These verbs are also known as The House of Etre
When the pass compos is formed with Etre, the past participle behaves like an adjective. So, if you have a feminine subject (the doer of the verb), you must also have a feminine past participle. EgElle est all (feminine)eIf the subject is plural, the past participle must also be plural.EgIls sont all (masculine plural)sIl est all (masculine)BUTElles sont all (feminine plural)es
