To Take, Eat or Drink

Prendre-to take, eat or drink (prawn-druh) Boire-to drink (bwahr)
prends prawn prenons pruh-nohn bois bwah buvons bew-vohn
prends prawn prenez pru-nay bois bwah buvez bew-vay
prend prawn prennent prenn boit bwah boivent bwahv

Other verbs that are conjugated like prendre:  apprendre - to learn, comprendre - to understand and surprendre - to surprise.

Note:  When you want to say "I am having wine," the French translation is "Je prends du vin."  You must use de and le, la, l', or les and the proper contractions (called partitives) because in French you must also express some.  So "je prends de la bière" literally means "I am having some beer" even though in English we would usually only say I am having beer.  

Manger is a regular verb meaning "to eat," but manger is used in a general sense, such as Je mange le poulet tous les samedis.  I eat chicken every Saturday.  Boire is literally the verb to drink and is also used in a general sense only. Je bois du vin tout le temps.  I drink wine all the time.
