L IMPARFAIT
LIMPARFAITUSESThe imperfect tense (l'imparfait) has two primary uses: to describe on-going actions and states of being in the past to state habitual actions in the past.As a DESCRIPTION
LIMPARFAITUSESto describe on-going actions and states of being in the pastThe imparfait is used to describe people, places, conditions or situations in the past. Some verbs occur more frequently in the imparfait when they are in the past since they typically describe states of being: tre, avoir, vouloir, pouvoir.
**But can be used in the pass compos**
