Être & Avoir (French Essentials Lesson 10) Video Lecture | Learn French Language: Step by Step Tutorial for Beginners

Bonjour Bienvenue
learn French with Alex on this is the
last lesson of my series they told
French sensual vol.1 I came I hope you
enjoyed it and learned a lot I would
like to finish with a grammatical point
this time which is a crucial point in
French and will help you a lot in your
language learning and speaking now today
folks I would like to teach you of how
to conjugate the verbs to be and to have
in the present tense okay you may want
to tell me but what is conjugated and
why is it so important and why am i
choosing to be and to have as my first
verbs
well because knowing how to conjugate
the verb to be and to have in the
present tense will also help you speak
in the past tense I came WeHo these two
verbs auxiliaries auxilia I came they
are the yeast to the bread the missing
link to the past tense well you get the
idea
without these two verbs you won't be
able to make yourself understood fully
and most of all you will be forever
limited to what you have to say or what
you say in French okay so what I would
like to do it start by the auxiliary
verb to have okay now remember knowing
how to say to have in the present tense
is crucial in to speaking in the past
tense well to have in French ease of
work of work can you say that well done
have well of course I'm presenting it to
you needs infinitive form okay of well
as in a
for example it has not been conjugated
yet okay avoir we have not used it with
any subject pronouns
by the way subject pronoun refer back to
one of my lessons on subject pronounce
and you'll understand what I mean when
you start conjugating this verb you will
see it will change depending on the
subject pronoun we use okay in English
to have is not changing much when
conjugating is in I have is still the
same as three have you have the only
thing that 10-sheet changes in English
is he has so you drum the ve and you add
an S instead of the M okay so it's quite
easy in English to conjugate a verb such
as they have I came but it is not in
French I came let's have a look at how
we say I have you have and remember that
the order of the subject pronounce is
always the same we have learned this
before in my section titled subject
pronoun okay Li pona sous chef Lee suji
porno okay how do you say I have in
French I have in French is Jay can you
say that well done you have to ah-choo
ah very good
he has L up L ah she has L L we have as
in on the singular form una allah phobia
we have as in the pre-roll form and a
more formal way of saying we knew Sivan
no Zevon and I do deserve the lism here
because Evan begins with a vowel news
even now you
as in the second way of saying you the
more formal way and when we talk to a
group of more than one person Mousavi vu
Zev a phobia and last how do we say they
have as you know we have two ways of
saying then it's either ill with an S or
L with an F Ness l zu o NT or LLL zone
or empty and notice that I did this
sound because L begins ends with an S
and begins and on begins with the AH a
vowel get me okay well done so what do
you notice I notice that they don't
necessarily follow a pattern and they
should definitely be learned by heart
and in this order as you will notice
they are split into singular and plural
group but like I have explained in one
of my other section titled subject
pronounce just like we learned them at
school in France I came from j2 l
singular subject pronounced to new to in
the plural subject pronouns okay let's
repeat them again with me how to say I
have you have and so on
J - ah in AH and AH una new servo
Mousavi ilysm and zone IBM right
now can you tell me what this means J
Asha J Asha okay it means I have a cat
okay because we've just learned that J
means I have so if you don't know sha is
cat in French and this one news even
twat sir
news even tois sir what do you think
that means
hmm it means we have three sisters sir
is a sister we have three sisters news
even twice sir can you translate this
one for me and AH leash of the broom
okay I know you understand L R because
we've just learnt it and below because
it means blonde and shove her hair so
she has blonde hair okay but well done
keep practicing anyway let's play a game
together look at the screen and tell me
what does news evil mean that's right it
means we have how about L zone they have
the feminine version of them
how about J I have okay Mousavi you have
I came and what about this sentence in
ah uh petechia l are a pretty sure he
has a little dog well done
so can you now translate she has
infringed that's right it's L ah very
good
what about we have uh-huh it's news evil
how about you have yeah it's two or
Mousavi depending on who you talk to
okay and which you you decide to use and
how about we have a green car can you
translate that it becomes very tricky
now we have is news ever
okay we know that we've learnt that you
know what you are left now what you risk
are unfair this green a green car
literally means a car green in French
okay in for Joe van sir I know it is
hard to remember them all now but it
comes with practice remember knowing
them means that you will be able to
express yourself in the past tense
and in and the easier it is to make
yourself understood the more confident
you become and the more confident you
are the more you speak French and so on
it's a vicious circle
really okay okay
let's now look at to be at in its
infinitive version at okay that means to
be but let's conjugate it in the present
tense like I said early on to be is it
infinitive version we have not yet
compute conjugate conjugate little look
conjugated it what was that
okay so here we go following the same
order as the subject poem okay sure to
ll nuvvu ll it goes like this
just three I am can you say that more
than G a that means you are ill a he is
very good la she is excellent only okay
that means we are or one is a Newsome
that means we are very good who's that
that means you are okay in some they are
masculine Ellison
they are feminine again there is not
much of pattern here is there okay Etra
does not look like you're sweet to air
or la okay we don't set your advert you
add for ill at work okay
so you've got to learn them by heart I'm
afraid and remember if you don't then
you'll be very limited to what you say
in French and how you speak in French
okay so it takes a bit of practice and
effort I'm afraid let's repeat them
again have a look at the screen just
three to a in a
ma only Newsom Mewsette in some L so
we're done okay
let's translate I am in French that's
just sweet very good
how about she is L a very good how about
you are uh-huh it's either to a or
Lisette
okay and how would you say I am small
okay sure sweet but II just we put a
petite if you are a girl how would you
say we are happy new some cotton content
happy okay here's another game translate
this sentence la canto Pascal are a new
voice still oh okay you're going to tell
me I'm not ready for this kind of
sentence but I'm telling you you are
okay in a means he hears we've learned
that contour not hard contour content
happy path soccer might be a bit tricky
well I'm telling you that path secure
means because ill ah that's easy we've
just learned this one he has a new for
steelo now uh if you follow my
essentials for one you will know that I
means a Nouveau new still Oh pen so
translate ill a Putin Pascal uh a
Nouveau still oh he's happy because he
has a new pen ah nice one okay what I
would like you to do now is have a look
at this one here this is the list of the
verb to have in the present tense
can you see anything missing question
mark question mark
that's right you're missing new Zevon
which is we have and here's another one
another list of to have can you see
anything missing
that's right eel zoom as in they have
masculine well done have a look now at
this one which is the to be version
present tense
okay that's right we are missing just
sweet I am just sweet and here's another
one
yes we are missing new some we are new
some ok what I'd like you to do because
it's I mean it's it's quite hard to
grasp it just in one go like that in 10
minutes I would like you to have a look
on paper what they look like
okay and remember me remember me saying
learn them by heart because you will
thank me in a long term they will become
very important when conjugating in the
past tense in French okay
they are auxiliary verbs and they are
called auxiliaries for a reason okay I
think that's it for me for today I'm
going to leave it as that and I hope you
enjoyed this series as much as enjoyed
teaching you that's it for me
oh well Monsieur au revoir Madame au
revoir Mademoiselle a via tube is Vizu
salut
