Participles Ch 23

Forming Participles In Latin there are 4 different kinds of participles--2 in the active voice and 2 in the passive voice. In order to form the participle you must know which stem to use, in other words which of the 4 principle parts you look at to find the proper stem. For the present active and the future passive it's the 2nd principal part (present infinitive). For the perfect passive and the future active it's the 4th principal part (perf. passive participle) The chart that seen in the text (pg. 147): Active Passive Present: present stem + -ns/-ntis -------Perfect: -----participial stem + -us, -a, -um Future: participial stem+ -ūrus, -ūra, -ūrum present stem + -ndus, -nda, -ndum ago, agere, egi, actum = to act /set into motion /drive Active Passive Present: agēns/agentis -------Perfect: -----actus, -a, -um Future: actūrus, -ūra, -ūrum agendus, -nda, -ndumNow you practice forming the complete participial system of a verb: ducō, ducere, duxi, ductum = to lead Active Passive PRESENT ____________________ ____________________ PERFECT ____________________ ____________________ FUTURE ____________________ ____________________ liberō, liberāre, liberāvi, liberātum = to free Active Passive PRESENT ____________________ ____________________ PERFECT ____________________ ____________________ FUTURE ____________________ ____________________
