    » ConjugateFR 2.7.1 Description

    Can't remember the conjugation of that irregular into the conditional? Accidentally wrote the assignment due tommorow in present when it should be in past? Well ConjugateFR is for you. The tiny, free ConjugateFR conjugates french verbs into every single one of the 23 combinations of moods and tenses in french there are. So if you are learning french or are going to be travelling to any francophone country download it today! Unlike the commercial conjugators, ConjugateFR has been designed with all the quirks of the french language in mind, so it is very small: the program and database (which are in one file together) only take 36kb, whereas the smallest other one I've seen is 83kb for just the database. It also knows about negatives and different voices. Even more, it notifies you if the verb needs to agree with something! If you find any bugs (especially improperly conjugated verbs), or just want to send a note, please email me about it and I'll get back to you quickly. :)

    Updated Description:

    Sorry it's so huge now, I'll work on making it smaller.
    Version 2.7.1
    • forced ralentir to -ir (thanks Berit Reise!)
    • forced vieillir to -ir (thanks Andre Lubineau!)
    Version 2.7
    • Code reorganization to make it more general, in preparation for branching out to other languages
    • Now shows what group the verb is in
    • Fixed
      • faillir futur/cond. & sub pres to have the modern formation, removed the impératif form
      • clore past part.
      • -clure p.simp.
      • -ger & -éger ils p.simp.
      • -ger: ils p.simp. Is diff from sub. Imparfait
      • faire present (forgot to remove mod char, thanks a lot of different people)
      • -pre pass. simp.
      • choir participe
      • luire pass. simp. which is in fact _not_ the same as the subjonctif imparfait (this one caused a big leap in size because had to redo everything so that passe simple and subjonctif imparfait can be specified differently)
      • résoudre's past participle is résolu, not résous
    • Added
      • défaillir is -aillir, not faillir
      • répartir, assortir & réassortir to 'force to -ir' list
      • enclore & éclore/déclore
      • échoir only exists in 3rd person, & it does exist in imparfait, unlike choir
      • -raire (to fix raire & braire)
      • déchoir
      • maudire (past participle adds an 's')
    • Removed
      • -re
      • -tre
      • bruire & maudire, replaced w/ a force-to-ir entry
      • exceptions for luire & nuire
    Version 2.6.2
    • fixed
      • -oître (and gave croître it's own rule)
      • exceptions to -uire (nuire, luire)
      • dire's compounds were crashing (thanks Jean-François Bouverat)
    • added
      • -éper & -eper
      • that -oître & -aître verbs can also be spelled -oitre & -aitre
      • prévaloir (subjonctif présent differs from valoir)
      • exceptions to -clure (inclure, occlure)
      • résoudre (small differences from -soudre)
      • circoncire & suffire (small differences from -ire)

    Version 2.6.1
    • put {me, te, se, nous, vous, se} in infinitif pronomiale
    • fixed:
      • -éger
      • -ïr (thanks Jens Olschewski)
      • -enir (thanks Olivier Caleff)
      • subjonctif present of vouloir (thanks Marc Guillemont) (it had the wrong vowel in nous & vous) and then fixed the same problem with mourir, ouïr, pourvoir & valoir
      • appeler was getting caught as an irregular -eler because it contains peler which is an irregular -eler
      • descendre & montre are now on the list of être verbs
    • added:
      • added -e(.)er and -é(.)er endings
      • fuir & suivre (thanks Jens Olschewski)

    Version 2.6
    • Fixed the sizing glitch that would cut off the dropdowns if they were too long when you conjugated things, but only on OS5; I hate OS5
    • cut out over 2k of useless baggage
    • sped it up drastically: now only call getRule() once + other improvements
    • fixed over 100 memory leaks
    • added agreement to participe
    • fixed gérondif passé passive (it had some garbage being put in from the templates that I forgot to remove) (thanks François Kim)
    • improved docs some, corrected typos (thanks Olivier Caleff & François Kim)
    • fixed algorthm: now it keeps searching the regulars even after finding an irregular match
    • fixed various verbs

    Version 2.5.1
    • readded most of the endings I took out before. Turns out I need them after all (for example, courir, venir, tenir). I'm going to research this more and see how I should actually have them, but for now all those verbs that were broken because of that are fixed.
    • a few minor grammar fixes
    • reorganized the code to be more efficient

    Version 2.5
    • Added the passive voice! Yayyaya!
    • LOTS of bug fixes and simplifications of the database
    • put infinitif last on modes list
    • Grammar fixes:
