For regular verbs which have 'avoir' as their auxiliary verb, how would you form the perfect past tense? (for er, re and ir verbs)
Take the present tense of the auxiliary (avoir)
Form the past participle for the verb by removing the ‘er’, ‘re’, and ‘ir’ and then…
For:
‘ir’ verbs add ‘i’
‘er’ verbs add ‘é’
‘re’ verbs add ‘u’
Do, however, be aware of the irregular verbs which you will have to learn the past participle of.
For example, with ‘I have eaten’:
J’ai
Manger --- mang --- mangé
J’ai mangé
