In this video presentation, we will see how to conjugate French verbs ending by -ER (e.g, travailler, étudier, habiter, parler, manger etc.) in the present tense.

We will discover other verbs’ conjugation in the present tense during our course. Occasionally their conjugation will be formally presented in a grammar point or they will be seen in context, and you will be able to check their conjugation in WordReference.
