To put the sentence "Je communique avec le capitaine Arpot" in the past tense, you need to conjugate the verb "communiquer" and adjust the article "le" before "capitaine Arpot" to agree with the new tense.
Here is the past tense conjugation of the verb "communiquer" in the first person "je" form:
J'ai communiqué avec le capitaine Arpot.
In this sentence, "J'ai" is the past tense form of "Je" (I have) and "communiqué" is the past participle of the verb "communiquer" (to communicate).
Remember to also adjust the article "le" before "capitaine Arpot" to agree with the past tense form:
J'ai communiqué avec le capitaine Arpot.
So, "Je communique avec le capitaine Arpot" in the past tense is "J'ai communiqué avec le capitaine Arpot."
