How to conjugate other verbs in passé compose:
In French, the end of the second verb changes from its infinitive form depending on the
type of verb you are using

This excludes irregular verbs like
'battre'

You just have to study

You must
put the reflexive or reciprocal pronoun between the subject and the être: Jean s'est
brossé les dents
...
This is to say that you must add -e if the subject is feminine and -s
if it is plural
...

went"
...
So, "I
have" will become "I am" (Je suis) and then you add the past participle, just like
we've done before, plus the agreement, if necessary
