What makes etre verbs different? • Instead of using avoir as a helping verb, you are going to use être. You still need to conjugate it to agree with the subject. Remember: Je suis Nous sommes Tu es Vous êtes Il, elle, on est ils, elles sont • You’ll still have your subject, then your conjugated helping verb, then a past participle • Unlike with avoir, the participle will change, it needs –e or -s endings to agree with the subject in gender and number

Examples Passé Composé with Avoir J’ai visité Paris. I visited Paris. Passé Composé with Etre Nous sommes allés à la plage. We went to the beach. Napoleon est né le 15 aout, 1769. Napoleon was born August 15, 1769. Elle est arrivée à Paris. She arrived at Paris.

Past Participles • Like with avoir, the past participles of verbs that end in –er are going to change to é, then add endings for feminine or plural agreement • Verbs that end in –re change to u for the participle, Ir verbs change to –i for the participle • Some of the past participles with être are irregular: Mourir- mort (de)(re)venir- (de)(re)venu Naître- né
