The taboo words are those written beneath the word at the top of the card. Teams score points for each word successfully guessed, and the team with the most points wins.

There are links to two of my videos on YouTube (one for the p.c. of regular verbs and one for irregular verbs, but both videos are only for verbs that use "avoir" as helping verb).
