Last week's conjugation contest ended in a three way tie. We all got one wrong. Thank you to H for forgetting the accent circonflex on "plaît" or K and I would have had to do a tie-breaker! A tie-breaker consists of randomly choosing a verb out of the book that we have never studied and guessing at the conjugations.
K and I made the same mistake- and it was a bizarre one. We both conjugated the participe passé of "vivre" as "veçu." That isn't even remotely close. The correct conjugation is "vécu." Okay, to an American that looks close, but it isn't. I think we both messed up like that because last week we studied "recevoir," which has "reçu" for its paricipe passé. Anyway, you now feel like you just read an article about a Scrabble tournament. My apologies.
