XII. Third Conjugation - Latin in Layman's (REVAMPED)

XII. Third Conjugation - Latin in Layman's (REVAMPED)

Published 4 years, 1 month ago
Description

Here are two important rules for you to remember:

  • (1) the thematic vowel in third conjugation is a short vowel; it appears as -i- or -u- in the present and -e- in the imperfect
  • (2) The tense sign for the future in third conjugation is -e-; the future tense in third conjugation uses no thematic vowel

Luckily, the formation of the present tense in third conjugation follows a pattern similar to that seen in first and second conjugation.

  • Take a third-conjugation verb base
  • add a thematic vowel (Which will be fairly irregular in this conjugation)
  • and to that, append personal endings.
