The French for fall, fall down, drop, subside, fail is the verb tomber
The Verb Tables of Conjugation below for tomber, allow you to practise your French verbs both by
- PRONOUN (vertically) - that is I, you, we, he, she, they etc, AND ALSO by
- TENSE (horizontally).
Learn them BOTH ways. Most verb tables only teach by tense, so that for example, you cannot actually learn the words for I from one tense to the other EXCEPT through learning each table by tense.
In other words - a student is usually taught - I go, you go, he goes, we go, they go … BUT NOT I go, I went, I will go, I would go, I may go, I have gone etc, etc. These table allow this.
