If the verb ends with “er”, it turns into “é”.

If the verb ends with “re”, it turns into “u”
If the verb ends with “ir”, it turns to “i”. Please correct me if i’m wrong, this is passé composé, and i’m trying to figure out if i’m doing it correctly. Thanks.

Bonjour,


Le passé composé se forme avec l'auxiliaire "être" ou "avoir", au présent, suivi du participe passé du verbe à conjuguer.

Il y a différentes formes du participe passé :


-é pour les verbes du 1er groupe

Exemple : Vous avez joué.


-i pour les verbes du 2e groupe :

Exemple : J’ai fini.

Et :

-i, -u, -is, -it, -int, -rt pour les verbes du 3e groupe

Exemples :

Je suis parti

tu as lu

il est assis .....

Yes, you are doing this correctly, but there might be special cases and exceptions to the rule, for example if you're dealing with avoir.

In that case, it would turn into eu, J'ai eu.

You can use WordReference to double check for the past participle when unclear as well!
