Bonjour à tout le monde!
Today's topic is not difficult - le gérondif, which means 2 actions en même temps and les 2 actions ont le même sujet (= "while verb+ing").
To be frank, I have not formally learnt this verb form yet, but I do know its basic use because two teachers have mentioned it before.
le gérondif = en + participe présent
It is easy to form le participe présent:
- make sure you know the spelling of the present tense conjugations
- take the root of the 1st person plural (nous)
- - ons
- + ant
For example:
parler => parlons - ons + ant => parlant
choisir => choisissons - ons + ant => choisissant
venir => venons - ons + ant => venant
Ok, let's take a look at the following examples to learn the usage:
ex. Nous déjeunons en regardant la télévision.
ex. Il lit en écoutant de la musique.
ex. Ils travaillent en discutant.
How easy this grammar rule is! (... because I introduced a difficult topic yesterday and I need a break! ^O^)
Merci et à bientôt!
