Read all about Conjugating Verbs!!!

Remember that while a declension is a family of Latin nouns, a conjugation is a family of Latin verbs. There are four conjugations
in Latin.
To conjugate a verb means to run it through its various forms in a specific tense. Setting up the process of conjugating always
begins in this way in English:
Verb:

Tense:
S

1st Person
2nd Person
3rd Person

I
you
he,she,it

we
you
they

Nowjust plug in the specific verb forms for that tense. Try the process with the verbs talk, carry, pass and magnify in the present
tense. What do you notice about the third person singular?
Principal Parts- English has Four Principal Parts to all verbs. They are the building blocks for all of the forms which the verb may
use. They are
Present
love

Present Participle
(is) loving

Past
loved

Past Participle
(has) loved

Remember: If an English verb forms its Past with an ed we call it a regular verb, if not, its an irregular verb. (What about run,
talk, give, push??)
Latin also has principal parts for its verbs. They are
Present
amo

Infinitive
amare

Perfect
amavi

Perfect Passive
amatus

Perfect Passive Participle

amatus

To conjugate the verb amo in the present tense, focus on the 1st Principal Part. Use the following chart of Latin verb endings (refer
to these as person endings):
S
PL
1st Per.
I
= o
we = mus
2nd Per.
you
= s
you = tis
3rd Per. he,she,it = t
they = nt
and the following recipe: To conjugate a verb in the present tense take the 1st Principal Part, knock off the o, add the magic
letter a, and then the personal ending. The only exception is the 1st person singular which is the 1st principal part.
The conjugation of amo in the present now looks like this:
1st Per.
2nd Per
3rd Per.

S
amo
amas
amat

PL
amamus
amatis
amant

The same pattern would work with any verb of the 1st conjugation.
Finally: Note that we have three forms of the present tense in English: the Simple Present, the Progressive Present, and the
Emphatic Present.
e.g I love, I am loving, I do love.
They would all be translated by the same word in Latin: amo. If you were going from
Latin to English, any of the three English translations would be correct.
