How many tenses are there in french?

Answer:

le présent
l'imparfait
le passé composé ( le passé surcomposé as well)
le plus-que-parfait
le passé simple
le passé antérieur
le passé récent
le futur simple
le futur proche
le futur antérieur

This makes 10 in total, but sometimes Futur dans le passé is considered tense too. This is the so calle Le conditionnel, which is a mood rather than a tense.

The aforesaid tenses are in the indicative mood (l'indifcatif). The French moods are:

l'indicatif
l'impératif
le conditionnel
le subjonctif
