用户:Aetherlur/Latina conj.

Template:Latin grammar Latin verbs have four main patterns of conjugation. As in a number of other languages, Latin verbs have an active voice and a passive voice. Furthermore, there exist deponent and semi-deponent Latin verbs (verbs with a passive form but active meaning), as well as defective verbs (verbs with a perfect form but present meaning). Sometimes the verbs of the third conjugation with a present stem on -ǐ are regarded as a separate pattern of conjugation, and are called the fifth conjugation.

Conjugation is the creation of derived forms of a verb from basic forms or principal parts. It may be affected by person, number, gender, tense, mood, voice or other language-specific factors. When, for example, we use a verb to function as the action done by a subject, many languages require conjugating the verb to reflect that meaning.

In a dictionary, Latin verbs are always listed with four principal parts which allow the reader to deduce the other conjugated forms of the verbs. These are:

  1. the first person singular of the present indicative active
  2. the present active infinitive
  3. the first person singular of the perfect indicative active
  4. the supine or, in some texts, the perfect passive participle, which is nearly always identical. Texts that commonly list the perfect passive participle use the future active participle for intransitive verbs. Some verbs lack this principal part altogether.

For simple verb paradigms, see the appendix pages for first conjugation, second conjugation, third conjugation, and fourth conjugation.

Properties

编辑

Latin verbs have the following properties:

  • two aspects: perfective (finished) and imperfective (unfinished)
  • six tenses: Present, Imperfect, Future, Perfect, Pluperfect, Future Perfect
  • two voices: active voice and passive voice

Conjugations

编辑

There are four conjugations in Latin which define patterns of verb inflection. However the grouping in conjugations is based solely on the behaviour of the verb in the present system, and the stems for other forms cannot be inferred from the present stem, so several forms of the verb are necessary to be able to produce the full range of Latin verbal forms. Most Latin verbs belong to one of the four verb conjugations, though some, like esse (to be), do not.

First conjugation

编辑

The first conjugation is characterized by the vowel ā and can be recognized by the -āre ending of the present active infinitive form. The principal parts usually adhere to one of the following patterns:

  • perfect has the suffix –āvī. The vast majority of first-conjugation verbs adhere to this pattern, which is considered to be "regular". Examples:
    • portō, portāre, portāvī, portātus (to carry, to bring)
    • amō, amāre, amāvī, amātus (to love, to be fond of)
  • perfect has the suffix –uī. Examples:
    • secō, secāre, secuī, sectus (to cut, to divide)
    • fricō, fricāre, fricuī, frictus (to rub)
    • vetō, vetāre, vetuī, vetitus (to forbid, to prohibit)
  • perfect has the suffix –ī and vowel lengthening in the stem. Examples:
    • lavō, lavāre, lāvī, lautus (to wash, to bathe)
    • iuvō, iuvāre, iūvī, iūtus (to help, to assist)
  • perfect is reduplicated. Examples:
    • stō, stāre, stetī, status (to stand)
    • dō, dare, dedī, datus (to give, to bestow; this verb is irregular)

Second conjugation

编辑

The second conjugation is characterized by the vowel ē, and can be recognized by the -eō ending of the first person present indicative and the -ēre ending of the present active infinitive form. The principal parts usually adhere to one of the following patterns:

  • perfect has the suffix –uī. Verbs which adhere to this pattern are considered to be "regular". Examples:
    • terreō, terrēre, terruī, territus (to frighten, to deter)
    • doceō, docēre, docuī, doctus (to teach, to instruct)
    • teneō, tenēre, tenuī, tentus (to hold, to keep)
  • perfect has the suffix –ēvī. Examples:
    • dēleō, dēlēre, dēlēvī, dēlētus (to destroy, to efface)
    • cieō, ciēre, cīvī, citus (to arouse, to stir)
  • perfect has the suffix –sī (which combines with a preceding c or g to –xī). Examples:
    • augeō, augēre, auxī, auctus (to increase, to enlarge)
    • iubeō, iubēre, iussī, iussus (to order, to bid)
  • perfect is reduplicated with –ī. Examples:
    • mordeō, mordēre, momordī, morsus (to bite, to nip)
    • spondeō, spondēre, spopondī, spōnsus (to vow, to promise)
  • perfect has suffix –ī and vowel lengthening in the stem. Examples:
    • videō, vidēre, vīdī, vīsus (to see, to notice)
    • foveō, fovēre, fōvī, fōtus (to caress, to cherish)
  • perfect has suffix –ī and no perfect passive participle. Examples:
    • strīdeō, strīdere, strīdī (to hiss, to creak)
    • ferveō, fervēre, fervī (sometimes fervuī) (to boil, to seethe)

Third conjugation

编辑

The third conjugation is characterized by a short thematic vowel, which alternates between e, i, and u in different environments. Verbs of this conjugation end in an –ere in the present active infinitive. There is no regular rule for constructing the perfect stem of third-conjugation verbs, but the following patterns are used:

  • perfect has suffix –sī or –xī. Examples:
    • carpō, carpere, carpsī, carptus (to pluck, to select)
    • trahō, trahere, trāxī, trāctus (to drag, to draw)
    • gerō, gerere, gessī, gestus (to wear, to bear)
    • flectō, flectere, flexī, flexus (to bend, to twist)
  • perfect is reduplicated with suffix –ī. Examples:
    • currō, currere, cucurrī, cursus (to run, to race)
    • caedō, caedere, cecīdī, caesus (to kill, to slay)
    • tangō, tangere, tetigī, tāctus (to touch, to hit)

    • agō, agere, ēgī, āctus (to do, to drive)
    • legō, legere, lēgī, lēctus (to collect, to read)
    • emō, emere, ēmī, ēmptus (to buy, to purchase)
    • vincō, vincere, vīcī, victus (to conquer, to master)
    • fundō, fundere, fūdī, fūsus (to pour, to utter)
  • perfect has suffix –ī only. Examples:
    • īcō, īcere, īcī, īctus (to strike, to smite)
    • vertō, vertere, vertī, versus (to turn, to alter)
    • vīsō, vīsere, vīsī, vīsus (to visit)

    • colō, colere, coluī, cultus (to cultivate, to till)
    • texō, texere, texuī, textus (to weave, to plait)
    • gignō, gignere, genuī, genitus (to beget, to cause)
  • present tense stem has suffix –u. Examples:
    • minuō, minuere, minuī, minūtus (to lessen, to diminish)
    • ruō, ruere, ruī, rutus (to collapse, to hurl down)
    • struō, struere, strūxī, strūctus (to build, to erect)
  • Present tense indicative first person singular form has suffix with –scō. Examples:
    • nōscō, nōscere, nōvī, nōtus (to investigate, to learn)
    • adolēscō, adolēscere, adolēvī (to grow up, to mature)
    • flōrēscō, flōrēscere, flōruī (to begin to flourish, to blossom)
    • haerēscō, haerēscere, haesī, haesus (to adhere, to stick)
    • pāscō, pāscere, pāvī, pāstus (to feed, to nourish)

Intermediate between the third and fourth conjugation are the third-conjugation verbs with suffix –iō. .

Fourth conjugation

编辑

The fourth conjugation is characterized by the vowel ī and can be recognized by the –īre ending of the present active infinitive. Principal parts of verbs in the fourth conjugation generally adhere to the following patterns:

  • perfect has suffix –vī. Verbs which adhere to this pattern are considered to be "regular". Examples:
    • audiō, audīre, audīvī, audītus (to hear, listen (to))
    • mūniō, mūnīre, mūnīvī, mūnītus (to fortify, to build)
  • perfect has suffix –uī. Examples:
    • aperiō, aperīre, aperuī, apertus (to open, to uncover)
  • perfect has suffix –sī or –xī. Examples:
    • saepiō, saepīre, saepsī, saeptus (to surround, to enclose)
    • sanciō, sancīre, sānxī, sānctus (to confirm, to ratify)
    • sentiō, sentīre, sēnsī, sēnsus (to feel, to perceive)
  • perfect has suffix –ī and vowel lengthening in the stem. Examples:
    • veniō, venīre, vēnī, ventūrus (to come, to arrive)

Personal endings

编辑

Personal endings are used in all tenses. The present, imperfect, future, pluperfect and future perfect use the same personal endings in the active voice. However, the perfect, pluperfect and future perfect do not have personal endings in the passive voice as these are formed by a participle and part of esse. The perfect uses its own personal endings in the active voice.

Active voice Passive voice
Singular Plural Singular Plural
Present tense, etc. First person –ō, –m –mus –or, –r –mur
Second person –s –tis –ris –minī
Third person –t –nt –tur –ntur
Perfect First person –ī –imus
Second person –istī –istis
Third person –it –ērunt / -ēre

Tenses of the imperfective aspect

编辑

The tenses of the imperfective aspect are present, imperfect, and future tense. Verb forms in the imperfective aspect express an action that has (or had) not been completed. Consider for concreteness the following verbs:

  • the first conjugation verb portō, portāre, portāvī, portātum (to carry, to bring)
  • the second conjugation verb terreō, terrēre, terruī, territum (to frighten, to deter)
  • the third conjugation verb petō, petere, petīvī, petītum (to seek, to attack)
  • the fourth conjugation verb audiō, audīre, audīvī, audītum (to hear, to listen (to))

In all the conjugations except for the third conjugation, the –re is removed from the second principal part (for example, portāre without the suffix –re becomes portā–) to form the present stem, which is used for all of the tenses in the imperfective aspect. In the third conjugation, the –ō ending of the present indicative is dropped in order to form the present stem (for example, the present indicative form of regere is regō, and without the -ō it is the present stem, reg–).[1] Occasionally, the terminating vowel of the stem is lengthened and/or shortened, and sometimes completely changed. This is often true both in the third conjugation and in the subjunctive mood of all conjugations.

Present tense

编辑

The present tense (Latin tempus praesēns) is used to show an uncompleted action that happens in the current time. The present tense does not have a tense sign. Instead, the personal endings are added to the bare present stem. However, in this tense the thematic vowel, most notably the ě in the third conjugation, changes the most frequently.

Present indicative

编辑

The present indicative expresses general truths, facts, demands and desires. Most commonly, a verb like portō can be translated as "I carry," "I do carry," or "I am carrying". In all but the third conjugation, only the thematical vowel of the stem is used. In the third conjugation, the e is only used in the second person singular in the passive for a less difficult pronunciation. Otherwise, it becomes either an i or u. The first person singular of the indicative active present is the first principal part. All end in –ō.

Present active indicative
portāre terrēre petere audīre
Singular Plural Singular Plural Singular Plural Singular Plural
First Person portō portāmus terreō terrēmus petō petimus audiō audīmus
Second Person portās portātis terrēs terrētis petis petitis audīs audītis
Third Person portat portant terret terrent petit petunt audit audiunt

Add the passive endings to form the passive voice. The passive portor can be translated as "I am carried," or "I am being carried".

Present passive indicative
portāre terrēre petere audīre
Singular Plural Singular Plural Singular Plural Singular Plural
First person portor portāmur terreor terrēmur petor petimur audior audīmur
Second person portāris portāminī terrēris terrēminī peteris petiminī audīris audīminī
Third person portātur portantur terrētur terrentur petitur petuntur audītur audiuntur

Notice that in the second person singular of petere, the thematic vowel is e (peteris, not petiris).

Present subjunctive

编辑

The present subjunctive may be used to assert many things. In general, in independent sentences, it is translated hortatorily (only in the third person plural), jussively and optatively. Portem can be translated as "Let me carry." or "May I carry." Portēmus can be "Let us carry".

Some alterations have occurred in the vowels from the indicative and subjunctive.

  • The first conjugation now uses an e and an ē.
  • The second conjugation uses ea and eā.
  • The third conjugation uses a or ā.
  • The fourth conjugation uses ia or iā.

"We read an encyclopedia", "Defeat all liars", or "She wears a diamond/tiara" are helpful mnemonics for remembering this. First conjugation verbs have an "e" in their stem (we), second conjugation verbs have an "-ea" (eat), third conjugation verbs have an "a" (caviar), and fourths have an "ia" (caviar). Other acceptable mnemonics include she reads a diary, he beats a liar, everybody eats apple iambics, let’s steal a fiat, he cheats a friar, or Clem eats clams in Siam.

Present active subjunctive
portāre terrēre petere audīre
Singular Plural Singular Plural Singular Plural Singular Plural
First person portem portēmus terream terreāmus petam petāmus audiam audiāmus
Second person portēs portētis terreās terreātis petās petātis audiās audiātis
Third person portet portent terreat terreant petat petant audiat audiant

Like the indicative, active personal endings may be replaced by passive personal endings. Porter can be translated as "Let me be carried" or "May I be carried." Hortatorily, Portēmur can be "Let us be carried".

Present passive subjunctive
portāre terrēre petere audīre
Singular Plural Singular Plural Singular Plural Singular Plural
First person porter portēmur terrear terreāmur petar petāmur audiar audiāmur
Second person portēris portēminī terreāris terreāminī petāris petāminī audiāris audiāminī
Third person portētur portentur terreātur terreantur petātur petantur audiātur audiantur

Present imperative

编辑

The present imperative conveys commands, pleas and recommendations. Portā can be translated as "(You) Carry" or simply, "Carry". The imperative present occurs only in the second person.

  • The second person singular in the active voice uses only the bare stem, and does not add an imperative ending.
Present active imperative
portāre terrēre petere audīre
Singular Plural Singular Plural Singular Plural Singular Plural
Second person portā portāte terrē terrēte pete petite audī audīte

The imperative present of the passive voice is rarely used, except in the case of deponent verbs, whose passive forms carry active meaning. Portāminī can be translated as "(You) Be carried". The deponent sequīminī, on the other hand, means "(You) Follow!".

  • The singular uses the alternate form of the present passive indicative (which looks like the present active infinitive) and the plural uses the present passive indicative form of the second person plural.
Present passive imperative
portāre terrēre petere audīre
Singular Plural Singular Plural Singular Plural Singular Plural
Second person portāre portāminī terrēre terrēminī petere petiminī audīre audīminī

Imperfect

编辑

The imperfect (Latin tempus imperfectum) indicates a perpetual, but incomplete action in the past. It is recognized by the tense signs bǎ and bā in the indicative, and re and rē in the subjunctive.

Imperfect indicative

编辑

The imperfect indicative simply expresses an action in the past that was not completed. Portābam can be translated to mean, "I was carrying," "I carried," or "I used to carry".

  • In the indicative, the imperfect employs its tense signs ba and bā before personal endings are added.
Imperfect active indicative
portāre terrēre petere audīre
Singular Plural Singular Plural Singular Plural Singular Plural
First person portābam portābāmus terrēbam terrēbāmus petēbam petēbāmus audiēbam audiēbāmus
Second person portābās portābātis terrēbās terrēbātis petēbās petēbātis audiēbās audiēbātis
Third person portābat portābant terrēbat terrēbant petēbat petēbant audiēbat audiēbant

As with the present tense, active personal endings are taken off, and passive personal endings are put in their place. Portābar can be translated as "I was being carried," "I kept being carried," or "I used to be carried".

Imperfect passive indicative
portāre terrēre petere audīre
Singular Plural Singular Plural Singular Plural Singular Plural
First person portābar portābāmur terrēbar terrēbāmur petēbar petēbāmur audiēbar audiēbāmur
Second person portābāris portābāminī terrēbāris terrēbāminī petēbāris petēbāminī audiēbāris audiēbāminī
Third person portābātur portābantur terrēbātur terrēbantur petēbātur petēbantur audiēbātur audiēbantur

Imperfect subjunctive

编辑

In the subjunctive, the imperfect is quite important, especially in subordinate clauses. Independently, it is largely translated conditionally. Portārem can mean, "I should carry," or "I would carry".

  • Unlike the indicative, the subjunctive does not modify the thematic vowel. The third conjugation's thematical remains short as an e, and the fourth conjugation does not use an iē before the imperfect signs. It keeps its ī.
  • In the subjunctive, the imperfect employs its tense signs re and rē before personal endings.
  • The verb esse (to be) has two imperfect subjunctives: one using the present infinitive (essem, esses, esset, essemus, essetis, essent) and one using the future infinitive (forem, fores, foret, foremus, foretis, forent).
Imperfect active subjunctive
portāre terrēre petere audīre
Singular Plural Singular Plural Singular Plural Singular Plural
First person portārem portārēmus terrērem terrērēmus peterem peterēmus audīrem audīrēmus
Second person portārēs portārētis terrērēs terrērētis peterēs peterētis audīrēs audīrētis
Third person portāret portārent terrēret terrērent peteret peterent audīret audīrent

As with the indicative subjunctive, active endings are removed, and passive endings are added. Portārer may be translated as "I should be carried," or "I would be carried."

Imperfect passive subjunctive
portāre terrēre petere audīre
Singular Plural Singular Plural Singular Plural Singular Plural
First person portārer portārēmur terrērer terrērēmur peterer peterēmur audīrer audīrēmur
Second person portārēris portārēminī terrērēris terrērēminī peterēris peterēminī audīrēris audīrēminī
Third person portārētur portārentur terrērētur terrērentur peterētur peterentur audīrētur audīrentur

Future tense

编辑

The future tense (Latin tempus futūrum simplex) expresses an uncompleted action in the future. It is recognized by its tense signs bō, bi, bu, a and ē in the indicative and the vowel ō in the imperative mood.

Future indicative

编辑

The future tense always refers to an incomplete action. In addition, the future tense is stricter in usage temporally in Latin than it is in English. Standing alone, portābō can mean, "I shall carry," or "I will carry."

  • The first and second conjugations use bō, bi and bu as signs for the future indicative.
  • The third and fourth conjugations replace their thematic vowels with a, ě and ē. The fourth conjugation inserts an ǐ before the a, e and ē.
Future active indicative
portāre terrēre petere audīre
Singular Plural Singular Plural Singular Plural Singular Plural
First person portābō portābimus terrēbō terrēbimus petam petēmus audiam audiēmus
Second person portābis portābitis terrēbis terrēbitis petēs petētis audiēs audiētis
Third person portābit portābunt terrēbit terrēbunt petet petent audiet audient

As with all imperfective system tenses, active personal endings are removed, and passive personal endings are put on. Portābor translates as, "I shall be carried."

Future passive indicative
portāre terrēre petere audīre
Singular Plural Singular Plural Singular Plural Singular Plural
First person portābor portābimur terrēbor terrēbimur petar petēmur audiar audiēmur
Second person portāberis portābiminī terrēberis terrēbiminī petēris petēminī audiēris audiēminī
Third person portābitur portābuntur terrēbitur terrēbuntur petētur petentur audiētur audientur

Notice that the penultimate vowel in the second person singular of portāre and terrēre is e, not i (portāberis and terrēberis, instead of the expected portābiris and terrēbiris).

Future imperative

编辑

The so-called future imperative was an archaic and formal form of the imperative; by the classical period, it was chiefly used in legal documents and the like. A few irregular or defective verbs (meminisse 'remember') used this form as their only imperative.

Portātō can be translated as "You shall carry".

  • As mentioned previously, the vowel ō is used as a sign of the future imperative.
Future active imperative
portāre terrēre petere audīre
Singular Plural Singular Plural Singular Plural Singular Plural
Second person portātō portātōte terrētō terrētōte petitō petitōte audītō audītōte
Third person portātō portantō terrētō terrentō petitō petuntō audītō audiuntō

The letter R is used to designate the passive voice in the future imperative. The second person plural is absent here. Portātor translates as "You shall be carried."

Future passive imperative
portāre terrēre petere audīre
Singular Plural Singular Plural Singular Plural Singular Plural
Second person portātor —— terrētor —— petitor —— audītor ——
Third person portātor portantor terrētor terrentor petitor petuntor audītor audiuntor

Perfective aspect tenses

编辑

The tenses of the perfective aspect, which are the perfect, pluperfect and future perfect tenses, are used to express actions that have been, had been, or will have been completed. The verbs used for explanation are:

1st Conjugation: portō, portāre, portāvī, portātum – to carry, bring
2nd Conjugation: terreō, terrēre, terruī, territum – to frighten, deter
3rd Conjugation: petō, petere, petīvī, petītum – to seek, attack
4th Conjugation: audiō, audīre, audīvī, audītum – to hear, listen (to)

For all conjugations, the –ī is removed from the third principal part. For example, from portāvī, portāv is formed. This is the perfect stem, and it is used for all of the tenses in the perfective aspect. The perfective aspect verbs also use the perfect passive participle in the passive voice. See below to see how it is formed. Along with these participles, the verb esse, which means, "to be", is used.

Unlike the imperfective aspect, inflection does not deviate from conjugation to conjugation.

Perfect

编辑

The perfect (Latin tempus perfectum) refers to an action completed in the past. Tense signs are only used in this tense with the indicative. The tense signs of the subjunctive are eri and erī.

Perfect indicative

编辑

The indicative perfect expresses a finished action in the past. If the action were not finished, but still lies in the past, one would use the imperfect. Portāvī is translated as "I carried," "I did carry," or "I have carried."

  • As aforementioned, the indicative perfect in the active voice has its special personal endings.
Perfect active indicative
portāre terrēre petere audīre
Singular Plural Singular Plural Singular Plural Singular Plural
First Person portāvī portāvimus terruī terruimus petīvī petīvimus audīvī audīvimus
Second Person portāvistī portāvistis terruistī terruistis petīvistī petīvistis audīvistī audīvistis
Third Person portāvit portāvērunt terruit terruērunt petīvit petīvērunt audīvit audīvērunt

In the passive voice, the perfect passive participle is used with the auxiliary verb esse. It uses the present indicative form of esse. Portātus sum translates as "I was carried," or "I have been carried."

Perfect passive indicative
portāre terrēre petere audīre
Singular Plural Singular Plural Singular Plural Singular Plural
First Person portātus sum portātī sumus territus sum territī sumus petītus sum petītī sumus audītus sum audītī sumus
Second Person portātus es portātī estis territus es territī estis petītus es petītī estis audītus es audītī estis
Third Person portātus est portātī sunt territus est territī sunt petītus est petītī sunt audītus est audītī sunt

Perfect subjunctive

编辑

Like the imperfect subjunctive, the perfect subjunctive is largely used in subordinate clauses. Independently, it is usually translated as the potential subjunctive. By itself, portāverim translates as "I may have carried."

  • The tense signs eri and erī are used before the personal endings are added.
Perfect active subjunctive
portāre terrēre petere audīre
Singular Plural Singular Plural Singular Plural Singular Plural
First Person portāverim portāverīmus terruerim terruerīmus petīverim petīverīmus audīverim audīverīmus
Second Person portāverīs portāverītis terruerīs terruerītis petīverīs petīverītis audīverīs audīverītis
Third Person portāverit portāverint terruerit terruerint petīverit petīverint audīverit audīverint

The passive voice uses the perfect passive participle with the subjunctive present forms of esse. Portātus sim means, "I may have been carried."

Perfect passive subjunctive
portāre terrēre petere audīre
Singular Plural Singular Plural Singular Plural Singular Plural
First Person portātus sim portātī sīmus territus sim territī sīmus petītus sim petītī sīmus audītus sim audītī sīmus
Second Person portātus sīs portātī sītis territus sīs territī sītis petītus sīs petītī sītis audītus sīs audītī sītis
Third Person portātus sit portātī sint territus sit territī sint petītus sit petītī sint audītus sit audītī sint

Pluperfect

编辑

The pluperfect (Latin tempus plūs quam perfectum) expresses an action which was completed before another completed action. It is recognized by the tense signs era and erā in the indicative and isse and issē in the subjunctive.

Pluperfect indicative

编辑

As with English, in Latin, the pluperfect indicative is used to assert an action that was completed before another (perfect). Portāveram translates as "I had carried."

  • The tense sign erā is employed before adding the personal endings, with the long ā following the usual rules for shortening before final -m, -t, and -nt.
Pluperfect active indicative
portāre terrēre petere audīre
Singular Plural Singular Plural Singular Plural Singular Plural
First Person portāveram portāverāmus terrueram terruerāmus petīveram petīverāmus audīveram audīverāmus
Second Person portāverās portāverātis terruerās terruerātis petīverās petīverātis audīverās audīverātis
Third Person portāverat portāverant terruerat terruerant petīverat petīverant audīverat audīverant

In the passive voice, the perfect passive participle is used with esse in the imperfect indicative. Portātus eram is translated as "I had been carried."

Pluperfect passive indicative
portāre terrēre petere audīre
Singular Plural Singular Plural Singular Plural Singular Plural
First Person portātus eram portātī erāmus territus eram territī erāmus petītus eram petītī erāmus audītus eram audītī erāmus
Second Person portātus erās portātī erātis territus erās territī erātis petītus erās petītī erātis audītus erās audītī erātis
Third Person portātus erat portātī erant territus erat territī erant petītus erat petītī erant audītus erat audītī erant

Pluperfect subjunctive

编辑

The pluperfect subjunctive is to the perfect subjunctive as the imperfect subjunctive is to the present subjunctive. Simply put, it is used with the perfect subjunctive in subordinate clauses. Like the imperfect subjunctive, it is translated conditionally independently. Portāvissem is translated as "I should have carried," or "I would have carried."

  • The tense signs isse and issē are used before the personal endings.
Pluperfect active subjunctive
portāre terrēre petere audīre
Singular Plural Singular Plural Singular Plural Singular Plural

Third Person portāvisset portāvissent terruisset terruissent petīvisset petīvissent audīvisset audīvissent

As always, the passive voice uses the perfect passive participle. The imperfect subjunctive of esse is used here. Portātus essem may mean "I should have been carried," or "I could have been carried," in the conditional sense.

Future perfect

编辑

The least used of all the tenses, the future perfect (Latin tempus futūrum exāctum) conveys an action that will have been completed before another action. It is signified by the tense signs erō and eri. The future perfect is the only tense that occurs in a single mood.

Future perfect indicative

编辑

As said, the future perfect is used to mention an action that will have been completed in futurity before another action. It is often used with the future tense. In simple translation, portāverō means, "I will have carried," or "I shall have carried."

  • The tense signs erō and eri are used before the personal endings.
Future perfect active indicative
portāre terrēre petere audīre
Singular Plural Singular Plural Singular Plural Singular Plural
First Person portāverō portāverimus terruerō terruerimus petīverō petīverimus audīverō audīverimus
Second Person portāveris portāveritis terrueris terrueritis petīveris petīveritis audīveris audīveritis
Third Person portāverit portāverint terruerit terruerint petīverit petīverint audīverit audīverint

As with all perfective aspect tenses, the perfect passive participle is used in the passive voice. However, the future perfect uses the future indicative of esse as the auxiliary verb. Portātus erō is "I will have been carried," or "I shall have been carried."

Future perfect passive indicative
portāre terrēre petere audīre
Singular Plural Singular Plural Singular Plural Singular Plural
First Person portātus erō portātī erimus territus erō territī erimus petītus erō petītī erimus audītus erō audītī erimus

Third Person portātus erit portātī erunt territus erit territī erunt petītus erit petītī erunt audītus erit audītī erunt

Non-finite forms

编辑

The non-finite forms of verbs are participles, infinitives, supines, gerunds and gerundives. The verbs used are:

1st Conjugation: portō, portāre, portāvī, portātum – to carry, bring
2nd Conjugation: terreō, terrēre. terruī, territum – to frighten, deter
3rd Conjugation: petō, petere, petīvī, petītum – to seek, attack
4th Conjugation: audiō, audīre, audīvī, audītum – to hear, listen (to)

Participles

编辑
参见：Participle

There are three participles: present active, perfect passive and future active.

  • The present active participle is declined like a third declension adjective with one ending.
    • In the first and second conjugations, the present active is formed by taking the present stem and adding an –ns. The genitive singular form adds an –ntis, and the thematicals ā and ē are shortened.
    • In the third conjugation, the e of the present stem is lengthened. In the genitive, the ē is short again.
    • In the fourth conjugation, the ī is shortened, and an ē is placed. Of course, this ē is short in the genitive.
    • Puer portāns translates into "carrying boy."
  • The perfect passive participle is declined like a first and second declension adjective.
    • In all conjugations, the perfect participle is formed by taking the –um from the supine, and adding a –us (masculine nominative singular).
    • Puer portātus translates into "carried boy."
  • The future active participle is declined like a first and second declension adjective.
    • In all conjugations the –um is removed from the supine, and an –ūrus (masculine nominative singular) is added.
    • Puer portātūrus translates into "boy going to carry," or "boy who is going to carry."
Participles
portāre terrēre petere audīre
Present Active portāns, –antis terrēns, –entis petēns, –entis audiēns, –entis
Perfect Passive portātus, –a, –um territus, –a, –um petītus, –a, –um audītus, –a, –um
Future Active portātūrus, –a, –um territūrus, –a, –um petītūrus, –a, –um audītūrus, –a, –um

Infinitives

编辑
参见：Infinitive

There are six infinitives. They are in the present active, present passive, perfect active, perfect passive, future active and future passive.

  • The present active infinitive is the second principal part (in regular verbs). It plays an important role in the syntactic construction of Accusativus cum infinitivo, for instance.
    • Portāre means, "to carry."
  • The present passive infinitive is formed by adding a –rī to the present stem. This is only so for the first, second and fourth conjugations. In the third conjugation, the thematical vowel, e, is taken from the present stem, and an –ī is added.
    • Portārī translates into "to be carried."
  • The perfect active infinitive is formed by adding an –isse onto the perfect stem.
    • Portāvisse translates into "to have carried."
  • The perfect passive infinitive uses the perfect passive participle along with the auxiliary verb esse. The perfect passive infinitive must agree with what it is describing in number and gender.
    • Portātus esse means, "to have been carried."
  • The future active infinitive uses the future active participle with the auxiliary verb esse.
    • Portātūrus esse means, "to be going to carry." The future active infinitive must agree with what it is describing in number and gender.
    • Esse has two future infinitives: futurus esse and fore (fore is mostly used in a substitute expression for the Future Passive Infinitive)
  • The future passive infinitive uses the supine with the auxiliary verb īrī.
    • Portātum īrī is translated as "to be going to be carried." This is normally used in indirect speech. For example: Omnēs senātōres dīxērunt templum conditum īrī. "All of the senators said that a temple would be built."
Infinitives
portāre terrēre petere audīre
Present Active portāre terrēre petere audīre
Present Passive portārī terrērī petī audīrī
Perfect Active portāvisse terruisse petīvisse audīvisse
Perfect Passive portātus esse territus esse petītus esse audītus esse
Future Active portātūrus esse territūrus esse petītūrus esse audītūrus esse
Future Passive portātum īrī territum īrī petītum īrī audītum īrī
Here, masculine endings are used.

The Future Passive Infinitive was actually not very commonly used (Wheelock's Latin mentions it exists but makes it a point to avoid using it in any practice examples). In practice, the Romans themselves often used an alternate expression, "fore ut" followed by a subjunctive clause.

Supine

编辑
参见：Supine

The supine is the fourth principal part. It resembles a masculine noun of the fourth declension. Supines only occur in the accusative and ablative cases.

  • The accusative form ends in a –um, and is used with a verb of motion in order to show the purpose. Thus, it is only used with verbs like cedere, venīre, etc. The accusative form of a supine can also take an object if needed.
    • Pater vēnit portātum līberōs suōs. – The father came to carry his children.
  • The ablative, which ends in a –ū, is used with the Ablative of Specification.
    • Arma haec facillima portātū erant. – These arms were the easiest to carry.
Supine
portāre terrēre petere audīre
Accusative portātum territum petītum audītum
Ablative portātū territū petītū audītū

Gerund

编辑
参见：Gerund

The gerund is formed similarly to the present active participle. However, the –ns becomes an –ndus, and the preceding ā or ē is shortened. Gerunds are neuter nouns of the second declension, but the nominative case is not present. The gerund is a noun, meaning "the act of doing (the verb)", and forms a suppletive paradigm to the infinitive which cannot be declined. For example, the genitive form portandī can mean "of carrying", the dative form portandō can mean "to carrying", the accusative form portandum can mean "carrying", and the ablative form portandō can mean "by carrying", "in respect to carrying", etc.

Gerund
portāre terrēre petere audīre
Genitive portandī terrendī petendī audiendī
Dative portandō terrendō petendō audiendō
Accusative portandum terrendum petendum audiendum
Ablative portandō terrendō petendō audiendō
Locative portandō terrendō petendō audiendō

One common use of the gerund is with the preposition ad to indicate purpose. For example paratus ad oppugnandum could be translated as "ready to attack". However the gerund was avoided when an object was introduced, and a passive construction with the gerundive was preferred. For example for "ready to attack the enemy" the construction paratus ad hostes oppugnandos is preferred over paratus ad hostes oppugnandum.[2]

Gerundive

编辑
参见：Gerundive

The gerundive is the passive equivalent of the gerund, and much more common in Latin. It is a first and second declension adjective, and means, “(the verb) being done”. Often, the gerundive is used with an implicit esse, to show obligation.

  • Puer portandus “The boy to be carried”
  • Oratio laudanda est means, “The speech is to be praised.” In such constructions a substantive in dative may be used to name the agent of the obligation (dativus auctoris), like in Oratio nobis laudanda est meaning “The speech is to be praised by us” or “We must praise the speech”.
Gerundive
portāre terrēre petere audīre
portandus, –a, –um terrendus, –a, –um petendus, –a, –um audiendus, –a, –um

Periphrastic conjugations

编辑

There are two periphrastic conjugations. One is active, and the other is passive.

Active

编辑

The first periphrastic conjugation uses the future participle. It is combined with the forms of esse. It is translated as "I am going to carry," "I was going to carry", etc.

Conjugation Translation
Pres. Ind. portātūrus sum I am going to carry
Imp. Ind. portātūrus eram I was going to carry
Fut. Ind. portātūrus erō I shall be going to carry
Perf. Ind. portātūrus fuī I have been going to carry
Plup. Ind. portātūrus fueram I had been going to carry
Fut. Perf. Ind. portātūrus fuerō I shall have been going to carry
Pres. Subj. portātūrus sim I may be going to carry
Imp. Subj. portātūrus essem I should be going to carry
Perf. Subj. portātūrus fuerim I may have been going to carry
Plup. Subj. portātūrus fuissem I should have been going to carry

Passive

编辑

The second periphrastic conjugation uses the gerundive. It is combined with the forms of esse and expresses necessity. It is translated as "I am to be carried," "I was to be carried", etc., or as "I have to (must) be carried," "I had to be carried," etc.

Conjugation Translation
Pres. Ind. portandus sum I am to be carried
Imp. Ind. portandus eram I was to be carried
Fut. Ind. portandus erō I will deserve to be carried
Perf. Ind. portandus fuī I was to be carried
Plup. Ind. portandus fueram I had deserved to be carried
Fut. Perf. Ind. portandus fuerō I will have deserved to be carried
Pres. Subj. portandus sim I may deserve to be carried
Imp. Subj. portandus essem I should deserve to be carried
Perf. Subj. portandus fuerim I may have deserved to be carried
Plup. Subj. portandus fuissem I should have deserved to be carried
Pres. Inf. portandus esse To deserve to be carried
Perf. Inf. portandus fuisse To have deserved to be carried

Peculiarities

编辑

不规则动词

编辑

有几个拉丁语的动词不属于任何一组动词变位（比如 esse 和 posse），或者基于其中一组动词变位变化而成（比如 ferre, īre, 和dare）。这些动词包括以下列出的一个和一些合成词（比如 conferre）。很多不规则动词缺少第四个部分.

sum, esse, fuī, futūrum[1] – to be, exist
possum, posse[2], potuī – to be able, can
eō, īre, īvī / īī, ītum – to go
volō, velle, voluī – to wish, want
nōlō, nōlle, nōluī – to not want, refuse
mālō, mālle, māluī – to prefer
ferō, ferre, tulī, lātum – to bear, endure, carry, bring
fīō, fierī, factus sum – to become, happen, be made
edō, ēsse, ēdī, ēsum – to eat, waste
dō, dare, dedī, datum – to give, bestow

Deponent and semi-deponent verbs

编辑

Deponent verbs are verbs that are passive in form (that is, conjugated as though in the passive voice) but active in meaning. These verbs have only three principal parts, since the perfect of ordinary passives is formed periphrastically with the perfect participle, which is formed on the same stem as the supine. Some examples coming from all conjugations are:

1st Conjugation: mīror, mīrārī, mīrātus sum – to admire, wonder
2nd Conjugation: polliceor, pollicērī, pollicitus sum – to promise, offer
3rd Conjugation: loquor, loquī, locūtus sum – to speak, say
4th Conjugation: orior, orīrī, ortus sum – to rise, spring up

Deponent verbs use active conjugations for tenses that do not exist in the passive: the gerund, the supine, the present and future participles and the future infinitive. They cannot be used in the passive themselves, and their analogues with "active" form do not in fact exist: one cannot directly translate "The word is said" with any form of loquī, and there are no forms like loquō, loquis, loquit, etc.

Semi-deponent verbs form their imperfective aspect tenses in the manner of ordinary active verbs; but their perfect are built periphrastically like deponents and ordinary passives; thus semideponent verbs have a perfect active participle instead of a perfect passive participle. An example:

audeō, audēre, ausus sum – to dare, venture

Note: In the Romance languages, which lack deponent or passive verb forms, the Classical Latin deponent verbs either disappeared (being replaced with non-deponent verbs of a similar meaning) or changed to a non-deponent form. For example, in Spanish and Italian, mīrārī changed to mirar(e) by changing all the verb forms to the previously nonexistent "active form", and audeō changed to osar(e) by taking the participle ausus and making an -ar(e) verb out of it (note that au went to o).

Third conjugation –iō verbs

编辑

There is a rather prolific subset of important verbs within the third conjugation. They have an –iō present in the first principal part (–ior for deponents), and resemble the fourth conjugation in some forms. Otherwise, they are still conjugated as normal, third conjugation verbs. Thus, these verbs are called third conjugation –iō verbs or third conjugation i-stems. Some examples are:

capiō, capere, cēpī, captum – to take, seize, understand
cupiō, cupere, cupīvī, cupītum – to desire, long for
faciō, facere, fēcī, factum - to do, make
morior, morī[3], mortuus sum (dep.) – to die, decay
patior, patī, passus sum (dep.) – to suffer, undergo, endure
rapiō, rapere, rapuī, raptum - to plunder, take up, seize, snatch, carry away

They resemble the fourth conjugation in the following instances.

Present indicative (first person singular, third person plural) – capiō, capiunt, etc.
Indicative imperfect – capiēbam, capiēbāmus, etc.
Indicative future – capiam, capiēmus, etc.
Subjunctive present – capiam, capiāmus, etc.
Imperative future (third person plural) – capiuntō, etc.
Present Active Participle – capiēns, –entis
Gerund – capiendī, capiendum, etc.
Gerundive – capiendus, –a, –um

Defective verbs

编辑

Defective verbs are verbs that are conjugated in only some instances.

  • Some verbs are conjugated only in the perfective aspect's tenses, yet have the imperfective aspect's tenses' meanings. As such, the perfect becomes the present, the pluperfect becomes the imperfect, and the future perfect becomes the future. Therefore, the defective verb ōdī means, "I hate." These defective verbs' principal parts are given in vocabulary with the indicative perfect in the first person and the perfect active infinitive. Some examples are:
ōdī, ōdisse – to hate
meminī, meminisse – to remember
coepī, coepisse – to have begun
  • A few verbs, the meanings of which usually have to do with speech, appear only in certain occurrences.
Cedo (plur. cette), which means "Hand it over" or "Out with it" is only in the imperative mood, and only is used in the second person.

The following are conjugated irregularly:

Supine – (acc.) fātum, (abl.) fātū
Gerund – (gen.) fandī, (dat. and abl.) fandō, no accusative
Gerundive – fandus, –a, –um

The Romance languages lost many of these verbs, but others (such as ōdī) survived but became regular fully conjugated verbs (in Italian, odiare).

无人称动词

编辑

Impersonal verbs are those lacking a person. In English impersonal verbs are usually used with the neuter pronoun "it" (as in "It seems," or "It storms"). Latin uses the third person singular. These verbs lack a fourth principal part. A few examples are:

pluit, pluere, pluvit – to rain (it rains)
ningit, ningere, ninxit[5] – to snow (it snows)
oportet, oportēre, oportuit – to be proper (it is proper, one should/ought to)
licet, licēre, licuit – to be permitted [to] (it is allowed [to])

The third person forms of esse may also be seen as impersonal when seen from the perspective of English:

Nox aestīva calida fuit. – It was a hot, summer night.
Est eī quī terram colunt. – It is they who till the land.

不规则将来主动分词

编辑

对于普通的动词来说，去掉目的动名词的 -um 后加上 -ūrus 后缀就是将来主动分词的形式。但是有几个动词组成的将来主动分词是不规则的。

morī[6] mortuum moritūrus
orīrī ortum oritūrus

Alternative verb forms

编辑

Several verb forms may occur in alternative forms (in some authors these forms are fairly common, if not more common than the canonical ones):

  • The ending –ris in the passive voice may be –re as in:
portābāris → portābāre
  • The ending –ērunt in the perfect may be –ēre (primarily in poetry) as in:
portāvērunt → portāvēre

动词缩合

编辑

和大部分现代罗曼语一样，拉丁语的一些词有时候会缩合成更简短的形式。比如：

  • 以 -v 结尾的完成时词根在变位时可被缩合。
portāvisse → portāsse
portāvistī → portāstī
portāverant → portārant
portāvisset → portāsset
  • noscere (to learn) 和 movēre (to move, dislodge) 的合成词可被缩合。
novistī → nostī
novistis → nostis
commoveram → commoram
commoverās → commorās
