Wheelock's Latin · Chapters 1–40 · 199 verbs

1st conjugation

1st conjugation — verbs with -ā- (long -a-) in the stem.

Example: amō, amāre, amāvī, amātumto love

  • Present stem: remove -re from the infinitive (amāre) → amā-.
  • Perfect stem: remove from the perfect (amāvī) → amāv-.

Most 1st conjugation verbs follow the pattern laudō, laudāre, laudāvī, laudātum. The long -ā- identifies the conjugation in the present, and the perfect typically forms with a -v- suffix.

2nd conjugation

2nd conjugation — verbs with -ē- (long -e-) in the stem.

Example: videō, vidēre, vīdī, vīsumto see

  • Present stem: remove -re from the infinitive (vidēre) → vidē-.
  • Perfect stem: remove from the perfect (vīdī) → vīd-.

2nd conjugation verbs usually show a long -ē- in the present stem. The perfect often adds -u- or lengthens the stem vowel: moneō, monēre, monuī, monitum; habeō, habēre, habuī, habitum; videō, vidēre, vīdī, vīsum.

3rd conjugation

3rd conjugation — verbs with a short -e- in the infinitive (-ere).

Example: dūcō, dūcere, dūxī, ductumto lead

  • Present stem: remove -re from the infinitive (dūcere) → dūce-dūc-.
  • Perfect stem: remove from the perfect (dūxī) → dūx-.

Many 3rd conjugation verbs change the stem in the perfect by adding -s-: scrībō, scrībere, scrīpsī, scrīptum; mittō, mittere, mīsī, missum. The present stem looks like mitt-, but the perfect stem is mīs-. A subset (3rd-iō) takes -iō endings: capiō, capere, cēpī, captum.

4th conjugation

4th conjugation — verbs with -ī- (long -i-) in the stem.

Example: audiō, audīre, audīvī, audītumto hear

  • Present stem: remove -re from the infinitive (audīre) → audī-.
  • Perfect stem: remove from the perfect (audīvī) → audīv-.

4th conjugation verbs show a long -ī- in the present stem. The perfect usually adds -īv-, or sometimes uses a shortened form: veniō, venīre, vēnī, ventum.

irr. irregular

Irregular verbs do not follow the normal conjugation patterns.

Example: sum, esse, fuī, futūrusto be

  • The present tense is completely irregular: sum, es, est, sumus, estis, sunt.
  • The perfect uses a different stem fu-: fuī, fuistī, fuit, etc.

Other high-frequency irregulars:

  • possum, posse, potuī — formed from pot- + sum, meaning “to be able”.
  • volō, velle, voluī — “to want”, with irregular present and perfect stems.

For irregular verbs, students simply memorise the key forms and their meanings instead of trying to build them from a regular present and perfect stem.

def. defective & deponent

Defective verbs lack some forms: they may be missing a present, an infinitive, or even an entire tense.

  • meminī — perfect in form (“I remembered”) but translated as present: “I remember.”
  • ōdī — perfect in form, present in meaning: “I hate.”
  • coepī, coepisse, coeptus — “I began”, normally used only in the perfect system.

Deponent verbs are passive in form but active in meaning. They are listed with their three principal parts ending in -or, -ī, -us sum.

  • patior, patī, passus sum — “to suffer, to endure.”
  • tueor, tuērī, tūtus sum — “to watch over, to protect.”
