Important French Verbs
Aside from the conversational words and phrases above, you’ve also got to know the absolute most common French verbs:
- Être — to be
- Avoir — to have
- Aller — to go
These verbs are irregular, meaning they don’t follow the same rules of usage (or conjugation) that so-called regular verbs do.
Most French verbs are regular, meaning you only have to learn the endings of their group.
In French, there are three groups of so-called regular verbs, denoted by their infinitive (unconjugated) endings: -er verbs, -ir verbs and -re verbs.
Here are the most common verbs in each group:
-Er Verbs

Part 1 — Learn: In the first part, you’ll get the French words and their meanings. Your job is to just read through, get acquainted, and write them out in the provided space.
Part 2 — Practice: In the second part, you get the French words and phrases without translations. Your job is to write the English translation here. You can glance at part one for answers if you don’t yet remember the meanings.
Part 3 — Test: In the 3rd part, you get just the translation. Your job is to try and remember the French word and write it out on the provided line. Try not to look at the answers.
By the end, you’ll remember French better because you’ve practiced and have been tested.
You can also print out several copies of the French workbook PDFs for extra practice.
- Practicing and “using” the language is the fastest way to improve.
- You’ll easily memorize French thanks to the practice.
- You’ll be able to speak and understand more French, as a result.
You want to learn French, right?
Well, the best way to learn French and use it confidently… is through practice. You can’t just just listen to French and hope it sticks. You’ll still need to produce the language, whether through speaking or writing. And practicing using French is what will make French feel natural to you… and take you to fluency.
That’s where these workbooks come in.
With these workbooks, you’ll master must-know words, phrases, and grammar rules. And, you’ll get to practice using these words — so that they get stuck in your head for good. The goal of our workbooks is three-fold:
- Teach you new words, phrases, expressions, and grammar rules.
- Let you practice writing them out.
- And test you on how well you remember the words and phrases.
And best of all? They’re free for FrenchPod101 members. So, download these workbooks, print them out and start practicing French.
