Bonjour French learners,😊
How do we use the conditional tense in French?
When to use?
The conditional expresses the hypothetic 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.
