En Français
The verb with its complete ending; in our case an
«er » ending

LES VERBES EN LE PRÉSENT
To use a verb in the present tense, conjugate the
verb according to the subject pronoun that is
being used.
The verb in the present tense and the subject will
always stay together.
[subject + verb in present tense]
[ je mange]
[ tu parles]

VERBE + INFINITIF

be conjugated in the present tense and the second
verb will always be in the infinitive (end with er).

the first verb will always be conjugated (its
ending will change) and the second verb will
always remain in the infinitive form (its ending
will not change).
