<h3>Object Pronouns: <a href="http://www.frenchspanishonline.com/magazine/?p=532">Video here</a><br />
<object classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000" width="560" height="340" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,40,0"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true" /><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always" /><param name="src" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/-4FBTBhQTME&amp;hl=en_US&amp;fs=1&amp;" /><param name="allowfullscreen" value="true" /><embed type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="560" height="340" src="http://www.youtube.com/v/-4FBTBhQTME&amp;hl=en_US&amp;fs=1&amp;" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true"></embed></object><br />
In English: me, you, him, her, it, us, you, them</h3>
<h3>1- THINGS</h3>
<p>it: le, la<br />
them: les</p>
<p>I am reading the email: I am reading it<br />
Je lis l&#8217;email: je le lis (the pronoun before the verb)<br />
Je lis la carte: je la lis<br />
J&#8217;ai reçu la lettre: je l&#8217;ai reçue<br />
J&#8217;ai reçu les lettres: je les ai reçues</p>
<h3>2-PEOPLE and GROUP of PEOPLE (Board, comity&#8230;)</h3>
<p>There are 3 sub-categories for people for Direct, Indirect, Reflexive Objects</p>
<p>Direct: you see her (her placed directly after the verb is the direct object)<br />
Indirect: You are speaking TO her (her is the indirect object)<br />
Reflexive: himself, herself, themselves.</p>
<p>However for these 3 subcategories, the first and the second persons are the same:</p>
<p>Me: me, m&#8217;<br />
You: te, t&#8217;<br />
Us: nous<br />
You: vous</p>
<p>Examples:<br />
I am talking to you: je te parle<br />
You can see me: tu me vois<br />
You are reading the book to us: tu nous lis un livre</p>
<h5>3rd Person Direct Object:</h5>
<p>him: le, l&#8217;<br />
her: la, l&#8217;<br />
them: les<br />
Examples:<br />
I invite them: je les invite<br />
I see her: je la vois<br />
I am calling him: je l&#8217;appelle<br />
<script type="text/javascript">// <![CDATA[
                                     google_ad_client = "pub-8828875100945177"; /* 300x250, created 08/10/09 */ google_ad_slot = "5887157382"; google_ad_width = 300; google_ad_height = 250;
// ]]&gt;</script><br />
<script src="http://pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/show_ads.js" type="text/javascript">
</script></p>
<h5>3rd Person Indirect Object:</h5>
<p>Him, her: lui<br />
Them: leur</p>
<p>Examples:<br />
He is writing to them: il leur écrit<br />
I am talking to her: je lui parle</p>
<h5>3rd Person Reflexive Object:</h5>
<p>Himself, herself, themselves: se, s&#8217;</p>
<p>Examples:<br />
He kills himself: il se tue<br />
He is sending the letters to himself: il s&#8217;envoie des lettres<br />
He is washing his hands: il se lave les mains</p>
<h3>3 THINGS and PEOPLE:</h3>
<p>I am sending the letter to Peter: I am sending it to him<br />
J&#8217;envoie l&#8217;email à Pierre: je le lui envoie<br />
J&#8217;envoie la fleur à Sophie: je la lui envoie</p>
<p>As you can see, the direct object is before the indirect one, however it only works with the 3r person, with the 1st and the 2nd it is the opposite:</p>
<p>Il m&#8217;envoie l&#8217;email: il me l&#8217;envoie<br />
Il te lit le livre: il te le lit<br />
Il s&#8217;envoie les lettres: il se les envoie</p>

<h3>Chez:</h3>
<p>Chez comes from a Latin word: Casa which means Home.</p>
<p>Video <a href="http://www.frenchspanishonline.com/magazine/?p=527">here</a>:<br />
<object width="480" height="385"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/AAo4Kqy9Fe0&#038;hl=en_US&#038;fs=1&#038;"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/AAo4Kqy9Fe0&#038;hl=en_US&#038;fs=1&#038;" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="480" height="385"></embed></object></p>
<h4>With Nouns:</h4>
<p>Je vais chez Pierre: I am going to Pierre&#8217;s (home)<br />
Je vais chez le docteur: I am going to the doctor&#8217;s (not his home but his office of course)<br />
Je suis passé chez ma soeur: I dropped in on my sister<br />
Elle a un sac de chez Vuitton: she has got a bag from Vuitton&#8217;s (Vuitton is the name of a person, so you can use &#8220;chez&#8221; in French)<br />
For example with supermarkets:<br />
I go to Morrisons: Je vais chez Morrisons (because Morrisons is the name of a person)<br />
I go to Safeway: Je vais à Safeway (Safeway is a brand but not the name of a person)</p>
<h4>With Pronouns:</h4>
<p>Tu viens chez moi? Do you come to my place?<br />
Oui, je viens chez toi: Yes, I come to your place<br />
Fais comme chez toi: Make yourself at home<br />
Chez nous, nous sommes 4: at home we are 4.<br />

<p>C&#8217;est mon chez moi: it is my home (better than c&#8217;est ma maison, because maison means home and house, chez moi means home)<br />
C&#8217;est notre chez nous.<br />
Tout le monde veut un chez soi: everybody wants a home. Chez soi is a general term.</p>
<p>Chez moi, chez toi, chez lui, chez elle, chez nous, chez vous, chez eux, chez elles.</p>
<h4>For Countries and Regions:</h4>
<p>Chez nous, au Canada, le français est différent: Here, in Canada, French language is different.</p>
<h4>For People and Animals:</h4>
<p>Chez les Français, c&#8217;est une habitude: for French people, it is an habit<br />
Chez les lions, la femelle est plus petite: in lions, female is smaller.</p>
<h4>Expression:</h4>
<p>C&#8217;est nul de chez nul: it is completely rubbish</p>
<p>Au Revoir!</p>

<h4>A- Simple Tenses</h4>
<h5>1- Can, Could, May, Might:</h5>
<p>We group these 4 verbs in French because they are related to one verb in French: Pouvoir</p>
<ul>
<li> Can (to be able to): I can= Je peux, You can= tu peux etc&#8230;</li>
<li>May is also pouvoir: I may= Je peux; May I?= Puis-je?<br />
She may be watching television: Elle est peut-être en train de regarder la télévision<br />
To make is clearer in French, we add the word &#8220;maybe&#8221; = &#8220;peut-être&#8221;<br />
You can use the subjunctive mood: Il se peut qu&#8217;elle regarde la télé<br />
May can express the future: he may arrive late = Il arrivera peut-être en retard, il va peut-être arriver en retard or with the subjunctive mood: il se peut qu&#8217;il arrive en retard.</li>
<li>Might= Peut-être or Could so the conditional form of Pouvoir:<br />
He might be right: il a peut-être raison<br />
I could come if&#8230;: je pourrais venir si&#8230;</li>
</ul>
<h5>2 &#8211; Must, Should:</h5>
<ul>
<li>Must: Devoir, Falloir<br />
Devoir: je dois, tu dois, il doit, nous devons, vous devez, ils doivent<br />
Falloir: il faut (just one form)<br />
You must go = tu dois y aller or il faut que tu y ailles<br />
He must be wrong: il doit se tromper</li>
<li>Should: the conditional form of the verb Devoir<br />
Je devrais, tu devrais, il devrait, nous devrions, vous devriez, ils devraient<br />
I should go: je devrais y aller</li>
</ul>
<h4>B &#8211; Compound Tenses:</h4>
<h5>1-  Can, Could, May, Might<br />

<script src="http://pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/show_ads.js" type="text/javascript">
</script></h5>
<p>You need to know the past participle of pouvoir: pu<br />
The modal verbs act like auxiliary verbs in English, not in French</p>
<p>He could have come but: il aurait pu venir (as you can see, could becomes the past participle and have the auxiliary verb)<br />
She can&#8217;t have seen you: Elle n&#8217;a pas pu te voir<br />
I may have forgotten it: J&#8217;ai pu l&#8217;oublier or je l&#8217;ai peut-être oublié<br />
You might have told me: tu aurais pu me dire</p>
<h5>2- Should:</h5>
<p>You need to know the past participle of devoir: dû</p>
<p>He should have come: Il aurait dû venir<br />
You should have been a doctore: tu aurais dû être docteur</p>
<h5>3- Exercises:</h5>
<p>a-It may rain later<br />
b-I may not have time to do it<br />
c-I might not go<br />
d-It might rain this afternoon<br />
e-He should go to a doctor<br />
f-He should have got there by now<br />
g-He must have left<br />
h-He might have left<br />
i-He could have left<br />
j-He should have left</p>
<h5>Answers:</h5>
<p>a-Il pleuvra peut-être plus tard, il va peut-être pleuvoir plus tard, il se peut qu&#8217;il pleuve plus tard<br />
b-Je n&#8217;aurai (future) peut-être pas le le temps de le faire , je ne vais peut-être pas avoir le temps, il se peut que je n&#8217;aie pas le temps de la faire<br />
c-Je pourrais (conditional) peut-être ne pas y aller, il se pourrait que je n&#8217;y aille pas<br />
d- il se pourrait qu&#8217;il pleuve cet après-midi, il pourrait peut-être pleuvoir&#8230;<br />
e- il devrait aller chez le docteur<br />
f- Il devrait y être maintenant<br />
g- il a du partir, however because the verb partir needs the auxiliary verb &#8220;to be&#8221; you can also say: il doit être parti, il faut qu&#8217;il soit parti<br />
h- il aurait peut-être pu partir; peut-être qu&#8217;il aurait pu partir<br />
i-  Il aurait pu partir<br />
j- Il aurait dû partir or because of to be: Il devrait être parti</p>
<p>As you can see, many possibilities, try to focus on the crossing verbs rule first.</p>

<h3>Present Perfect Continuous or Progressive in French:</h3>
<p><a href="http://www.frenchspanishonline.com/magazine/?p=513"> Video here</a>: http://www.frenchspanishonline.com/magazine/?p=513<br />
<object classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000" width="480" height="385" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,40,0"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true" /><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always" /><param name="src" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/Dss0G25vVm8&amp;hl=en_US&amp;fs=1&amp;" /><param name="allowfullscreen" value="true" /><embed type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="480" height="385" src="http://www.youtube.com/v/Dss0G25vVm8&amp;hl=en_US&amp;fs=1&amp;" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true"></embed></object><br />
You know that in English, we use this tense to speak about continuous facts or activities which have started in the past and either are continuing in the present or have just ended.<br />
In French, we do not have such a tense, to translate the Present Perfect Continuous we need 2 tenses.</p>
<h4>1- Present Perfect Continuous in French: le Passé Composé</h4>
<p>the Passé Composé is only for things in the past, so if you want to translate &#8220;I have been working all day&#8221;, first you need to express if you are still working or not.</p>
<p>You have stopped: J&#8217;ai travaillé toute la journée<br />
You are still working: J&#8217;ai travaillé toute la journée <span style="text-decoration: underline;">et ça continue </span> (you need to make clear that you are still working)</p>
<p>It has been snowing all week:<br />
It has stopped: Il a neigé toute la semaine<br />
It is still snowing: Il a neigé toute la semaine et ça continue</p>
<h4>2- Present Perfect Continuous in sentences with &#8220;for&#8221; or &#8220;since&#8221;: le Présent</h4>
<p>It has been snowing since Monday: Il neige depuis lundi</p>
<p>It has been snowing for 5 days:</p>
<ol>
<li> Il neige depuis 5 jours</li>
<li>ça fait 5 jours qu&#8217;il neige</li>
<li>Il y a 5 jours qu&#8217;il neige</li>
</ol>
<p>I have been learning French since 2001: j&#8217;apprends le français depuis 2001<br />
<script type="text/javascript">// <![CDATA[
                              google_ad_client = "pub-8828875100945177"; /* 300x250, created 08/10/09 */ google_ad_slot = "5887157382"; google_ad_width = 300; google_ad_height = 250;

I have been learning French for 9 years:</p>
<ol>
<li>J&#8217;apprends le français depuis 9 ans</li>
<li>ça fait 9 ans que j&#8217;apprends le français</li>
<li>Il y a 9 ans que j&#8217;apprends le français</li>
</ol>
<p>I have been working since 8am: je travaille depuis 8 heures ce matin</p>
<p>I have been working for 8 hours:</p>
<ol>
<li>ça fait 8 heures que je travaille</li>
<li>il y a 8 heures que je travaille</li>
<li>we do not say je travaille depuis 8 heures, it is too confusing, see the video.</li>
</ol>
<h4>3- EXERCISES: (the answer is in the video)</h4>
<p>I have been reading all morning and I have just finished my book</p>
<p>He has been watching too much television lately</p>
<p>She has been talking for 2 hours</p>
<p>She has been talking since noun</p>
<p>I have been playing tennis for a long time</p>
<p>Fini!</p>
<p>ERRATUM: the word &#8220;noon&#8221; is misspelled in the video, sorry about that!</p>

Vamos a ver los dos futuros: el futuro pr﻿óximo y el tiempo futuro.</p>
<p>1- Futuro Próximo:</p>
<p>Para decir &#8220;voy a comer&#8221; en Francés, es el futuro próximo.<br />
Se usa como en español el verbo ir y el infinitivo del verbo siguiente.</p>
<ul>
<li>Voy a comer: je vais manger</li>
<li>Vas a comer: tu vas manger</li>
<li>Va a comer: il va manger</li>
<li>Vamos a comer: nous allons manger</li>
<li>Vais a comer: vous allez manger</li>
<li>Van a comer: ils vont manger</li>
</ul>
<p>2- el Futuro:<br />
<script type="text/javascript">// <![CDATA[
                               google_ad_client = "pub-8828875100945177"; /* 300x250, created 08/10/09 */ google_ad_slot = "5887157382"; google_ad_width = 300; google_ad_height = 250;

En francés como en español, se necesita como raiz el infinitivo del verbo (hasta la ultima &#8220;r&#8221;) mas la terminación del futuro que es el verbo haber:</p>
<p>asi que comer es manger:</p>
<ul>
<li>comeré: je mangerai</li>
<li>comeras: tu mangeras</li>
<li>comera: il mangera</li>
<li>comeremos: nous mangerons</li>
<li>comereis: vous mangerez</li>
<li>comerán: ils mangeront</li>
</ul>
<p>Con tomar o prendre en francés, se usa todas las letras hasta la r final:</p>
<ul>
<li>je prendrai</li>
<li>tu prendras</li>
<li>il prendra</li>
<li>nous prendrons</li>
<li>vous prendrez</li>
<li>ils prendront</li>
</ul>
<p>Verbos Iregulares:</p>
<p>Avoir (haber, tener): j&#8217;aurai, tu auras, il aura, nous aurons, vous aurez, ils auront<br />
Etre (ser, estar): je serai, tu seras, il sera, nous serons, vous serez, ils seront<br />
Appeler (llamar): j&#8217;appellerai, tu appelleras, il appellera&#8230;<br />
Aller (ir): j&#8217;irai, tu iras, il ira&#8230;<br />
Faire (hacer): je ferais, tu feras, il fera&#8230;<br />
Vouloir (querer): je voudrai, tu voudras, il voudra&#8230;<br />
Pleuvoir (llover): il pleuvra</p>

<h3>French Past Subjunctive: <a href=" http://www.frenchspanishonline.com/magazine/?p=492">Video Link</a></h3>
<p><object classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000" width="480" height="385" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,40,0"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true" /><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always" /><param name="src" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/UDwsai4Ngq0&amp;hl=en_US&amp;fs=1&amp;" /><param name="allowfullscreen" value="true" /><embed type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="480" height="385" src="http://www.youtube.com/v/UDwsai4Ngq0&amp;hl=en_US&amp;fs=1&amp;" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true"></embed></object><br />
1- When to use it: For the same reasons as the ones seen in the lesson about present subjunctive, when the first part of the sentence (the part before &#8220;que&#8221;) expresses a will, a wish, an obligation or a doubt.</p>
<p>2- It looks like the &#8220;Passé Composé&#8221;, because it needs an auxiliary verb following with a past participle, the difference is that the auxiliary verb is in subjunctive mood, so you need to know the subjunctive forms of the two auxiliary verbs in French: avoir and être.</p>
<p>Passé Composé: Tu es venu (you came or you have come)<br />
Subjonctif Passé: Que tu sois venu<br />
Passé Composé: Il a mangé<br />
Subjonctif Passé: Qu&#8217;il ait mangé<br />
<script type="text/javascript">// <![CDATA[
                         google_ad_client = "pub-8828875100945177"; /* 300x250, created 08/10/09 */ google_ad_slot = "5887157382"; google_ad_width = 300; google_ad_height = 250;
// ]]&gt;</script><br />
<script src="http://pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/show_ads.js" type="text/javascript">
</script><br />
3- Why do we need this tense?</p>
<p>the structure of the sentence is like this: First Part QUE Second Part<br />
If the first part and the second part take place at the same time, we use the present subjunctive to translate the second part.<br />
If the second part takes place before the first one, we use the past subjunctive to translate it.</p>
<p>4- Examples:</p>
<p>I am afraid he is coming: j&#8217;ai peur qu&#8217;il vienne (present)<br />
I am afraid he came: j&#8217;ai peur qu&#8217;il soit venu (past)<br />
I was afraid that he came: j&#8217;ai eu peur qu&#8217;il vienne (present)<br />
Iwas afraid he had come: j&#8217;ai eu peur qu&#8217;il soit venu (past)</p>
<p>I am happy that he is leaving: Je suis heureux qu&#8217;il parte<br />
I am happy he left: je suis heureux qu&#8217;il soit parti<br />
I was happy he left: J&#8217;étais heureux qu&#8217;il parte<br />
I was happy he had left: j&#8217;étais heureux qu&#8217;il soit parti</p>
<p>5- Exercises: (the answer is on the video)</p>
<p>I don&#8217;t think he is coming<br />
I don&#8217;t think he came<br />
I want him to arrive on time at the station<br />
I wanted him to arrive on time at the station<br />
I wanted him to have arrived on time at the station</p>
<p>AU REVOIR!</p>
