Our verb of the week is marcher:
to walk!
Marcher is an easy to conjugate verb of the ER type.
Many verbs ending in ER follow the same conjugation pattern, therefore it can be very useful to memorize this
pattern.

Please note
that the root of the verb never changes! You can obtain the root of any ER verb*
by removing the “ER” ending to the infinitive.
In theory,
which this knowledge you should be able to conjugate other ER verbs, like jouer (to play) and acheter (to buy)!
Your
challenge:
1. Conjugate jouer in the present tense.
2. Go for a walk, it’s healthy!
*A few
verbs ending in ER are not actually ER verbs but exceptions. Aller (to go) is one of these.
