[safe ravine]

yes. the verb always needs to be conjugated for the subject

[cosmic cipher]

so would this make grammatical sense "je leur a parle"

[safe ravine]

je leur a parlé, but yeah

[cosmic cipher]

and that would be passe compose correct

[safe ravine]

yes

[cosmic cipher]

Passé composé is the auxiliary (avoir/être) conjugated in the present tense + the past participle

[real turret]

If you want to translate any verb in the passée composée , here's a useful tip.
1/take the verb you wanna conjugate in present (ex:trouver)
2/conjugate in the 1st person plural (ex:trouvons)
3/take off the presents terminaisons (ex: trouv)
4/replace it with the passée composée's terminaison (ex:trouvions)

WARNING this technic doesn't work with the verb "être"

[safe ravine]

That's not the passé composé, that's imparfait.

Passé composé is auxiliary (avoir or être) + past participle

[halcyon mulch]

il se trompa

[real turret]

Oh yeah
