating the French Verbà Crier The conjugations of French verbsà are a little complicated. You must, of course, change the ending to match the tense, but theres also a new ending used for each subject pronoun. That means you have more words to commit to memory. The good news is thatà crierà is aà regular -ER verbà and it follows a very common verb conjugation pattern. The infinitive endings you see here are the same youll find in conjugations ofà crà ©erà (to create),à fà ¢cherà (to make angry), and countless other verbs. To study these conjugations, pair the subject pronoun with the proper tense. For instance, I shout is je crie and we will scream is nous crierons Practicing these in various contexts will help with your memorization. Subject Present Future Imperfect je crie crierai criais tu cries crieras criais il crie criera criait nous crions crierons criions vous criez crierez criiez ils crient crieront criaient The Present Participle of Crier Adding -antà to the verb stemà cri-à creates theà present participleà criant. This is a verb, of course, though you may also use it as an adjective, gerund, or noun in some circumstances. The Past Participle and Passà © Composà © Theà passà © composà ©Ã is another form of the past tense. It requires theà past participleà crià ©, which is attached to the subject pronoun and a conjugation ofà avoirà (anà auxiliary, or helping, verb). Putting the passà © composà © together is rather simple: I screamed becomes jai crià © and we shouted is nous avons crià ©. More Simple Crierà Conjugations The subjunctive verb form is used when the action of shouting is questionable, subjective, or uncertain. Similarly, the conditional verb form implies that the action may not happen unless something else happens. Primarily found in literature, you may not use the passà © simple nor the imperfect subjunctive yourself. However, you should be able to recognize them as a form ofà crier. Subject Subjunctive Conditional Pass Simple Imperfect Subjunctive je crie crierais criai criasse tu cries crierais crias criasses il crie crierait cria crit nous criions crierions crimes criassions vous criiez crieriez crites criassiez ils crient crieraient crirent criassent A very useful form ofà crierà is the imperative verb form. This is used for exclamations and when using it, you can skip the subject pronoun: use crie rather than tu crie. Imperative (tu) crie (nous) crions (vous) criez
