  3. Principal parts are needed so that we can form a verb in all its tenses. If you didn’t know the principal parts of the verb ‘grow’, you would say, “I growed three inches this year!”

  4. How many principal parts do regular English verbs have? How many principal parts do Latin verbs have? Answer the question before you click!

  5. English verbs have three principal parts. Here are a few English verbs with irregular principal parts.PRESENT PAST PAST PARTICIPLEarise arose arisenbecome became becomebegin began begunbite bit bittenbleed bled bledblow blew blownbreak broke brokenbring brought broughtbuild built built

  6. Latin verbs have four principal parts. You must memorize the first three. It is suggested that you memorize the fourth. Many derivatives come from the fourth principal part. Also, if you plan to go on in Latin, it is easier to memorize the fourth principal part along with the other forms.

  9. Other conjugations are not quite so nice. But… if you remember an X-tra long SUV, you will see that there are some patterns to the 3rd principal part.
