Excerpt from The French Verb Simplified Neither the French verb nor the verb of any language can be mastered without effort or in a very short space of time, and all promises to teach the verb at a glance are delusive. This treatise, as implied by its name, is an attempt to simplify a very important part of the French Grammar. It is not merely a theoretical exposition of the French verb, but is the result of years of practical teaching in the school room. It is published at the repeated requests of many of my former students of Emory College, and, it is hoped that it may prove useful to others also. It is not intended to take the place of a grammar, and, to encourage the use of the dictionary, the French forms are given without their English equivalents. The blank pages are intended for notes on the idiomatic uses of the different verbs. The blank index, if properly filled out, will make the notes more accessible.
