In French, I struggle with the conjugations of verbs and infinitives?

I’m in year 10, and in French class I struggle with the conjugations of verbs and infinitives.

What can i Do?

You can also buy a Bescherelle: L’Art de Conjuger.

I’ve been studying French for about 5 years now, and a Bescherelle’s really helpful because it has all the verb conjugations for just about every verb.

Make a chart of verbs in different tenses. That should help to memorize the regular verbs and irregular verbs. I hope that helps.

I would say Ellie is right.

I am fluent in French, and even so I forget some conjugations now and then. But when I need to figure them out, I use my Bescherelle. It is very easy to use since all the verbs are categorized by endings and radicals. Also, if you can’t find exactly the verb you want, you can look at the back of the book to find all the French verbs lined up alphabetically giving you page on which you have the verb that either conjugates just like it or is the actual verb. Also, they have extra tips in one or two sections of the book. Just to say, though, this is just the description of the French version. The English version is probably the same, but I would research it first.

You can buy these books off of:
