Maudit Maudite PART IV. IRREGULAR VERBS OF THE SECOND CLASS. The irregular verbs of the second class are those which, like the irregular verbs of the first class, have a stem not invariable in their primitive tenses, and have besides in some of their derivative tenses a stem different from the stem of the primitive tense from which they are derived. It is then necessary to notice. 1. The change of stem in the primitive tenses. 2. The change of stem in the derivative tenses, or in only one or two persons of any derivative tense. All irregularities in the derivative tenses are written in full in the following tables. Apart from these changes, irregular verbs of the second class are conjugated according to the principle laid down for the conjugation of regular verbs. Changes of stem, if there are any, in the derivative tenses always take place in the derivative of the Infinitive and of the Present Participle, and never in the other derivatives, except for the derivative tense of the Present Indicative of the verbs Aller, Savoir, Vouloir. See those verbs further on in this Part IV. Here is the complete list of the irregular verbs of the second class : And all the compounds of these verbs, if there are any. Pourvoir, as said before, is the only verb of this class having its stem entire. 103 Aller, to go, to run, to extend, to move, to get on, to become, to do, to travel, to fit, to This verb is conjugated in the reflexive form with pronoun en. In the Present Indicative you may say Je m'en vais, or Je m'en vas. Say Nous nous en sommes allés, and not Nous nous sommes en allés. : S'en aller loses one pronoun when used in the Infinitive after the verb Faire. S'en aller followed by an Infinitive expresses a Future. Note the Imperative: Va t'en, not Va-t-en, Allons-nous-en, Allez-vous-en. Future and the Conditional: J'irai, J'irais, instead of J'y irai, J'y irais. You may say Aller se or S'aller when the reflexive pronoun is the object of a verb. Aller se battre, or S'aller battre. (It is better to use the first form.) Je vas may be used instead of Je vais in the comic style. Je vas me coucher. |
