Key Concepts & Definitions

  • Infinitif (French infinitive): The base form of a verb in French, typically ending in -er, -ir, or -re, used as a non-conjugated form. It functions as a noun or as part of compound verb structures.
  • Definition and use of infinitive verbs in French: Infinitives serve as the fundamental form of verbs, used after modal verbs, in periphrastic constructions, or as nouns. They do not indicate tense or subject agreement.
  • Examples of French infinitives: Common infinitives include manger (to eat), courir (to run), être (to be), avoir (to have), faire (to do/make). These serve as the base for conjugation and grammatical functions.
