The verb appeler
One of the first things you learn to say in a foreign language, is your name, in French: “Je m’appelle ______” (literally- “I call myself ____”, but you didn’t learn the conjugation. This verb, and other verbs like it, have a slightly different conjugation than regular -er verbs. “appeler” means “to call“. Here is its conjugation:
appeler – to call (past participle: appelé)
| j’ | appelle | nous |
appelons |
| tu | appelles | vous | appelez |
| il | appelle | ils | appellent |
| elle | appelle | elles | appellent |
| on | appelle | ||
The verb épeler (to spell), jeter, and …are also explored in this chapter…(for example, the verb jeter also has a double consonant in the boot).
