GCSE French Conjugation Past Tense Playlist | Lesson 2 of 9 | Imperfect (imparfait)

Описание: The French Imperfect is one of the most important Past tense you need to know, recognise and use for your GCSE. I have divided this topic over 2 lessons. This is your first lesson explaining when and how to use it. The second lesson will be on important verbs. 

The imperfect tense is used to refer to actions in the past that occurred repeatedly, such as I used to walk every day. The imperfect tense is also used to refer to actions in the past that occurred over an extended period of time.

This is video lesson 2 of 9. Watch the corresponding lessons, in the correct order, via the full playlist here:    • Past Tense French Conjugation For GCSE & B...  

To form the imperfect, drop the -ons ending from the present tense nous form of the verb and add these endings: -ais, -ais, -ait, -ions, -iez, -aient. pouvoir → nous pouvons → je pouvais, tu pouvais, etc. We can / We are able to (present) → I could / I was able to, You could / You were able to (Imperfect).
