Tableaux de Conjugaison (Conjugation tables): Tenses, voices and moods of the French Language

Tableaux de conjugaison (Temps, voix et modes des verbes français) or Conjugation tables (tenses, voices and moods of the French verbs) is a book which seeks to simplify French verb conjugation especially for the Anglophone learners and students. French language verb conjugation is what some people consider as too "technical" to handle. As a result writing a French textbook to explain this "too technical" issue is a welcome decision and practice both to me as a lecturer and to students. Most of the time, the latter tend to compare the French verb style with that of the English and they conclude that French verbs are more difficult to conjugate. Consequently, some of them ask questions as to the easiest way to go about learning and mastering the verbs. In answer to their questions, I decided to write this book which someone described as "a nice little piece of work which carries a lot of weight". I wrote the 1st edition in 2010 and it was so good, that is it met the needs of students at that point in time. However, I came to realize that some topics were missing in the book and this I found out based on the questions that students ask on a daily basis. Allied to the above, I came up with this revised and updated edition. I have reworked the 1st edition and included a lot of important topics which will help learners in mastering the French verbs: vis-à-vis: conjugation in all the tenses, ability to differentiate the moods of the French verbs, having an in-depth knowledge of voices - active and passive, a mastery of the direct and indirect object complements - by this, learners will be able to know the verbs which are direct and indirect complements during the study of pronoun complement. Furthermore, I have included some sentences with some of the verbs treated herein. To cap it all, this book also comes in a an audio-visual format to help the learner in pronunciation. Nevertheless, I must add that the audio-visual does not contain all that we have in the book. In this book, you will learn how to conjugate all the French verbs, in all the moods and tenses; including: 1.The Indicative mood (the present tense, the "passé composé", the imperfect, the future tense, etc) 2.The Subjunctive mood 3.The Imperative/command 4.The Conditional, etc Furthermore, all is well explained in English Language. I sincerely hope that this whole package would satisfy your need as a leaner, more so as an Anglophone learner.
