Does comes before the verb in French?

That's a great question! It depends on what you mean by "comes before".

Here's a breakdown:

1. In general, the verb comes *after* the subject in French:

* Example: Je *mange* (I eat)

* Il *parle* (He speaks)

2. But, in some cases, the verb can come *before* the subject:

* In questions: *Est-ce que* tu *parles* français? (Do you speak French?)

* In negative sentences: Je *ne* *mange* pas. (I don't eat.)

* In certain verb tenses: *Avoir* tu *mangé*? (Have you eaten?)

3. For more complex sentences, the verb can be placed in different positions:

* In sentences with compound tenses, the auxiliary verb (like *avoir* or *être*) comes before the past participle: *J'ai* mangé (I have eaten).

* In sentences with two verbs, the first verb is often the auxiliary, and the second verb is the infinitive: *Je vais* manger (I am going to eat).
