Principle Parts • All regular verbs have 4 principle parts • Principle parts is just a fancy term for the 4 forms of the verb given in the vocab entry • The principle parts of the verb are the 4 forms that you need in order to create all the other forms of that verb • English verbs also have principle parts, but you don’t learn them that way
What each principle part does: • 1st = 1st person, singular, present tense • This is the “I” form of the verb: I walk, I sit, I talk • 2nd = infinitive • This is the “to” form of the verb: to walk, to sit • We use this form to make other forms of the verb • 3rd = 1st person, singular, past tense • This is the “I” form of the verb: I walked, I sat, I talked • 4th = perfect passive participle
For Example • amō, amāre, amavī, amatus amō = I love amāre = to love amavī = I loved (but I’m not now) amatus = having been loved
Plus Exempla • laudō, laudāre, laudavī, laudatus laudō = I praise laudāre = to praise laudavī = I praised laudatus = having been praised
Plus Exempla • habeō, habēre, habuī, habitus habeō = I have, hold habēre = to have, hold habuī = I had, held habitus = having been held
Plus Exempla • videō, vidēre, vidī, visus videō = I see vidēre = to see vidī = I saw visus = having been seen
Plus Exempla • vendō, vendere, vendidī, venditus vendō = I sell vendere = to sell vendidī = I sold venditus = having been sold
