French -ir verbs worksheet

The group where regular and irregular verbs look alike — which is exactly why it needs drilling.

French -ir verbs split into two families that look identical in the infinitive: the regular finir type with its -iss- expansion (nous finissons), and irregular ones like venir, partir and ouvrir that behave nothing like it. Practising them mixed is what teaches students to tell the two apart.

    Answer key

      How to use this worksheet

      • Run the sheet once with mixed verbs so students meet both the -iss- pattern and the irregulars in the same set.
      • Set the verb group to irregular verbs for a follow-up sheet that isolates venir, partir, sortir and dormir.
      • Add passé composé at A2 — the -ir group is where auxiliary choice (être vs avoir) starts to bite.
