  7. hab ē re hab o hab s hab t hab mus hab tis hab nt 2nd Conjugation - habēre e The “strong e” of the 2nd conjugation shows itself throughout the whole conjugation. e e e e e

  8. mitt e re mitt o mitt s mitt t mitt mus mitt tis mitt nt 3rd Conjugation - mittere The “weak e” of the 3rd conjugation never shows itself. Be sure to recite this strange pattern until you have it memorized well. i i i i u

  9. aud o aud s aud t aud mus aud tis aud nt 4th Conjugation - audire aud i re i The 4th conjugation has the “i” all the way down, but adds a “u” at the end. i i i i iu

  10. The 3rd -io • The 3rd –io is kind of a combination of 3rd and 4th conjugation • From the infinitive, you know for sure that it is a 3rd conjugation verb • Yet the 1st principle part ends in an “-io” instead of just an “-o” iacio, iacere the “-io” shows that it’s not a normal third “weak e” is always 3rd conj. continued…
