Nothing like the Present<\/h1>\n<\/div>\n

This week, we’re following the Latin motto Carpe Diem<\/strong>, and we seize the day by mastering the French present tense<\/strong>\u00a0\ud83d\ude0e<\/p>\n

Here’s one main difference with the French present tense, and for once it makes your lives easier (I know!): in French, there is no difference between “I’m playing” and “I play”, we use Le Pr\u00e9sent<\/em> “je joue”<\/em> for both\u00a0\ud83d\ude0a<\/p>\n

Alors, sans plus attendre<\/em>, let’s enjoy the present selection of French Kwiziq content we’ve selected for you!\u00a0\ud83e\udd17<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\n

Quote me on this!<\/h2>\n

French poet Pierre de Ronsard (1864-1910)<\/p>\n

\"Pierre<\/div>\n

The idea of enjoying life day to day is not a new concept. French poet\u00a0Pierre de Ronsard<\/strong> was already writing about the brevity of life in his famous\u00a0“Sonnets pour H\u00e9l\u00e8ne”<\/strong><\/em>\u00a0in 1578:<\/p>\n

“Vivez, si m’en croyez, n’attendez \u00e0 demain :
\nCueillez d\u00e8s aujourd’hui les roses de la vie”<\/em><\/p>\n

(Live, if you believe me, do not wait for tomorrow:
\nPick the roses of life today)<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n\n\n\n
\n

French Building Blocks<\/h2>\n

Present tense – A1 Level<\/p>\n

\"boy<\/div>\n

St\u00e9phane loves enjoying a sunny day in the meadow close to his house, in the following text, packed with verbs in Le Pr\u00e9sent<\/em>:<\/p>\n

“Quand il fait<\/strong> beau, je vais<\/strong> m’allonger sous le grand arbre qui se trouve<\/strong> dans la prairie d’\u00e0 c\u00f4t\u00e9. L\u00e0, je ferme<\/strong> les yeux, et je laisse<\/strong>\u00a0la lumi\u00e8re danser derri\u00e8re mes paupi\u00e8res. C’est<\/strong> tellement relaxant. Parfois, un papillon vient<\/strong> se poser pr\u00e8s de moi, ou un petit \u00e9cureuil s’approche<\/strong> et je le nourris<\/strong> de petites noisettes… Le monde n’a<\/strong> plus de prise sur moi, et je savoure<\/strong>\u00a0simplement le moment pr\u00e9sent.”<\/em><\/p>\n
