Language Classes, 11/29

[game-of-you.livejournal.com]

Dream appears relatively cheerful today. The room seems a little bigger and sunnier, and the juice and pastries he set out might be especially delicious.

Languages of Europe: We have a quiz on conjugation of regular -er verbs today. In addition, we're going to discuss regular -ir verbs. The verb form that ends in -ir is called the infinitive (in English, the infinitive is the verb preceded by the word "to"). -ir is the infinitive ending. The verb without the -ir is called the stem or radical.

To conjugate an -ir verb, remove the infinitive ending and then add the appropriate endings, as follows:
je -is; tu -is; il -it; nous -issons; vous -issez; ils -issent. For example, choisir -- to choose -- is conjugated je choisis, tu choisis, il choisit, nous choisissons, vous choisissez, ils choisissent.

Cat: We have a special guest today, groovy_cat. Cat, let me know when you wish to lead your talk. I understand you have some experience with a cat God that might interest my students?

Dream is concerned.

//This makes you the third student in this class to involuntarily suffer time as a cat.

I think transformations are suspended for the remainder of term. I don't know why the magic is going awry, but if it is...//

Mrrreewreee.

//We think it's the book; not the class. But that's...probably for the best.//

//At least the class allows you to communicate more easily.

Still -- yes, it is for the best.//
