L'impératif des verbes pronominaux

Another tricky question is where to put pronoun in a sentence with imperative form of pronominal verbs (verbs with 'se'), such as se laver (wash oneself)

At first recall the conjugation of such verbs:

je me lave nous nous lavons

tu te lave vous vous lavez

il se lave ils se lavent

Je ne me lave pas.

And here are imperative forms:

And here is the list of mostly used pronominal verbs.

Adjectives before a Noun

It's difficult for me to remember that some adverbs in French go before the predicative. But they do.. So I should keep these adverbs in mind:

bien (already) J'ai bien entendu.

mal (bad(ly), poorly) J'ai mal préparé.

beaucoup (a lot) Il'a beaucoup changé.

assez (enough) Elle a assez vu.

peu (little) Ils ont peu fait.

trop (too much) J'ai trop mangé.

rien (nothing) Il n'a rien dit.

jamais (never) Je ne l'ai jamais vu.

encore (as well) Je ai encore visité le Louvre.

déjà (already) J'ai déjà acheté ce journal.

En

If in the question the noun is used with an indefinite article we can use adverbial pronoun 'en' before the predicate in the answer.

As tu un frère?

Je n'en ai pas.

J'en ai un.

'En' = 'some', 'any' or 'one'.

'En' is used instead of partitive article + noun or de+indefinite article+ noun.

Y-a-t-il beaucoup de pommes?

Il y en a beaucoup.

Avez-vous des allunettes?

J'en ai.

Faut-il acter des pommes?

Achetez-en!

NB! Partitive article in French has four forms and = 'some', 'any'.

• du - masculine Sg
• de la - feminine Sg
• de l' - m or f in front of a vowel or silent h
• des - m or f Pl

L'indicatif du Présent (Part1)

Several months of not practicing French and I can't recall how to say "you do" :) So, this table helps me a lot.

(The most stubborn forms that refuse to be kept in my head are marked pink. Probably, you've got problems with them, too..)

In French there are three verbs with unusual forms for the second person- they end on 's'. These three guys are être, faire and dire. The forms for 'you V' are êtes, faites and dites.
