Now, and habits. rappelle covers both "I call back, to remind" and "I am call back, to reminding" — French has no separate continuous form.
A completed past action. avoir conjugates and rappelé does not — ai rappelé.
An ongoing or habitual past. Built on the nous-present stem, so rappelons gives you rappelais.
About to happen. aller conjugates; rappeler never moves — the easier future to produce under pressure.
Will happen. Built on rappeller- — not the infinitive rappeler. The conditional reuses this stem.
What this table tells you about rappeler
The past participle is rappelé, and it takes avoir in the passé composé — so it never changes shape, whoever the subject is. No agreement to remember here.
The futur simple is built on rappeller-, which is not the infinitive rappeler. This stem has to be learned, and it is the same one the conditional uses later.
In both the present and the imparfait, je, tu, il/elle and ils/elles are one sound: rappelle, rappelles, rappellent — indistinguishable spoken. Only nous and vous carry an audible ending.
The imparfait is built on the nous-present stem, so once you know rappelons you already know rappelais, rappelait and rappelaient. Futur proche keeps rappeler untouched.
