Future Tense - Latin Verbs

Conjugations matter for Latin verbs, especially in future tense, because

• 1st and 4th have different endings from 2nd and 3rd

• All look alike except for 3rd conjugation

• each one has totally different endings

• 1st and 2nd have different endings from 3rd and 4th

You can tell what conjugation a verb is in by looking at the

• 1st person singular

• infinitive

• first part of the dictionary entry

• last part of the dictionary entry

2nd and 3rd conjugation verbs both end in -ere in the infinitive, but

• 2nd has a long -ere and 3rd has a short -ere

• 2nd has a short -ere and 3rd has a long -ere

• 2nd has an -a before it

• 3rd has an -i before it
