Impersonal verbs
Most verbs are personal: they must be conjugated to different persons, such as:
- "manger" (to eat): je mange (I eat), tu manges (you eat), etc.
However, some verbs are used impersonaly, meaning they only have one conjugation, the third person singular.
- we can say "Il pleut". However, we cannot say "Je pleus".
- See also the impersonal form.
