The objective of this course is to examine the different uses of the French verbal tenses using authentic text excerpts from francophone novels or French poems sung by famous singers. These texts will illustrate the aspectual, temporal and enunciative uses of verbal tenses. Students will be invited to write texts of their own to invest and readjust their knowledge in the field of verbal tenses. These texts will be analysed collectively so that students can develop their metalinguistic ability and improve their writing skills.
