All the tenses have a specific usage. They are conventionally divided into three conjugations with the following groupings:
- 1st group: verbs ending in -er (except aller).
- 2nd group: verbs ending in -ir, with the gerund ending in -issant.
- 3rd group:
- 1st section: verbs ending in -ir, with the gerund ending in -ant.
- 2nd section: verbs ending in -oir.
- 3rd section: verbs ending in -re.
- aller
- The first two groups follow a regular conjugation, whereas the third group follows an irregular one. The third group is considered a closed-class conjugation form, meaning that most new verbs introduced to the French language are of the first group (téléviser, atomiser, radiographier), with the remaining ones being of the second group. - THIS BOOK IS BACKED-UP WITH EXERCISES.
