Latin Assignment 26

 11 July 15:37   

    All Latin verbs are articular by four arch parts. By using the four arch parts, one can access any and all forms of the verb, including participles, infinitives, gerunds and the like.

    Examples of arch locations from verbs of anniversary conjugation:

    1st: ambulo, ambulare, ambulavi, ambulatum (to walk)

    2nd: doceo, docere, docui, doctum (to teach)

    3rd: mitto, mittere, misi, missum (to send)

    4th: audio, audire, audivi, auditum (to hear)

    For all approved verbs, the arch locations abide of the first being atypical present close form; the infinitive, the first being atypical absolute close form; and the collapsed (or in some texts, the absolute acquiescent participle).

    Deponent verbs accept alone three arch parts:

    patior, pati, passus sum (to suffer)

    utor, usi, usus sum (to use)

    Likewise, semi-deponent verbs accept alone three:

    audeo, audere, ausus sum (to dare)

    gaudeo, gaudere, gavisus sum (to rejoice)

    Some verbs may abridgement 4th arch parts; others may abridgement a 3rd in addition. Others such as manere may use the approaching alive participle as their fourth arch allotment (this indicates that the verb cannot be create passive).
