There are five types of verbs in French grammar: 1) regular -ER,  2) regular -IR, 3) regular –RE, 4) stem-changing verb, and 5) irregular.   The majority of French verbs are regular -ER verbs.

The verb form that ends in -ER is called the infinitive (in English, we form the infinitive by using the word “to” + the verb).  The verb with the infinitive ending removed is called the stem or the radical. To conjugate -ER verbs, remove the infinitive ending to find the stem and then add the regular ending.
