Le conditionnel.jpg

Bonjour French learners,😊

How do we use the conditional tense in French?

When to use?

The conditional expresses, the hypothetical and the possible: it describes events that are not guaranteed to occur.

Examples

  • Il vous appellerait s'il savait que vous l'aimez = He would call you if he knew that you loved him
  • Si vous nettoyiez votre chambre, votre colocataire serait plus gentil avec vous = If you cleaned your room, your roommate would be nicer to you.
  • Il mangerait s'il avait faim = He would eat if he were hungry
  • Si nous étudiions, nous serions plus intelligents = If we studied, (then) we would be smarter.
