Features: This book is compiled based on the basic needs of daily communication and general listening, speaking, reading, and writing skills. It includes 365 commonly used French verbs, as verbs are the most variable, challenging to master, yet most important word class in French. The selection of words covers various aspects of daily life, ensuring rich and easy-to-understand examples for learning. The arrangement of words is organized by difficulty level and usage frequency. Under each main word, the essential conjugation forms—present indicative and compound past tense—are listed first. Additional simple future tense, present conditional tense, imperative form, or passive voice are also provided based on the tenses and moods in the examples. Brief explanations of the word meaning and usage are given, followed by examples demonstrating the main usage. Finally, closely related words such as fixed phrases, gerunds, adjectives, and synonyms are introduced. At the end of the book, there is an alphabetical index of the 365 verbs for easy reference, allowing learners to selectively find specific verbs based on their learning needs. The book is written in standardized language, rich in content, scientifically organized, and highly practical, making it suitable for beginners of professional French, students of second foreign language French, overseas intensive training course participants, and self-learners.
